user Hiko3 mentioned (and others have, as well) that: If you haven't heard, Fede's Music app is a new application from the designer of Launcher Pro that is meant to imitate WP7's zune app. It's leaps and bounds nicer than the stock android player.
Check out this player here - it's really sweet!
FINALLY A SMOOTH MUSIC APP WITH A BEAUTIFUL UI!!!
Just wish there was a widget control. It would also be nice if you didn't have to reopen the app from the app drawer every time you wanted to go back to playlists.
Its got major potential though!
Latest version here if anyones curious

Hey guys,
I've just found two cool apps while i was looking for a music player that supports lockscreen widget. These two cool apps came by, the first one is LockGo which is a replacement for your stock screen unlocker. Cool thing I like about it is you can add whatever widgets you want to your lock screen (it's actually a launcher, but NEVER set it as a default homescreen launcher if you want to use it). You can also download other types of lock screens such as shout to unlock which i find is very funny lol. Another cool music player app to replace Mediascape is PowerAMP. I've tried many of the music players out there like DoubleTwist or MixZing and i didn't really like them. I think PowerAMP is a solid music player, you can download the trial version of it, i don't think the paid version is available yet. I love Mediascape but there're way too many flaws, speed being a major one. I'm on 2.1 now and i can definitely see the improvements, but i still find it really sluggish navigating through 200+ artists on my phone Hope everyone enjoys it I have nothing to do with the devs and both of them are free (for now), just wanted to share my good experience!
Yahoo! announced their new Play music player Android app yesterday, powered by Instinctiv. Looking for early testers to give feedback on the app. The app is powered by Instinctiv.
Check out the review in Mashable: http://mashable.com/2011/06/16/play-by-yahoo/
It's live in the Android Market here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.yahoo.player
On my phone, it's complete crap. The UI is slow, the songs are not sorted by album (artist only), and the purple hurts my eyes.
I have to agree with the above poster, Poor attempt Yahoo!!
What is the best music app available? I'm stuck on what I should get.

Try Using Poweramp, its available on the android market, its the best one ive ever used, it plays nearly all file formats and even has an option to search for missing album artwork and editing id tags
I took a look at Poweramp, and promptly uninstalled it. Someone had recommended it to me (based on an earlier version), but the new version's UI is just so unbelievably messy it's not worth trying to navigate it at all.
I personally use Real Player. Gets the job done. I'm looking forward to when VLC player is finally available though.

PowerAmp's new UI takes getting used to, once you're used to it, it's pretty much the best player out there. Downloads missing artwork, VERY advanced equalizer, I think it supports Wide Stereo too, but the X Stereo function is the bomb!
Poweramp and PlayerPro are the most feature-rich options. I use Poweramp and I like it, particularly the music lyrics plugin, but its UI needs a serious overhaul. It's made more for a pimped ride's in-car Android user interface than for a phone. So much glitter, neon and pizzazz makes people want to puke and I can relate with it... however, it works nicely, it's got a powerful EQ and it works very well with BT headphones. A pleasure to use, horrible to look at.
I use the miui music apparently. Its nice. At least I like it and its my favorite music apparently.

Have started using Realplayer and the fact that you can change song from the lockscreen is a major biggie! (To me anyway) I think it's also got a nice UI to look at too.

I have searched the forums, searched google and God know's where yet I haven't found one single music app I like. I liked the sense music player that came with the phone but I don't like using the default launcher and their isn't any widgets for it for other launchers.
And now I am on the paranoid android rom so I can't use that no more. I like Apollo for it's UI but it lacks many features. And I don't like PowerAmp. It has features, but to many for me. I am literary over whelmed of the features. I just want a nice UI and and a few nice features.
I'd also like an app that supports the HTC one x's nice HD screen.
By the way here's the ever growing list of music apps I've tried and don't like for some reason or another.
Google Play Music, Apollo, PowerAmp, WinAmp, UberMusic, DoubleTwist and SongBird.
At this point I'd pay for a music app.
The only things I want are a good UI that isn't ugly and an album art grabber (for downloaded tracks with none) and of course it has to have a widget (which even all I've listed has had one so I'm sure that's standard.)
And it'd be nice if it had a coverflow effect. The effect from google play music is nice but this isn't a required thing for me.

I've personally been using Doubletwist since I switched to Android from iphone and it's mostly been fine, just took a bit of getting used to but I think that's more about coming from iphone than anything that's wrong with Doubletwist. What didn't you like about it? If you buy the paid version it let's you download album art, and various other airsync features etc.
What exactly are you searching for?
I found this one music player.. very unique especially for people with hearing loss.
It goes through a process giving off beeps in your ears going left and right, then equalizes your acute hearing to perfectly fit your hearing. Its definitely ingenious as it helps me a lot, my right ear is kinda going out.
App - Soundbest Music player.
The widget is so so and the UI is simple but sucks.
3rd party Equalizers will help the music player as well..
At the moment I use Google Play for JB and SRS Panel with an Audio Mod. Yes I don't own a One x, I own a Droid incredible but I understand your pain of wanting the best music player. I've honestly searched up and down and really haven't found the best one. Poweramp is highly overrated, the equalizer and effects are terrible.
The only other app I've liked besides Soundbest is Neutron but even then the UI is a monster.. the widget is again so-so. But the effects and equalizer is unmatched.. perfect for a audiophile. I recent was using Semc Music player "Sony Walkman" but.. without a widget its almost useless plus it didn't active the equalizer on the fly.
The only ones I suggest trying are Soundbest and Neutron.

