A lightweight, cloud-free, playlist-based music player. Now in beta.
Inspired by the first digital music players back in the 90s, retroJam is a theme-friendly playlist-based music player for your Mac.

No streaming services. No hidden library with duplicates of your music files. Create playlists that remember where you already keep your music, choose a theme, and play your music. Feeling creative? Design and add your own themes.

I just wanted an option to play music from the library of songs I’ve purchased and maintained over the years. So I made one.

What it isn’t
retroJam isn’t compatible with Apple Music, Spotify or protected music file formats. If you’re looking for a stylish Apple Music player, check out Mario Guzman’s beautiful Music Widget. Similarly, retroJam does not currently support internet radio. Check out Broadcasts. For syncing your library across devices, Doppler is very polished.

Please send beta feedback to hello@MOTORCYCL3.com. While this software (obviously) opens music files for playback, it does not alter them in any way. It stores playlist configuration files and themes in your Documents directory, and that's it.
