Golem DJ
by Gjorgdy
Golem DJ lets Copper Golems carry music discs to jukeboxes, so a server can have golems that start and swap songs on their own.
What it does
Copper Golems can take a music disc and place it in a jukebox. A golem waits while a jukebox is already playing and does not replace the disc until the current one is removed. If a golem cannot find a jukebox, it sorts discs into a chest instead. The discs use the vanilla JUKEBOX_PLAYABLE component, so standard music discs from most other mods work with the golems as well.
The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Its behaviour is set in its own config file, which can be changed through the Fzzy Config mod, an optional dependency, or by editing the file directly. Configuration changes take effect after the vanilla reload command. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source. Its source code and issue tracker are public. Files cover 1.21.11 and 26.1.2 – 26.3, with 1.0.1+26.3 for 26.3 as the latest Fabric build.
Key features
Golem disc placement
Copper Golems take music discs and put them into jukeboxes, letting a world play songs without a player present.
Jukebox waiting
A golem holds its disc until the jukebox is empty, so an active song is never replaced mid-play.
Disc sorting
When no jukebox can be reached, golems store discs in a chest, keeping them organized.
Configurable behaviour
Options for disc handling and sorting are kept in a config file that the server can edit and reload.

Use cases
Automated music rooms
A server builder can place golems near several jukeboxes so that music changes across a base without manual input.
Disc storage hubs
Golems can gather spare discs into a chest, which keeps a collection tidy in a shared storage area.
Who it’s for: Server owners and builders who run Copper Golems and want them to handle music discs and jukeboxes. Single-player players can also use it on a local server.
How it compares
Faster Copper Golem is a Fabric mod for 1.21.9 – 26.3 that can run on a client, a server or both, and is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Copper Golem Hats is a server-required option on four loaders, released under the MIT License and not open source, for 1.21.9 – 26.1.2. Golem DJ is server-side only and does not change how golems move, so it is aimed at music rather than speed or looks.
