Own your music again.

HALCYON is a Mac media player for people who own their library — and refuse to rent it. The free player, My Pleasure, is in the works, and I'm building it in the open. Get on the list.

I've got a hundred-thousand-plus songs — live sets, soundboards, lossless rips, formats half my apps won't even open. Every streaming service wants me to rent music I already own, and still can't play half my library. So I'm building the player I always wanted.

What already works (in testing now): it plays everything — including the SHN and APE files live-music collectors live on. Move a drive or rename a folder and your library never breaks. It loads your real plugins with their own interfaces, right inside the player. It replaces QuickTime. No cloud, no account, no subscription.

What I'm building next: the stuff that makes live-music people cry happy tears — including pairing a rough concert video with your pristine soundboard of the same night, locked in sync. Built in the open. You'll see it as it ships.

The promise: My Pleasure is free and ad-free — a gift, hence the name. Buy-once tiers come later for the power tools; never a subscription.
