Hi everyone, I’m running a Proxmox server with a Docker LXC container and want to set up a music server. I’ve heard about many services, but I’m not sure which one fits my needs best. My goals:
A program that lets me play music with many client apps, ideally with offline playback for some tracks.
A tool that helps me discover and download music, similar to how I use Deluge, Prowlarr, and SABnzbd for my movie server.
A service that recommends music based on my taste and playlists, like Spotify does. This is especially important for me because I’m not very creative with my playlists—they tend to be short and boring.
I want to share the server with my girlfriend, who uses Apple devices, so the experience should be as smooth as Spotify for her.
What self-hosted music servers do you use in your homelabs? Are there any tools that can analyze my existing playlists and suggest similar music? Do you have any tutorials, blog posts, or Docker Compose files for easy setup?
I’m really excited to hear what you’re using and what you recommend!
I too want the features you list, not sure how doable the recommendations would be on a local server for songs that are not on there already?
Well it must be a service that lists the downloaded or songs in a playlist and searches the web or a ecxsiting database for recommondations and those must be downloaded through the downloadpipeline of the service.
