Sockseek (formerly sldl/slsk-batchdl) is a command-line downloader for the Soulseek peer-to-peer network that searches, ranks, and batch-downloads music from search strings, Spotify/YouTube playlists, CSV files, Bandcamp pages, or MusicBrainz releases. It can run as a one-shot CLI tool or a persistent daemon, with automatic or interactive download modes.
Use cases
- batch download music from soulseek
- download a spotify playlist via soulseek
- download albums from youtube playlists
- search soulseek and download best matching files automatically
- download all albums by an artist interactively
- scriptable music downloading from csv track lists
- prefer flac downloads with mp3 fallback
When to choose
- you want to bulk-download music from the Soulseek network from playlists or track lists
- you need a scriptable, configurable CLI downloader rather than a GUI client
- you want automatic ranking and filtering of candidate files by format and preferences
When to avoid
- you need a full Soulseek client with file sharing - Sockseek does not share your music folders yet
- you prefer a graphical interface like Nicotine+ or slskd
- you want to download from networks other than Soulseek
