musikcube is a cross-platform, terminal-based music player, audio engine, metadata indexer, and streaming server written in C++. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Raspberry Pi, and can be remote-controlled and streamed from via the musikdroid Android app.

Use cases

  • play music from the terminal
  • run a self-hosted streaming audio server
  • index and manage a music library with metadata
  • turn a raspberry pi into a home stereo player
  • remote control a music server from android
  • transcode audio on the fly for streaming clients

When to choose

  • you want a fast keyboard-driven music player in the terminal
  • you need a lightweight headless audio server for a Pi or home stereo
  • you want cross-platform playback with ALSA, PulseAudio, CoreAudio, WASAPI, or DirectSound backends

When to avoid

  • you need a graphical album-art-rich music player
  • you want a web-based UI rather than a curses terminal interface
