Last.fm

Link your Last.fm account to show what you're listening to, see your stats, and scrobble the songs you play with Skill's music player.

What is Last.fm?

Last.fm keeps a history of every song you listen to (each play is a "scrobble") and turns it into stats: top artists, play counts, listening streaks and more. It's free at last.fm/join.

To scrobble from Spotify, open your Last.fm settings, go to Applications and connect Spotify. Everything you play there then shows up on Last.fm by itself.

Linking your account

;fmlogin — Skill DMs you a login link
;fmlogout — unlink
  1. Run ;fmlogin. Skill sends the link in a DM so nobody else can use it.
  2. Open it and press Allow access on Last.fm.
  3. Done. ;fm now shows your current song.

If Skill can't DM you, turn on Direct Messages for the server (server name → Privacy Settings) and try again.

Now playing

;fm — your current (or last) song
;fm @member — someone else's
;fmcc <word> — a personal word that shows your now playing when you type it alone

Make it yours

;fmsetmessage Now playing for {user} — change the top line
;fmmode {title: ...}$v{description: ...} — a fully custom card, in embed script

Stats

;fmrecent — recent songs
;fmtop artists|albums|tracks [period] — your top lists
;fmcount · ;fmwhois · ;fmstreak
;fmplays <artist> · ;fmoverview <artist>
;fmmilestone <number> — which song was your Nth scrobble
;fmtaste @member — compare your taste
;fmrecommendation — an artist from your own library

Links for the current song

;fmspotify · ;fmyoutube · ;fmitunes · ;fmsoundcloud

All of these also work as /lastfm slash commands.

Scrobbling from the music player

When Skill plays music in a voice channel, everyone listening who linked Last.fm with ;fmlogin gets the song as now playing, and a scrobble once it has played for half its length (or 4 minutes). Deafened listeners don't scrobble.

;scrobble — check it
;scrobble off / ;scrobble on — turn it off or back on for you

;radio me plays a nonstop station built from your Last.fm top artists. See Spotify & music.

Common issues

  • Old song showing: Last.fm and Spotify can fall out of sync. Restart Spotify, or reconnect it under Last.fm → Settings → Applications.
  • Not scrobbling from the player: run ;scrobble. If it says you're linked by name only, run ;fmlogin again and press Allow.
  • Errors from every command: Last.fm itself may be down. Try again in a few minutes.
