Tomahawk : the Swiss Army Knife of Music Players


After a quiet year, Tomahawk, the Swiss Army knife of music players, is back with a brand new release to sing about. The latest release of Tomahawk, version 0.8 is available for Linux, OS X, Windows and a beta app for Android. I have to say, Tomahawk is hands down the most beautiful music player I have used. 

"A new kind of music player that invites all your streams, downloads, cloud music storage, playlists, radio stations and friends to the same party. It's about time they all mingle."


You can add your favourite music subscription services, music promotion platforms, networked libraries, cloud storage, music data providers, social networks and more.

Some of it's features are :


  • Connect to Music sources and services : Beats Music, Google Play Music, Spotify, SoundCloud, Last.fm, Rdio, Billboard, iTunes, Jamendo and many more.
  • Get Social : Connect to friends to browse and play their libraries, playlists, stations, or just listen along what they are playing. See and hear the loved tracks and recently played tracks across your network.
  • NotificationsNow Playing notifications (OS X & Windows) - support for OS-level notification systems (e.g. Notification Center) with fallback to its own native notification system
  • Networking / ConnectivityIPv6 Support to make directly connecting to your other computers and networks much easier and more reliable.
  • Interoperability You and your music influencers may have similar tastes in music, but not necessarily the same music services and sources. With Tomahawk its easier to find and listen to the songs others shared from the music service of your choice.
  • Aggregation : No more searching the songs you love across the web and multiple apps. Bring them together in one place with Tomahawk.


Tomahawk is totally free and open-source. If you are interested in joining the team, adding new features, writing plug-ins or contributing in any possible way click the link below.

How to enable Google Now in Nepal and other countries (Solve - Google Location reporting not available in your region problem)

Google Now was first introduced in Android 4.1 Jellybean and it has been used as a personal assistant by many android users ever since. However after the introduction of Android 4.4 Kitkat many users started to complain that the search update broke google now functionality.   Some of you might just have bought a shiny new Nexus 5 to enjoy a fine android experience but the lack of Google Now left you disappointed. When on the home screen of the default Android Launcher, swiping to the left should take you to the Google Now interface but for some of the users it is nowhere to be found. Also there are many people who flash custom roms to enjoy latest android builds on their devices. I am using Galaxy Nexus which didnot get the Kitkat update from Google. So i flashed a custom rom which promised the Google Now feature on the left side of the homescreen of default Kitkat launcher. But like some of you Nexus 5 users i was left disappointed. So i began my quest for searching a meth

How to enable Google Now in Android 5.0 Lollipop in Nepal and every other countries (location reporting not available problem) [ROOT Needed]

  [This method works only on Rooted Devices] I had posted a guide earlier this year on How to Enable Google Now in Nepal and other countries. That method works flawlessly on both Rooted and Non-Rooted devices running Android 4.0 to Android 4.4.4 Kitkat. Android has now gone into major overhaul in both design and software functions like ART being now default in Android 5.0 Lollipop. But with the new version of Android, same old problem arrived for the people living in Nepal and many other countries - "Location reporting is not available in your country". Tried every available method to enable Google No w ? Still no luck??  Keep calm guys, I have a solution. Remember that this method works only on Rooted devices. Here's a video showing Google Now running on my Phone. (ignore Ariana Grande news there. I googled her only when I was shocked to hear Big Sean is dating her :D ) Here are the steps to be followed: Step 1 : Install any custom launcher. I

Gnome Extensions I Use To Enhance My Desktop Usage

I am currently running Fedora 22 with Gnome 3.16 . One of the best features of GNOME are shell extensions. These extensions bring all sorts of handy features to GNOME. Installing and using GNOME extensions couldn't be any simpler. Simply browse over extensions.gnome.org  and look for the extension that appeals to you. Click the switch from Off to On, and immediately you're prompted to install it. That's it. Here are the extensions that I use to personalize my Fedora 22 experience and maximize my performance. Hopefully they can make you enjoy your Gnome Desktop experience. 1. Activities Configurator It can be used to configure the activities button and Top panel appearance. https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/358/activities-configurator/ 2. Alternate Tab GNOME Shell’s default Alt-Tab behavior groups windows into a single application icon and shows applications from all workspaces. This extension substitutes Alt-Tab with a window based switcher that
