SoulSync

SoulSync is an automation platform that brings streaming-style music discovery to self-hosted music libraries. It monitors artists, generates curated playlists, downloads missing tracks from multiple sources, and keeps your media server library organized and up to date.

Key Features

• Artist watchlists with automatic detection of new releases
• Auto-generated playlists (e.g., Release Radar, Discovery Weekly, seasonal and genre/decade mixes)
• Multi-source downloads via slskd/Soulseek and other supported sources, with quality profiles and fallback rules
• Advanced matching and duplicate prevention against your existing library
• Metadata enrichment including synchronized lyrics (LRC), album art, and improved tags
• Template-based file organization and library management tools (quality scanning, duplicate cleaning, completion tracking)
• Media server synchronization for platforms such as Plex, Jellyfin, and Navidrome

Use Cases

• Replace streaming discovery with automated recommendations for a local music library
• Maintain an always-updated collection by monitoring favorite artists and grabbing new releases automatically
• Clean up and standardize large libraries with better metadata, naming, and duplicate control

Limitations and Considerations

• Requires external services and credentials for some features (for example Spotify API) and a separate slskd setup for Soulseek downloads
• Download sources and availability can vary, and correct file-sharing configuration is important when using Soulseek

SoulSync is best suited for music enthusiasts who want hands-off discovery, acquisition, and organization of a large local library. It combines playlist curation, automation, and library hygiene tools into a single self-hosted workflow.
