I think a mixture of Jellyfin and Lidarr are what you're looking for, but I haven't tried out Lidarr personally. If it's as good as Sonarr then it probably works well.
Jellyfin is a media server, so can be access from any device. Most use it for TV and films but its music player and library work well also.
-Arr services are used to crawl usenet/bittorrent trackers for different kinds of media.
I'd imagine the process for this would be you add an album you want to Lidarr, which will then look around for the audio files, use a downloader you point to in order to download it, and then move it into your Jellyfin library.
Edit: I've pointed at Docker repos because I'm a container whore but I believe they all have bare-metal builds also.
I checked out Lidarr and it only supports usenet and bittorrent. Unfortunately it won’t work for “local” music I think.
What do you mean "local"? Lidarr is not a player. It looks at your already existing music files and pulls any missing albums from the list of artist you already have.
Wrong word. I meant I’m from a 3rd world country and the music from my country can’t be found on public indexers. Not a native speaker 🤷♂️
Haha, be careful with the word 'local' when talking about IT stuff. I took it as 'local machine'.
In terms of your actual tastes, I wouldn't know where to recommend for that. I don't do much music piracy myself outside of SittingOnClouds for game soundtracks that I then put on Jellyfin and YouTube Music (Nintendo put your fucking soundtracks on music services I swear to God).
Unfortunately, I think "local" is the best word usually, just not when also talking about computers. I've tried to think of an alternative and haven't come up with one. I think you need a phrase like "music from local artists" or something.
