Looking for audio player with basic features

I'd like to find an audio player app which works like my tiny Sandisk player did:

1) Allows me to go into files, click a tune, plays that tune, then randomly plays one of my other 1500 tunes, and continues with that until I stop it. So many just play that 1st tune, then stop. Also, a lot of them just REPLAY that 1st tune over & over, even if you hit next >|

2) Shuts off the player/STOPS PLAYING when I hit "close all". Doesn't just close the main APP page & KEEP PLAYING, as many do.

3) Will automatically remember the point I stopped playing ANY audio file FOREVER and begin at that point the next time I open that file, even if it's 2 years later. Audio books are a real PITA without this. I've yet to find a single app which can do this.

4) I don't need or want things like "Shake to skip". Ran into that on a player before I knew this was a "feature". Oddly, it only did it on SOME files.

This all seems pretty basic/obvious and again, my smaller-than-a-matchbox Sandisk has been able to do this for years. Right up until I lost it & began the frustrating task of trying to find an app which actually works. Any suggestions? Other than "Buy another Sandisk" ;-)
 
What phone you got? I can't speak for others but My Music on every Samsung phone I've ever had has let me scroll to all tracks and play them all in random. It's always remembered where it was left off even after I've rebooted my phone. I'm pretty sure most decent music apps from the play store should do that as well. I don't mean to sound patronising but are you sure you haven't got the repeat one/repeat all/repeat none buttons pressed wrong?

Thanks for the response. I do have a Samsung, you could be right about the settings, I'll take another look at that one.
