My goal was to achieve a result that can adapt to how much information is present, from clean to information overload.
Features:
- The track number and delimiter are displayed in front of the clean title when present
- The year is displayed behind the album title in braces when present
- The album artist is displayed if it differs from the artist
- The composer is displayed when present, denoted by a
byin front of the value - Fields that exceed 1 line are displayed on up to 2 lines (title, artist, album, albumartist)
- All often used buttons are in thumb reach at the bottom at fixed positions
There are 2 versions of my Style. 1 with the unicode T-Rex as the delimiter between track number and title and one with the default delimiter. I also included a legacy version where I still had the font sizes a bit bigger that I presented here.

Admittedly this can become pretty bloated and overwhelming in extreme cases but I’ve color-coded it. Information at the track level is white (title, artist, composer) and album information is grey (album, year, albumartist), alternating between track and album information.
Update to account for changes to the compact player made in v13.0.0:
- slightly increased height of the wave bar
- reconfigured the compact player to fit my style
- added the T-Rex delimiter to the compact player