I've always really liked Playerpro. Well worth the few bucks, and I've tried everything out there as well.
Try xbmc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28757772 it looks great on htc one x, but it has few errors but looks greattt
From beast called HTC One X
If I didn't pay for power amp I would use Sony Walkman app

Thanks guys! Just tried it out and it seems to be what I've been looking for. I am not a fan of how the buttons (play, skip, etc) look blurry on my HOX.
Going to try all the others now to see if their is something better.

I really didn't like the UI mainly. I, myself came from an iPhone so I have heard about that when I was googling "how to sync music between iTunes and htc one x).
It's okay but I don't like music apps that put the album art and controls in a "drawer". Song bird does this too. I hate that :/
PlayerPro is my player of choice.
+1 for Playerpro. Plenty of skins available for it. Make sure you install the free DSP Pack too as it drastically improves the EQ :good:
I use the paid version of Poweramp and don't see what's not to like about it.

If you use player pro at least design your own skin.
I made a co-co sense 4 version.

I downloaded the apk from the internet(cant remember where) but it works on every ROM, so when switching between I can use it on all them lol
I would recommend you try Mixzing ( kinda like PowerAmp )
if you want nice UI with good amount of functionality I would recommend N7player
Here is the Google play link

Player pro is the best.

Hi all,
I'm the developer of Shuttle Music Player (formerly AMP).
Shuttle is a lightweight, simple & elegant music player for Android. It's based on the AOSP Music Player, with inspiration from the previous Google Play and the current Google Now.
Shuttle includes a built in equalizer, gapless playback (4.0+), queue support playlists, highly customizable widgets, sleep timer, scrobbling, dashclock support and more.
Shuttle has been on the Play Store for almost 6 months now, and is nearing 50.000 downloads!

Hey man, I love your app. Is the only player that works correctly on my phone :victory:.
Do you think there's a possibility to add ReplayGain support? I have some music that makes use of it and I can't enjoy them correctly because lack of that function.
I think it is Apple app when I see the shuttle

Thanks for the compliments, glad you're enjoying it. Replay gain is beyond the scope of Shuttle for now.. Since I use the Android API's for media playback, and there is no inherent support for replay gain.. So, it's not planned at this stage, sorry.

What a pity... Still the best player, though.
Today installed Shuttle+. Like it very much,nice UI.Only issue I have : While playing music, the EQ doesn't open and the app force closes.
After noticing this ,in CWM recovery I wiped cache,wiped Dalvik cache and fixed permissions on my leaked 4.2.2 Samsung S3 ROM. Problem persists.Can open EQ when there's no music playing,works fine then.
Imo EQ should be editable when playing music,as in Google Play Music.
Any thoughts and/or advice on this ?
Necro-post! Hopefully the dev is still around?
I'm switching from Google Play Music to Shuttle due to the fact that I don't like the way GPM behaves in 4.4.4 when I swipe it from the Recent Tasks (it stops playback, which is mind-boggling nonsense for me).
Is there any way to Import the playlists I have on GPM into Shuttle?
It would be nice to have the apk available as an attachment on the first post or a link directly to apk, instead of playstore.

I didn't know about his community. I knew the app was actively developed, but when I wondered if he was still around I mostly meant I was wondering if he was around here on XDA forums. Apparently he isn't though.
Hey there, I want to start off by saying I love your app - truly a marvel of development. I plan on buying Shuttle+, but before I do I have a couple of questions:
1. What exactly does it mean when it says I can edit "some" tags? I seem to have an issue where the files I have added to my phone (OnePlus 2) that are of the same album do not go together, but instead create 2 or 3 separate albums. I do not have this issue with my iPod, and believe it is a tagging issue but I can't find any differences in the files themselves. Also will I be able to add or change artwork?
2. I have this issue where I am seeing double. But when I go to settings > apps > all, there is no "media store", but rather "media storage". Are these the same thing? Again, I am using OnePlus 2.
Thanks
Hi !! Just got Shuttle+ from the play store. I was looking for a nice alternative to HTC stock player (discontinued on the HTC10) and I found your feature-packed app wonderful ! Built in EQ is a great plus. Keep up the good work, glad to contribute by getting the pro version !
One feature I really liked from another app I tried (don't remember the name) is the possibility to blur the album cover on the lockscreen. Makes for a beautiful look while listening to music !
Thanks again
