Ahh yes. Reminds me of my teenage years. Experimenting with Marijuana, pirated MP3s, and the Milkdrop visualization plugin for Winamp. Those were good times... Real good times.
Maaan, I had so many different skins for my Winamp player. Was such a great time to be on the internet. It was open and anonymous and had yet to be fully commercially exploited.
There was a setting (or plugin?) to use a random skin on startup.
You could actually set it to change skin on every song in playlist. Great feature if you were skin hoarder like me.
For anyone wanting to get a nostalgia hit: Winamp Skin Museum
Edit: Spelling
Ah. This is great. It even plays the music
The best part was the commercially "exploited" parts were so woefully done. It was great seeing mega corporations stumbling to figure out how the internet worked, while the little guy has full control over it.
FYI there's a stand alone version of milkdrop but on crack called nest drop
In Foobar2000, Shpeck allows you to run those old Winamp vis plugins - I have Milkdrop 2.2 with all those old classics. They still look great on modern tech!
This! 😵💫
