cursee171596yQuestion unclear.
Are you uploading the media file by yourself and looking for player?
Or are you looking to embed media files/urls from popular hosts (SoundCloud, YouTube, Vimeo, etc)? -
Wombat105826y@cursee I am looking for the best way to have a player for files wich are on the server. No upload.

@Wombat and what do you want achieve? does it need to be pretty or is it just one file or do you want to create the new spotify?
for inspiration; http://play.gds.fm/ has a beautiful player -
@Wombat if he's musician then i would advise using bandcamp.
That way the musician can earn some money and market his music better. As there are some record labels scouting on bandcamp. For your website there is a bandcamp api which you can use to create a custon player expirience.

cursee171596y@Wombat in that case I would follow @heyheni advice in your shoes.
Edit : ok my comment submitted few seconds late. If the client is old, how about WordPress 😁 I'm serious. Not joking. -
Wombat105826y@cursee I already built a custom sexy website. I just want to embed three songs he's playing.
-
cursee171596y@Wombat check out audiojs 😁
Or if it's only 3 songs, why don't you just wanna use default html5 audio tag? -
mundo0349796yIf it is just a demo with no requirements host the audio file and use html5
But audiojs will make it look better I guess
