Musike

Musike is a free and open-source music player that streams songs, albums and music videos from YouTube Music's catalog without ads, an account or a subscription. It runs on your own device: a built-in server fetches the streams with yt-dlp and passes them to a modern player interface, while playlists, favorites and history are kept in a local library file that can be backed up and moved to another Musike install.

You can search songs, videos and albums, paste a YouTube link, browse YouTube Music genres, open artist and album pages, or use "Search a list" to find several songs at once. Playback includes a queue with shuffle and repeat, autoplay radio with similar songs, and instant seeking. For songs, Musike automatically finds the artist's official music video, so you can switch between audio and video at any time, with a cinema mode, a floating mini player and optional HD 720p.

It is available as a desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux, as standalone Android, Android TV and iPhone apps (audio only), as an installable web app, and as a Docker image for self-hosting. It also offers dark and light themes, custom accent colors, configurable panels and in-app yt-dlp updates.
