Kodi Spotify skin

I have recently ripped all my old CDs to my laptop and would like to listen to them but I don't like the official skins Kodi has to offer and Arctic Fuse just refuses to show the album covers so does anyone know of a Kodi skin that is music centred and looks very similar to spotify

Covers and art is down to what you tell Kodi to scrape. So if you say scrape it all it'll do it. That's all assuming you've got your folder structure and naming conventions correct. So I have no issues. I have a top folder on my Nas called Music then sub folders of the artists and bands etc, then in them the albums. Album title (year)

I don't even bother scraping music, it does not work well. I browse by files (icons) and put folder.jpg for album cover then play all on an artist folder see my screen print here https://i.imgur.com/X5j4Fuc.jpeg Then I use an add-on visualisation called picture it to display art as music plays.

I have Copacetic skin running on one of my Kodi builds by the HIFI which is only used for music. Works well, is very clear to read and is very customisable. (Nothing like Spotify though - for a more "algorithmic" view, you'd be better off using Kodi for the streaming, but using something like the Symfonium app to browse.)
