Mp3 Downloads

so every time I download an mp3 download through safari, it automatically gets added to my music, is there anyway I can have it stay as just a download and not go to my music?

Safari > Preferences > General tab > Untick Open "safe" files after downloading.

I don't want to automatically add or play mp3 files to Apple Music when downloading I'm on 12.0.1, when I download mp3 files from safari, it automatically adds and plays(!) mp3 files I download in Music/Apple Music. This occurs even when I download directly into a podcast app folder on iCloud. It play automatically when the download finishes, without any input from me (aside from downloading the file). How do I get it the stop? I don't see anything in Music or Safari settings to stop this.
