C64 jukebox software?

[Harry Potter]

Hi! I'm looking for some music software for the C64 that can play selected songs. Any suggestions?

MP3s would be pretty impressive without extra hardware.

For SID tunes, try SIDplay64:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sidplay64/

It worked! :D Load speed is a little slow, though, because I don't have a fast-loader. :(

Impressive, but not actually MP3.

you prefer MIDI?? they're small... i even have some very small and primitive
tunes that use the system speaker by generating frequencies of certain
durations for each note... one freq at a time... no cords or similar multiple
tones... we use(d) them on our old-school DOS BBSes which are still in
operation over telnet these days... some still offer dialup but they are few
and far between...

You mean SIDs? You might be able to play them in a tracker on the C64,
like Chris Hülsbeck's Soundmonitor.

Was doing a few SIDs back in the day after the code for typing it down
was released in the German 64'ER magazine. But luckily these are all lost
so no one can torture himself with what I did back then. :-)

Or want to play them on a PC? Then you might already have installed VLC
(Video LAN Media Player), which can also play SIDs. And either find a way
to transfer SIDs from you C64 to the PC or search for "download" "sids"
"commodore" or similar. You may find the HVSID collection and also web
page allowing selected SID classics for download.

I'm already playing them on a PC. I just wanted to play music in the background from the C64 while doing some work on two PCs in an environment that prevents multi-tasking.

Impressive as always, but not MP3's.

I see you already got answers. I just would like to add that there are
also SID players on smartphones. I personally use Modizer app, which
is a general scene music player, it can play SIDs and it have access
right from the app to HVSC database with tens of thousands of SID
tracks. I know it exists for iOS, not sure about Android, but I would
assume so.
