Okay, is there a good music player/library manager for linux?

Back on Windows I used MusicBee and later on Foobar.

>inb4 boku no music player

mpd + ncmpcpp

Using clementine at the moment, it seems to be the only one without an abysmally designed or needlessly minimalistic interface
>>

Go back to windows
>>
>>51880962
get a macbook and use iTunes senpai

mpd + ncmpcpp

There is no other correct awnser.
However if your totally Phisically and mentally retarded you can use amarok.

Literally nothing.

There's a few old as fuck abandoned projects like xmms or audacious you can use. The rest are ironic hipster shit like ncmpcpp or mocp.

Welcome to Linux, enjoy your stay.

This.

>>51881775
Are you serious?
>>
>>51880962
I use cmus and a dropdown terminal.
For managing the music I use the filesystem and kid for tagging
>>
I use gmusicbrowser and it's pretty nice once you customize it to your preferences. Horrible OOTB though.
>>
>>51881765
mocp is pretty neat too

>Controlling your music library through a terminal

I don't know Anon, are you serious?

I know its fun to pretend to be a hacker with text UIs but they're godawful for multimedia purposes. That is just not what they're there for
>>
mpd + cantata is it for me. The latest git fixes many issues and even supports faggotOSRetina.
Never use a musicplayer without ratings and dynamic playlists.
>>
>>51881893
Then still use MPD and use 1 of the large amount of GUI MPD frontends.

a good tui will always be better than a good gui

I'd recommend "Quod Libet".

it has good music management, it's not too heavy, nice plugin support (can be controlled via mpc & co.), you can view your music different interfaces (playlist, album, filesystem, etc.) and nice nice internet radio support and discovery.

The only problem I see is (IMO) that it's written in python and gtk3+, so it's slightly slugish on startup, but on the other hand, it took me a white to realize, so it's not even that bad.

Would recommend checking it out.

I use folders to organize it and mplayer for playback
>>
>>51882008

holy shit, that actually looks like a decent one
thanks, based anon

>>51882106
Deadbeef is quite good too. Used it for years with no problems.
>>
beets for tagging/library management and mpd for playback. I use a client that I wrote myself. ncmpcpp is good too.

I also use this on windows.
>>
Groove music.

It's fast, minimalist, and integrated to the shell.

Oh wait, you're running lolcocks.
