I use localsound as my go-to soundplayer. It is perfect for my use-case. It is not bloated and does exactly what it should: Play my local sound. I also enjoy the internet radio feature. The included themes are also beautiful! 5 stars!

What is LocalSound?

LocalSound is a desktop music player for the collection you actually own, on Linux and Windows. It was built after a move from MusicBee to Linux, by someone who wanted the same kind of library management there. The public release is new; the app has run its developer's own collection every day since early 2024, on both systems.

Ratings, tags and artist info are written into your music files, not a hidden database. Organizing rules file your tracks into artist and album folders once their tags are complete, and a folder watcher picks up new music by itself. Missing tags and covers are looked up online.
