Online slots come in all shapes and sizes with something to appeal to every audience. The themes are as diverse as it is possible to be. Some are fairly basic and make sense — Las Vegas or gambling themed slots, for example, make total sense.

​Other themes feature popular characters, such as fairies or adventurers, or exotic destinations like the jungle or the desert. There are even special themed slots that pop up around the major holidays, like Halloween, Christmas and Easter.
 
Entertainment themed slots are also very popular. Movies and television shows often have their own slot machine games. As do many of the most famous bands and musicians. These music themed slots are among the most popular.
 
What is it about music-themed slots that make people want to play them? This article suggests what we think are the two main reasons why and then takes a quick look at some of the best music-themed slots at online casinos.
 
If you would like to see just how many music-themed slot machine games there are, take a look at some of the online casinos listed at SlotSource UK. This guide to the best online casinos in the UK will show you just how popular these games are.
 
It’s all about the music
The best thing about music-themed slots is that they feature the music of the artist that they are inspired by - most of these games will include at least four or five hit songs from the artist. Sometimes they will even include clips from their music videos.
 
Science has proven that hearing music that we love makes us happy. According to recent research, dopamine, a chemical in our brains that is linked with feeling happy and being in a good mood, is released when we hear songs that we like.
 
Other studies have shown that gambling can also release dopamine, which is part of the reason that we keep coming back to our favourite games. Combining gambling with music gives us a double dopamine hit that is a guaranteed mood-lifter. This explains a lot about why music themed slots are so popular.
 
Familiarity
Another reason that music (and other entertainment themes) are so popular is that we recognise them and are comfortable with them. Gambling can be risky and is a little scary sometimes, so having images and sounds that we are familiar with helps to alleviate this.
 
Plus, when you enjoy something why not have some more of it? If you love a band or a singer, why wouldn’t you seek out other forms of entertainment related to them? Adults might no longer want to cover their bedrooms in boyband posters, but that doesn’t mean they’ve outgrown loving a band or singer.
 
Playing slots themed around a favourite singer or band gives players a chance to engage with the music they love in a more active way instead of just listening to it. It is a fun extra way to enjoy the music and show some love for Elvis or Ozzy Osbourne or whoever it might be.
 
We might not know for certain why music themed slots are so popular with players, but we do know that these games below are some of the best of the best. So, turn up the volume and get ready to rock!
 
AC/DC
One of the biggest rock bands of the 1970s and 80s, AC/DC are still rock icons. They have inspired multiple slot machine games. Some of these take their names from their biggest hit singles, including Thunderstruck and Highway to Hell even if they have unrelated themes.
 
Other games manage to capture the energy of the band’s music. Hells Bells is a classic style slot machine game that lives up to the name and does AC/DC proud.
 
Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton is a country music icon. She’s also a fashion icon and a humanitarian, but right now it’s all about the music. The voice behind classics like “Jolene” and “9-to-5” is also the face of a slot machine game that exhibits all of her trademark glitz and glam.
 
Karaoke Party
Karaoke Party isn’t built around a single band. Instead, it’s inspired by one of the most fun ways to enjoy music. Most of us might be too timid to sing alone in public but with the words on a screen and the music backing us up, anyone can belt the hits out like a star.
 
This game captures some of that fun. The reels feature different karaoke party characters, including a couple singing a romantic duet, a shy crooner and a group totally rocking it. It is a silly game but it reminds you how great it is to sing along and puts a smile on your face.
 
The Phantom of the Opera
It’s not all pop and rock and roll. When we say there’s something for everyone, we mean it. The Phantom of the Opera slot machine is proof of that. The game appeals to all the musical theatre fans out there who also love a bit of gambling.
 
The game takes images from the hit film adaptation of the musical. It also includes classic images like roses, the mask and sheets of music. Besides the songs from the musical, it also features some very dramatic organ notes to really set the scene!
 
Slot machines are a fun and easy form of gambling. With thousands of different games, it can be easy to get a bit lost in the titles. Music themed slots are a great place to start if you’re new to online casinos because the music and imagery will be familiar and make it a more enjoyable experience.
