− | [[File:Aircheck | + | [[File:Aircheck NH Inv Icon.png|thumb|right|The eighth-note icon used to represent K.K. Slider songs, as seen in {{NH|short|nolink}}]] |
+ | The {{SER}} features many '''songs performed by [[K.K. Slider]]'''. K.K. visits [[town]] on Saturday nights to perform live either a random song or a specific request from the player. During the performance, the game's staff credits play, and afterward, K.K. gives the player an aircheck of the song, which can be placed in a [[stereo]] furniture item to be played in the [[Player house|player's house]]. | ||
− | + | K.K. Slider's songs, when played live, consist of acoustic guitar paired with vocalizations from K.K., including [[Animalese]] syllables, humming, whistling, and howling. Each song is inspired by a different genre of music. The aircheck versions of the songs differ from the live versions and are fully produced instrumental-only versions. Beginning in {{NL}}, each song has a unique album cover. | |
+ | |||
+ | Every game in the {{SER|nolink}} features K.K. Slider songs, with each new installment usually adding more songs while retaining all songs from the previous games. As of the {{NHVer|2.0|full}} to {{NH}}, there are a total of 110 K.K. Slider songs. Each game also features [[secret song]]s which can only be heard and received if they are specifically requested, along with unnamed, live-performance only songs which can only be heard if the player inputs an invalid request for a song. Each successive game usually adds three new invalid-request songs while promoting the previous game's invalid-request songs to secret songs, and promoting the previous game's secret songs to standard songs. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Appearances== | ||
+ | ===In the first-generation games=== | ||
+ | In every [[First generation|first-generation ''Animal Crossing'' game]], K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances in front of the [[train station]] on Saturday nights. K.K. songs the player has obtained appear in the [[catalog]], though they cannot be ordered. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====In {{DnM|nolink}}, {{DnM+|nolink}}, and {{PG|nolink}}==== | ||
+ | In {{DnM}}, {{DnM+}}, and {{PG}}, there are a total of 58 K.K. Slider songs, including three secret songs—"[[K.K. Song]]", "[[I Love You]]", and "[[Two Days Ago]]"—and three invalid-request songs. In {{DnM|nolink}}, only one song can be placed in a stereo at a time; in all subsequent first-generation games, all 55 airchecks can be stored at once in a stereo. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In {{DnM|nolink}} and {{iQue}} only, K.K. Slider songs can be purchased from [[Redd]] during [[Fireworks Show]]s for 980 [[Bell]]s. In all other first-generation games, Redd instead sells [[handheld item]]s. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====In {{DnMe+|nolink}}==== | ||
+ | {{DnMe+}} introduces 12 standard songs, three invalid-request songs, and a special birthday performance (later titled "[[K.K. Birthday]]"), bringing the total to 74 songs. The three invalid-request songs from the previous first-generation games are promoted to secret songs: "[[My Place]]", "[[Forest Life]]", and "[[To the Edge]]". The three secret songs from the previous entries remain secret songs, a practice that would not be repeated in later games. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The 12 new standard songs can only be performed by K.K. after their respective [[e-Reader card]] is scanned at the [[town tune]] board outside the [[post office]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The 70 songs with aircheck versions now also have their live-performance versions available as items to be used in stereos. These versions have the same names as the standard airchecks and are differentiated by a double eighth-note icon. They can be obtained from [[villager]]s who have high [[friendship]] with the player, or from [[special character]]s after the song's e-Reader card is scanned. This feature remains exclusive to {{DnMe+|nolink}}. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===In {{WW|short|nolink}}=== | ||
+ | In {{WW}}, K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances at [[The Roost]] on Saturday nights. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{WW|short|nolink}} retains 73 of the 74 songs from {{DnMe+}} (excluding "K.K. Birthday"), while promoting the secret songs "[[K.K. Song]]", "[[I Love You]]", and "[[Two Days Ago]]" to standard songs. No new songs are added, making {{WW|short|nolink}} the only game in the series with this distinction. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===In {{CF|short|nolink}}=== | ||
+ | Like in {{WW|short|nolink}}, in {{CF}}, K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances at The Roost on Saturday nights. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{CF|short|nolink}} introduces two standard songs—"[[K.K. House]]" and "[[K.K. Sonata]]"—and three invalid-request songs, bringing the total number of songs to 78. Additionally, the three invalid-request songs from {{DnMe+|nolink}} and {{WW|short|nolink}} are promoted to secret songs: "[[Stale Cupcakes]]", "[[Spring Blossoms]]", and "[[Wandering]]". | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===In {{NL|short|nolink}}=== | ||
