Apple Music overrides Synch Only Ticked Songs and Skip When Shuffling

Since getting Apple Music, all my songs are now on my phone. Every single one. I very carefully curate songs in iTunes that I want on my phone and Apple Music completely ignores that. It shuffles every song, including musical soundtracks which I deliberately set to skip when shuffling because nobody wants one random Hamilton song just popping up.


How do I get my Apple Music to do what I want it to do, which is only play synched songs and ignore certain tracks when shuffling?

Turn off cloud music library and you can then sync music using your Mac. Or, use your playlists to shuffle music that you curate.
