UPDATED: Side Splitter v3.0

Side Splitter will allow you to configure a selection of tracks (presumably the tracks of a single particular album, although any tracks will do) like the sides of an analog LP. The script will then have the Music app play each "side" one at a time, with a few seconds of space between each track and slightly more space between sides (to emulate the time it would take to flip the record over).

The playback experience is, surprisingly, kinda remarkable, if I do say so myself. (Meanwhile, apparently there's some new Apple Music feature that forces tracks to seg even closer.)

You can get the track order for an album if you Search Discogs or Search Wikipedia.

Latest version:

  • Accommodations for macOS 26 Tahoe
  • Redesigned UI and concept
