About

Stochastic Music Tyrant

Features

Your library has outgrown your listening. Hundreds of songs you added once and never heard again sit buried while the same forty play on repeat. Stochastic Music Tyrant is a true shuffle for the library you already own. Every song plays exactly once before any song repeats, so the ones you forgot resurface instead of the same rotation. A running counter proves it, and your place holds across sessions. THE ENGINE A full Fisher-Yates shuffle with real randomness. Every subject performs once per reign, spread evenly across your whole Apple Music library. No weighting by play counts, skips, or moods. You get what you get. THE GALLOWS Hold to banish a song you are done with. It leaves the shuffle for good, takes a dislike in Apple Music, and lands on The Block, a real playlist where the condemned wait. The sentence stands across reigns until you show mercy. A PARDON Tap the heart to spare a song you love: loved in Apple Music and gathered into The Pardoned. THE REGISTER The Block never forgets. Every row stands under AWAITING THE AXE, STRUCK FROM THE LIBRARY, or SPARED, each with its date. Strike a song by hand in Apple Music and the court notices on its own. THE WARRANT No app on iPhone may delete a song from your library. So the court issues warrants. SEND THE WARRANT posts every standing sentence, and The Headsman, a free companion for your Mac, serves it in one sitting. The deletions are real and sync everywhere. The sentence travels with you. The axe waits at home. NUMBERED REIGNS One full pass through your library is a reign. When every song has played, it ends with ceremony and the next begins with a fresh shuffle. The Dossier keeps your record: days in power, songs pardoned, songs banished, and how ruthless your rule has run. PROCLAIM Turn any reign or the whole Block into a decree card made to share. Real names stay sealed unless you choose to confess them. ONE COURT, TWO THRONES The court travels. The same reign holds session on your iPhone and in your desktop browser, and one seat opens both. Buy once. No subscription to the Tyrant. Requires an Apple Music subscription. Bring order to the library you already own. Starve your algorithm.
