recently moved to linux (ubuntu)
Back in windows i was running FooBar2000, it has an awesome plugin that would automatically sort my music library in a specified file tree such as
/ [Artist] / [Date] - [Album] / [Track No.] - [Track]
and I was wondering whether there was a way to easily achieve this on linux?

out of the frying pan into the fire

seemed the easiest to get started on and learn how linux works

You're right, it's a good way to start
My foobar does it automatically on Linux already?

At the very least, have a look at peppermint and lubutu.
I presonally like peppermint. Then just slap a tiling window manager on and you have something reasonably usable without amazon being involved.

didn't know there was a version of foobar for linux? doesn't seem to be one on the main site anyway

i know there were probably much better distros of ubuntu, i grabbed Kubuntu in the end, stripped it of KDE and ran openbox, its exam season for me currently so didn't want to deal with the haste of researching things. Will look into something better after though

Lots of good music programs on ubuntu. Not sure what you're looking for exactly, but if you have a huge music library I would recommend mpd + ncmpcpp.
It has support for ID3 tags, and it manages huge collections extremely efficiently.
Maybe check out the program "picard" if you want to make mass changes to your ID3 tags.
