Share There are plenty of options when it comes to music player on Ubuntu. However, it doesn’t hurt to try some new one’s (which don’t come installed by default). One such player is called Gejengel. I am still struggling to get on with the pronunciation. It’s a very simple and easy to use player. Home

It’s amazing that you are translating and sharing to reach a wider audience. That’s the essence of open source. I am planning to soon have creative common licensing for my site so authors like you can translate, copy and publish this stuff without permission

I used to love this player, I was using it on my windows and linux but recently I removed it from Linux, the only bad thing about it is Java, I hate programs made with Java, they are so slow.