+ | In {{NL}}, K.K. Slider song airchecks can be obtained either from K.K. after his performances at [[Club LOL]] on Saturday nights, or, for standard songs only, from [[T.I.Y.]] and [[T&T Emporium]] for 3,200 Bells. K.K. songs once again appear in the catalog and can now be ordered for 3,200 Bells. Each song now has a unique album cover, which can be displayed as [[furniture]] items. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{NL|short|nolink}} introduces 12 standard songs, three invalid-request songs, and "[[K.K. Birthday]]" returns from {{DnMe+}}, bringing the total to 94 songs. The three invalid-request songs from {{CF|short|nolink}} are promoted to secret songs: "[[Hypno K.K.]]", "[[K.K. Stroll]]", and "[[K.K. Island]]". Additionally, "K.K. Birthday" now has an aircheck version. | ||
+ | |||
+ | K.K. Slider performs remixed versions of his songs as DJ KK every night except Saturdays at Club LOL from 8 PM to 6 AM. DJ KK alternates between electronic dance remixes and "House Night" and 8-bit chiptune remixes on "NES Night". | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===In {{NH|short|nolink}}=== | ||
+ | In {{NH}}, K.K. Slider song airchecks can be obtained either from K.K. after his performances outside [[Resident Services]] on Saturday nights, or, for standard songs only, from [[Nook Shopping]] for 3,200 Bells. Like in {{NL|short|nolink}}, K.K. songs appear in the catalog and can now be ordered. Songs can also be gifted by villagers after they invite the player to their house for a visit. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The original release of {{NH}} introduces one standard song, "[[Welcome Horizons]]", and three invalid-request songs, bringing the total to 98 songs. The three invalid-request songs from {{NL|short|nolink}} are promoted to secret songs: "[[Animal City]]", "[[Drivin']]", and "[[Farewell]]". 12 new songs were added in the {{NHVer|2.0|full}}, bringing the total to 110. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nearly all of the album covers from {{NL|short|nolink}} have been redesigned, both noticeably and subtly. In most cases, the indecipherable text that appeared in {{NL|short|nolink}} has been replaced with each song's proper name, using the language most appropriate to its genre (for example, "[[K.K. Jongara]]" uses its Japanese name, "[[Café K.K.]]" uses its French name, and "[[K.K. Steppe]]" uses its Cyrillic name). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====In {{HHP|short|nolink}}==== | ||
+ | In the {{HHP|short}} expansion, DJ KK performs remixes of his songs on the main island of the [[archipelago]] every two weeks. | ||

Latest revision as of 00:06, November 24, 2024
The Animal Crossing series features many songs performed by K.K. Slider. K.K. visits town on Saturday nights to perform live either a random song or a specific request from the player. During the performance, the game's staff credits play, and afterward, K.K. gives the player an aircheck of the song, which can be placed in a stereo furniture item to be played in the player's house.
K.K. Slider's songs, when played live, consist of acoustic guitar paired with vocalizations from K.K., including Animalese syllables, humming, whistling, and howling. Each song is inspired by a different genre of music. The aircheck versions of the songs differ from the live versions and are fully produced instrumental-only versions. Beginning in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, each song has a unique album cover.
Every game in the Animal Crossing series features K.K. Slider songs, with each new installment usually adding more songs while retaining all songs from the previous games. As of the 2.0 Free Update to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, there are a total of 110 K.K. Slider songs. Each game also features secret songs which can only be heard and received if they are specifically requested, along with unnamed, live-performance only songs which can only be heard if the player inputs an invalid request for a song. Each successive game usually adds three new invalid-request songs while promoting the previous game's invalid-request songs to secret songs, and promoting the previous game's secret songs to standard songs.
Appearances[edit]
In the first-generation games[edit]
In every first-generation Animal Crossing game, K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances in front of the train station on Saturday nights. K.K. songs the player has obtained appear in the catalog, though they cannot be ordered.
In Doubutsu no Mori, Doubutsu no Mori+, and Animal Crossing[edit]
In Doubutsu no Mori, Doubutsu no Mori+, and Animal Crossing, there are a total of 58 K.K. Slider songs, including three secret songs—"K.K. Song", "I Love You", and "Two Days Ago"—and three invalid-request songs. In Doubutsu no Mori, only one song can be placed in a stereo at a time; in all subsequent first-generation games, all 55 airchecks can be stored at once in a stereo.
In Doubutsu no Mori and Dòngwù Sēnlín only, K.K. Slider songs can be purchased from Redd during Fireworks Shows for 980 Bells. In all other first-generation games, Redd instead sells handheld items.
In Doubutsu no Mori e+[edit]
Doubutsu no Mori e+ introduces 12 standard songs, three invalid-request songs, and a special birthday performance (later titled "K.K. Birthday"), bringing the total to 74 songs. The three invalid-request songs from the previous first-generation games are promoted to secret songs: "My Place", "Forest Life", and "To the Edge". The three secret songs from the previous entries remain secret songs, a practice that would not be repeated in later games.
