I like Nicotine for Soulseek, but it's been some time since I got on there, like pre-pandemmy

I subscribe to Deezer but use Deemix to download the FLAC files without DRM for my personal library. If the music you want is on Deezer, then you can download it.
I use Chosic to find music and then download with SquidWTF
Thanks I was looking for something like this for a long time
A hundred times soulseek, all the music nerds are there!
Nicotine+ for a better interface of Soulseek
I'm more of a slskd kind of guy, even if the webapp is pretty terrible
doubledouble dot top
cobalt dot tools
lucida dot to
If you haven't already done it, Pat (the Bunny) put all his stuff on archive and he's far from the only one.
Slskd
Yes, or nicotine +
Or Seeker (f-droid) on Android
I couldn't find that one in search.
Oh, sorry. I forgot you'll have to add the IzzyOnDroid repo first
Edit: assuming you're fine with this
DISCLAIMER: As stated above, all .apk files are directly taken from the repositories of their resp. developers. They are provided under FOSS licenses, without any warranty, though we've taken some additional measures to provide our repository with additional transparency and safety checks (see the Security section below).
You can get Seeker directly from its github if that's all you want.
Edit2: there's an app for automating updates for apps installed directly but I can't remember the name.
Edit3: Seeker is also on the play store. 🤷♂️
Blessings to you, friend!
The app for updating is obtainium. Highly recommend it.
That's it! Thank you.
I just download mp3 files from youtube using yt-dlp (laptop) or newpipe (android)
When you are lazy, and your tastes are niche - you just stop listening to music.
Or listen to OK Computer for the billionth time because it's perfect.
Yes, this too! Which I do, do. I miss new music, but I don't miss the bullshit.
I still use soulseek. Works great. No I haven’t tried anything else for 15 years.
Try RuTracker.
Soul seek, although a lot of folk punk bands have their shit for free on bandcamp, all of Pat The Bunny’s stuff at least I’m sure
Qobuz and OrpheusDL. I used to use Deezer and deemix but it’s hardly possible to find working accounts anymore
I always go back to just torrents.
Public torrents suck for music these days. Little available and a lot that is there is FLAC only, no mp3-320
Then let's start creating more again. And seed.
Rutracker,bandcamp, yt-dlp with extract to mp3 :)
eu dot qobuz dot squid dot wtf
Returns 502 for me :/
Weird, try same with na dot instead of eu dot
Wait, FOSS alternatives that hook? Are they in Fdroid?
RiMusic is one I know of
Idk about curated playlists but I use soulseek to share files with my friends.
I like the same genres, I can recommend you some albums I've been liking if you want
Bloodywood
But that's none of those genres...
I would like their stuff so much more if the nu-metal parts went away.
I am unsure what makes something "Swing", but I absolutely adore The Roar of '74 by Buddy Rich. I discovered it via my dumb rule of "See vinyl record with car on it, buy vinyl record with car on it"
I don't care much for most Metal. either.
A nice torrent is "Rolling Stones top 500 Albums of All Time".
Not very eclectic but there's a lot of gold there.
