is there a media server that allows you to sort by folder path/file name? (alien.top)

hi, i have tried jellyfin and navidrome, they are both amazing but it is lacking the basic feature of exploring file directory/path. my music library is mostly mixtapes and single tracks, and i have it sorted by the folders/file names for easy access. most of my library is not albums nor do they have the proper id3 tag, jellyfin and navidrome only lets me search my files by artists, album, or song. is there an alternative that let's you browse the folder hierarchy? for more context, poweramp is the only app i ever purchased because of it's features and it allows you to play music by searching through the folder hierarchy instead of only playlists and id3 tags. sadly, it does not support hosted media servers
