Jan 2, 2016 8:46 AM in response to bholajby swandy,What you can do is turn OFF iCloud Music Library in iTunes on your Mac. That will not effect ICML on your iPhone. Unfortunately you will first have to delete all the music from your iCloud Music Library that was synced from your Mac. (Being careful NOT to allow iTunes/Apple Music from deleting the actual music files from the Mac - a backup first is a good idea.)
If you are not sure what songs were matched, you can create a Smart Playlist in iTunes that only includes music actually ON the computer. Then from that playlist delete everything from iCloud Music Library - again being careful not to delete the actual files. Then turn OFF ICML in iTunes on the Mac and don't turn it back on - which result in all your music being put back into ICML.
Only issue you will have is that you won't be able to add any music to your library from your Mac - only from your iPhone. You will still be able to listen to AM from the Mac, just not add any albums, tracks or playlists.
