Animal Crossing: New Horizons — K.K. Slider's music guide (2024)

Animal Crossing: New Horizons — K.K. Slider's music guide (1)

Life without music is just dull. Fortunately, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has lots of music to choose from. Between catchy background music, to customizable Island Tunes, there are always happy songs playing on your island. However, the best songs come from K.K. Slider and we here at iMore know how to get every last one of them!

Who is K.K. Slider anyways?

K.K. Slider, also known as DJ K.K., Totakeke, or just K.K. for short, is the musical sensation of the Animal Crossing world. With few exceptions, if you hear music in Animal Crossing, K.K. probably wrote it. He's done music in countless genres and loves to do live concerts. Traveling the world with his guitar, this dog has music for everyone.

How do I get new K.K. Slider songs?

Most of K.K. Slider's extensive discography is available for purchase from Nook Shopping. Every day, a new song will be available for 3,200 Bells. You can purchase it for yourself (or a friend) and it will show up in your mail box the next day. Keep in mind, however, you can buy a song you already have, so keep track of your collection so you don't end up with duplicates. Here's how to buy songs:

  1. Go to Resident Services.

Some songs, however, can only be gained from K.K. himself. You might be wondering, "How do I get such a famous musician to come to my little island?" Fortunately, that's easy too! Once you've built and upgraded your Resident Services building, Tom Nook will explain that by improving your island you can convince K.K. Slider to play a concert there. If you get your island to a 3 star rating, K.K. will play a concert the very next day and return every Saturday for another concert.

When K.K. plays a concert, you can request a song from him. This can be a song at random, a song based on your mood, or a specific song, if you know the title. Once he plays your requested song, it will be in your inventory for you to register and listen to whenever you like. K.K. will also show up on your birthday to play a special song, K.K. Birthday, just for you.

How do I listen to songs once I've got them?

Once you have a song, you can register it on any radio, tape deck, or other music playing devices. This is also super easy, and once registered, you can access a song on any device you own. Here's how to register songs:
