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.
  • Notifications : Now Playing notifications (OS X & Windows) - support for OS-level notification systems (e.g. Notification Center) with fallback to its own native notification system
  • Networking / Connectivity : IPv6 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.

 You can finally stop chasing music across the web - to services to don't use or sources you don't have access to. Given the title or a link to a song, Tomahawk will find the best available source for you and just play it. So why wait, download the best music player available and enjoy your music.

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.
