It seems the developer has no plans to support MPEG-4 audio files.

It's a Common Lisp program for end users and I can literally use it in 3 clicks, thanks to its AppImage (for Linux x86-64). Good (and rare) stuff!

It's also impressive to see that the audio decoding is mostly done in CL, without bindings.

cmus is also very cool, it’s a TUI. Paging through tracks in cmus blows iTunes out of the water.

If you read the fine print, the next significant release will be written in Common Lisp but the current releases are written in Crystal.
