MusicCurator
MusicCurator adds several new features to enhance your in-game listening experience, including a playlist app, a track blocklist, and a skip button.
Supports the latest version of BombRushRadio - no fork needed!
Features
- Instant shuffle: If you're getting tired of the "Locking Up the Funk" mixtape, this config option chooses a random song to play when loading a save. Also switches your music player app to shuffle mode automatically for maximum convienence.
- Skip tracks: Hit R3 (Semicolon on keyboard) to skip the currently playing song at any time. No more scrolling through the music app in the middle of a combo!
- Track blocklist: Sick of that one song killing your groove? Select it in the music app and press the skip button, and it'll never play again! (...except when you play it manually or in a playlist)
- You'll know it worked when the track's title and artist turn red.
- By default, all looped mixtapes are blocklisted to prevent them from playing automatically.
- New! Strict blocklisting mode that affects cutscenes and story events
- Track queueing: Press L3 (Quote) while hovering over a track in the music app to queue it up. Once the current track ends, the earliest queued track will play next, regardless of shuffle/looping settings.
- A queue number will show up on top of the track to denote where it's placed in the queue.
- Want to keep a queue looping? Make it a playlist!
- Playlists: The Playlists app in your phone allows you to create and edit playlists, as well as manage your blocklist and queue. Keep your favorite tracks on loop, or create playlists for different stages and vibes. Perfect for organizing your custom tracks!
- Single loop: A new looping option within the music app to keep one track constantly playing. Note that skipping a track in single loop mode will simply restart it instead.
- Quick shuffle toggle: Press Select (Left Bracket) while in the music app to quickly toggle looping, shuffling, or looping a single track.
- All mixtapes everywhere: The Hideout mixtape is now avaliable to play in every stage, and the "Locking Up the Funk" mixtape is avaliable in the Hideout.
- New! Unlocked phone everywhere (experimental): Use your phone at any time during the game's story to select new tracks.
- Rebindable controls and plenty of configuration options!
Incompatible Mods
- Shuffleify by Dragsun: This mod patches some of the same code MusicCurator patches, leading to unexpected behavior from both mods. Additionally, most of the features of Shuffleify (instant shuffle, looping single tracks, etc.) are also included in MusicCurator, so having both mods becomes redundant. Highly recommended to choose one over the other.
- TrackRemix by Glomzubuk: Untested due to TrackRemix being deprecated. Highly recommended to use BombRushRadio instead.

Q&A
Where is the save data stored?
Windows: %localappdata%\Bomb Rush Cyberfunk Modding\MusicCurator\saves
There are separate files for each save slot, and each contains that slot's blocklist and playlists. Playlists can't currently be shared between saves, but you can copy-paste and rename these files to copy over your playlists and block
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
