MOC (Music On Console) is a terminal-based music player using the ncurses toolkit. It is designed to be simple and robust enough to run smoothly without significantly affecting other I/O operations.
MOC performs sleekly despite system or I/O load because, according to the dev team, it uses the output buffer in a separate thread. It provides gapelss playback because the next file to be played is reached while the current file is playing.
review
I wanted to like CMus but ended up loving MOC. The biggest difference is that CMus playlist save and edit is crappy while MOC works well with common playlist types and it is easy to load and save playlists.
installation
sudo apt install moc
To start Moc type
mocp
usage
The command to launch moc is 'mocp' as not to interfere with another software that uses just moc as its binary.
