iOS (Apple Music app via macOS or Windows iTunes):

1. Add folder with Endless files to Apple Music library.
2. Ensure “Sync Library” is on.
3. Plug iPhone, sync music, or wait for iCloud Music Library to match (it won’t match to streaming because Endless isn’t there — it will upload).
4. Download to device.

Option A: Rip the Apple Music Video (Low Quality, but Yours)

If you have an Apple Music subscription, you can use third-party audio capture software (like Audio Hijack on Mac or Audacity on PC) to record the audio from the Endless video as it plays. Then, manually split the hour-long recording into tracks using a tool like Audacity or MP3DirectCut. This is time-consuming, and the audio will be 256 kbps AAC at best.

8. Why Endless Matters (The Long View)

Endless is not just contract-fulfilling filler. It’s a cohesive, melancholic, experimental suite that foreshadowed the minimalist, loop-based, ambient R&B of late 2010s. Tracks like “Wither” and “Slide on Me” contain some of Frank’s most tender melodies. The visual component — building stairs to nowhere — is a metaphor for creative labor under obligation. Audio-only, Endless stands as a challenging but rewarding sibling to Blonde.

For fans, keeping local files of Endless is an act of preservation. Streaming services fail when art is released as a temporary video or limited-edition download. Local files return control to the listener.