The 12 new standard songs can only be performed by K.K. after their respective e-Reader card is scanned at the town tune board outside the post office.
The 70 songs with aircheck versions now also have their live-performance versions available as items to be used in stereos. These versions have the same names as the standard airchecks and are differentiated by a double eighth-note icon. They can be obtained from villagers who have high friendship with the player, or from special characters after the song's e-Reader card is scanned. This feature remains exclusive to Doubutsu no Mori e+.
In Wild World[edit]
In Animal Crossing: Wild World, K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances at The Roost on Saturday nights.
Wild World retains 73 of the 74 songs from Doubutsu no Mori e+ (excluding "K.K. Birthday"), while promoting the secret songs "K.K. Song", "I Love You", and "Two Days Ago" to standard songs. No new songs are added, making Wild World the only game in the series with this distinction.
In City Folk[edit]
Like in Wild World, in Animal Crossing: City Folk, K.K. Slider song airchecks are obtained from K.K. after his performances at The Roost on Saturday nights.
City Folk introduces two standard songs—"K.K. House" and "K.K. Sonata"—and three invalid-request songs, bringing the total number of songs to 78. Additionally, the three invalid-request songs from Doubutsu no Mori e+ and Wild World are promoted to secret songs: "Stale Cupcakes", "Spring Blossoms", and "Wandering".
In New Leaf[edit]
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, K.K. Slider song airchecks can be obtained either from K.K. after his performances at Club LOL on Saturday nights, or, for standard songs only, from T.I.Y. and T&T Emporium for 3,200 Bells. K.K. songs once again appear in the catalog and can now be ordered for 3,200 Bells. Each song now has a unique album cover, which can be displayed as furniture items.
New Leaf introduces 12 standard songs, three invalid-request songs, and "K.K. Birthday" returns from Doubutsu no Mori e+, bringing the total to 94 songs. The three invalid-request songs from City Folk are promoted to secret songs: "Hypno K.K.", "K.K. Stroll", and "K.K. Island". Additionally, "K.K. Birthday" now has an aircheck version.
K.K. Slider performs remixed versions of his songs as DJ KK every night except Saturdays at Club LOL from 8 PM to 6 AM. DJ KK alternates between electronic dance remixes and "House Night" and 8-bit chiptune remixes on "NES Night".
In New Horizons[edit]
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, K.K. Slider song airchecks can be obtained either from K.K. after his performances outside Resident Services on Saturday nights, or, for standard songs only, from Nook Shopping for 3,200 Bells. Like in New Leaf, K.K. songs appear in the catalog and can now be ordered. Songs can also be gifted by villagers after they invite the player to their house for a visit.
The original release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons introduces one standard song, "Welcome Horizons", and three invalid-request songs, bringing the total to 98 songs. The three invalid-request songs from New Leaf are promoted to secret songs: "Animal City", "Drivin'", and "Farewell". 12 new songs were added in the 2.0 Free Update, bringing the total to 110.
Nearly all of the album covers from New Leaf have been redesigned, both noticeably and subtly. In most cases, the indecipherable text that appeared in New Leaf has been replaced with each song's proper name, using the language most appropriate to its genre (for example, "K.K. Jongara" uses its Japanese name, "Café K.K." uses its French name, and "K.K. Steppe" uses its Cyrillic name).
In Happy Home Paradise[edit]
In the Happy Home Paradise expansion, DJ KK performs remixes of his songs on the main island of the archipelago every two weeks.

Trivia[edit]
- Most of K.K. Slider's songs in Doubutsu no Mori were composed by Toru Minegishi, who is known for creating music for the Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Splatoon series. Sound designer Kazumi Totaka arranged the live versions in two weeks. He would write out the arrangements on his train ride to work in order to meet strict deadlines.[1]
- When using a karaoke system in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the screen on the furniture item will turn on and output a set of four images. The image set correlates to the mood of the song that's playing. The request-only songs, which don't otherwise have moods, are given specific image sets.
- "Animal City," "Farewell," "K.K. Birthday," and "Welcome Horizons" use the "laid-back" image set.
- "Drivin'" uses the "I feel good!" image set.
- "K.K. Bashment," "K.K. Break," "K.K. Chorinho," and "K.K. Hop" use the "I feel good!" mood images, while "K.K. Khoomei" and "K.K. Lovers" use the "laid-back" mood images, despite the fact that the mood of these songs do not match the images presented on the Karaoke System.
- Leaked development assets from the production of Doubutsu no Mori indicate that airchecks were originally planned to be MiniDiscs, a rewritable magneto-optical disc format that was popular in Japan during the 1990s and 2000s. The final game uses a generic eighth note icon, a motif that would remain in place throughout the series.
