It is no secret to anyone that the team of Elementary he's doing his homework, and he's doing it well I should add.
Now they just released their fork of Beatbox, Noise, a simple but powerful music player, with what we need to listen to music and have our collection organized but without having that overwhelming amount of options that we honestly do not use, or few use.
The truth is there are not too many "spectacular" details about this player since like everything the boys do ElementaryWell, it is simple and practical, as everything should be, here I leave you anyway a small list and some images:
- Elementary type interface (obvious).
- Preview albums and their cover.
- Side panel with musical recommendations.
- Side panel with song information.
- Among others.
To install it in Ubuntu you just have to apply the following steps:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nemequ/sqlheavy
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elementary-os/daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install noise
In the end, it should not be long before ElementaryOS Luna is released, we must remember that they try to carry out a job as complete and polished as possible and perhaps that is what delays them to show their new version, although it does not matter, well worth the wait for a good distro.

Very good news for us Linuxeros, as soon as I have the opportunity I will try it. 🙂
What a lousy name they chose.
I like it hahaha xD
Sarcasm is one of our many qualities hehe
When they chose the name they were thinking of regayton, that's why the name came to them Noise to the head.
I'm going to download it right now and tell you how it is.
Well I have put 24 gigabytes of music in the library and it has hit me 5 or 6 times in a row when I put it in the covers mode (iTunes roll) but otherwise it goes well. I guess they still have to polish it up a bit.
Very nice, it gets the metadata well… for now I like it.
But man, 24gb of music is no wonder xD
I have 16,1 Gb of music but I think I listen to 20 songs of all the ones I have: p
Clementine is a much more mature breeder. In addition, each one does what he wants with his time. If they want to develop a player to do so, it doesn't hurt anyone.
What if they changed its name to beatbox? It was an elementary project if I remember correctly.
It seems that the beatbox project plans to stay simpler and not follow the elementary project so much and that is why they decided to fork and then include the UI and elementary features in noise.
Dan Rabbit himself mentions it here http://elementaryos.org/support/answers/2641
Something like the Nautilus elementary and the Marlin, right?
If something like that, the elementary developers seem to have reinvented everything, they created a new file browser (marlin), their own browser, dock, calendar, contacts, environment (pantheon) and top panel (wingpanel), but when you put everything How much do you realize that it is a set that integrates as much as possible between itself, perhaps the worst thing about all this is that they take up more development time but they mean projects that are very interesting marlin and noise (beatboxs) without a doubt are the most popular after the topic.
Man, in clementine I have already put more than 30 GB of music to his collection and he literally swallowed them without complaint. So no complaints. Yes there are !!. This tendency to individualize to fart because there is opportunity or freedom to do so takes away the strength of large projects that could be even better. It happens with entire distros, let's not doubt what will happen with making programs that do not offer any different or extra functionality. It's certainly called "individualism." well, to think .. greetings people.
I share your opinion and I think it gives you enough to think in that sense. Variety is one of the best qualities of GNU / Linux, unfortunately the result of this variety is often not the result of looking for something new. Generally, it goes through the individualism of a developer for heading his own project and this in my opinion generates stagnation.
I do not know why it is increasingly difficult to group people for a common goal, I suppose it is a social trend.
In fact, this is something that always benefits the SWL because when creating or forging something, when wanting to make your own version of something, you still don't innovate, you create variety, you create something else to compete against or something others do. you can see… The stagnation is seen in fact, when people insist on supporting technologies that are doomed to die just because others are "not ready" yet, such as flash / gnash and HTML5.
But directly this ability to diversify so easily from free software is what allows it to evolve and be so huge.
Watch out for that "retrace", change it to "delay".
fixed up
Mhh it looks a lot like other players…., I just hope that one day they will release one with a decent online store (not jamend and others)
Kick record stores that the one who follows her gets it
Banshee has integration with Amazon. You like to find the frog's hair.
Banshee as its name says * banshee * sucks, plus there is almost no Japanese music on amazon.
Try Tomahawk, it does not have an online store but you can listen to a lot of music online (streaming) for free or paid if you have an account on grooveshark and Spotify.
I have tried many players on Linux and the only one that met all my expectations was Songbird, which no longer supports Linux. The fork that Nightingale released is still green, it has no integration with the desktop etc, so we have to wait.
In GTK I loved Exaile, then I used something lighter like Audacious, and in the end with the Ubuntu Rythmbox sound menu it became my favorite ... and, now, Clementine takes the glory 😀
Does anyone use Amarok?
People are still using the KDE monopoly hahaha !!
What matters to me is the quality of the sound. And I still don't know of anything that beats Audacious with the 'extra stereo' effect on. Unless someday Aimp is imported to GNU / Linux, which is the only thing I miss about Windows.
With Rhythmbox I handle well o3o Banshee and I fight a lot with importing files and playlists, maybe try Clementine or this new one, Noise, which looks good to my taste
If I don't remember correctly, rhytmbox and banshee were the players that were not even able to organize my collection well, for example they left songs like: 1, 2, 7,13,4
hahahaah
