An archive terminal for listening: Swiss typography, a monochrome palette with one accent colour, and a sci-fi layer.
Your albums stand as rendered specimen cases on shelves, a Möbius signal ring pulses with the music, and synced lyrics
are fetched online when your files have none.

## Features

- **Archive:** every album, or every track, as a rendered case on shelves, or a cover grid; inspect, play, rate and keep favourites.
- **Artist files:** who made the album, from MusicBrainz, Wikipedia and ListenBrainz: picture, biography, genres and related
  artists, on the album file or in a file of its own with a map of related artists.
- **Playlists:** a playlist manager, a track rail, the native playlist in two presets and a profile card with the queue.
- **Lyrics:** synced lyrics from your files, LRCLIB or NetEase Cloud Music, with an optional translation and romanization.
- **Signal:** a rendered ∞ ring, a spectrum and the whole-track waveform, or a classic player screen.
- **Style:** eleven case skins and eight colour schemes in light and dark, your own case and scheme, a wallpaper,
  title tags, three fonts.
- English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French and German. The theme updates itself.
