I really think you're being a bit too unfair to yourself and to your work, so I suggest you remove that line. Most great programs start off simply and grow.
The screen-cap image implies it's a ms-windows program, but readme.md does not list any system or build requirements (particularly OS and toolchain).
If you have a website for the project (implied by the "Website" code directory), you should link to it from github.
All in all, it looks great. Thanks for ShowHN'ing it.

I remember reading a post about hiring 'rock star' programmers where it said they are usually pretty humble and don't think their accomplishments are especially great, ie. they don't realize how good they are. Christoffer seems like one of those guys. Great job!

Should have gone with the neutral screencap - OS X...

or.. you know.. a few screenshots on different platforms.

I can't remember someone doing that. Usually it's just screencaps from OS X.
It's fairly common for x-platform; otherwise it just shows screenshots from the developer's main machine, which tends to be a mac these days.
[edit] And it's clear from the about section of the home-page that the developer uses windows, since he credits other's for the Mac & Linux support.

I love UI that don't skin themselves. I can't wait until that particular bug is fixed though :).

(every label of the interface has the `text` text instead of the expected word (`play`, `file`, etc.)

What is interesting is one of his other projects: dance analyzer, a plugin for Stoffi
https://github.com/simplare/dance_analyzer
It uses Kinect for Windows to quantify dance movements

Err wow. I think you just killed off my use of VLC media player.
This fixes two major annoyances I've had with VLC in that it never handled displaying the Genre in the playlist and there was some minor problems in the meta files in my MP3s that meant I could never have all my files displayed as it crashed when loading in the files.
It found all my MP3s both without me having to tell it where they were and loaded them in quickly.
Awesome work!

Does it have support for WASAPI output on Windows? The output via DirectSound is unacceptable for some with the obsession on bit-perfect output (or Audiophiles, I suppose).

At a glance this looks like a good project to learn from, specifically about how to structure non-trivial programs. I write lots of spaghetti code and struggle to keep things separate. This code looks clean and well documented.

This project doesn't show much signs of life, how is it news?

I don't know if this is possible, but if a music player could integrate Amazon Music, Spotify, internet radio, and local music, I'd be in love.
