24/7 mode keeps Percy permanently connected to a voice channel so your server always has music playing, even when no one is actively queuing tracks. Instead of disconnecting when the queue runs out, Percy refills audio from your chosen source automatically. This is ideal for music lounges, study rooms, or any server that benefits from continuous background audio.

The three 24/7 modes

Percy supports three distinct always-on sources. Pick the one that best fits how your server listens.

Radio

Streams a built-in radio preset continuously. No manual queue management needed — Percy pulls from a live audio stream around the clock.

Playlist

Loops one of your personal playlists on repeat. Great for a curated sound that reflects your server’s taste.

Autoplay

Uses YouTube recommendations seeded from a track or search query you provide. The queue grows organically from that starting point, following YouTube’s suggestion engine.

Setting up 24/7 mode

1

Open the music configuration dashboard (optional)

Run /music setup to open the interactive music configuration panel. From there you can set 24/7 mode, choose a voice channel, and adjust other music settings through a guided interface.
2

Activate radio mode

Pass a radio preset name to start streaming immediately. Percy joins your voice channel and begins playing the stream.
3

Activate playlist mode

Provide the name of one of your personal playlists. Percy loops through it continuously.
4

Activate autoplay mode

Provide a YouTube URL or a search query as the seed track. Percy plays that track first, then uses YouTube recommendations to keep the queue topped up indefinitely. Only YouTube links are accepted as seed URLs — for other platforms, use a plain search query instead.
5

Disable 24/7 mode

Turn off always-on mode at any time. Percy finishes the current track and then disconnects normally.

Radio presets

Percy ships with a curated set of radio streams sourced from SomaFM and Antenne Bayern. Use /music radios to see the full list at any time.

Switching modes

You can switch between modes at any time without turning 24/7 off first. Running a new /music 247 <mode> command replaces the current source immediately.
24/7 mode requires Percy to have the Connect and Speak permissions in the target voice channel. If Percy is missing either permission, it won’t be able to join or stay in the channel.
If a server admin manually disconnects Percy from the voice channel, 24/7 mode stops. You’ll need to run /music 247 <mode> again to restart it. Percy does not rejoin automatically after a forced disconnect.
Combine 24/7 playlist mode with a carefully curated personal playlist for the most consistent listening experience. You stay in full control of every track that plays.
