My goal was to achieve a result that can adapt to how much information is present, from clean to information overload.
Having the year behind the album is neat, so is only showing the albumartist when it’s not identical to the artist.
Composers are only displayed when present.
And when there’s a boatload of information to display, up to 2 lines are used (I dislike having moving/scrolling text as I find it distracting).
Admittedly this is pretty bloated and overwhelming but I’ve colorcoded 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.
I’ve also moved the cast icon and the lyrics icon from the cover to the bottom bar because I find them easier to reach there and also dislike disturbing the cover art. Now everything I usually use is within the reach of my thumbs.
Great update, @Tolriq! I love it.
