Well I don't know how much this program is known, but I just discovered it and didn really see any major topic about it here. As you can guess Listen is a Music player Amarok or Exaile style writen in Phyton and GTK. Im currently trying it and I have to say I quite like. Maybe even a tad more than Exaile. Somehow I find the interface nicer and better organised than the one Exaile. But thats just personal preference.

So here are the links: Listen (http://www.listen-project.org/) - Some screenshots (http://www.listen-project.org/gallery)

/edit:

If you want to download it, a current version is in the reps for feisty and an older for edgy.

Yea. Personally I found it to be a bit "slow" and "laggy" on my computer. Might be due to it using the Mozilla engine. And I personally prefer native GTK apps. But everyone has their preferences :D
