Just send me a blurb and selected screenshots, and you’ll get instant fame.

The first client to be announced is Konfetka, a Qt GUI interface recently released by afrol and BatteryCell. Try it out, it’s quite original and feature-complete!

Ding dong. New client?
Yesness.But… but… what is it?

Konfetka — It’s the abandoned kid of Amarok and XMMS1 who spent too much time around Yakuake when growing up and now is powered by XMMS2 and kryptonite, if those aren’t the same thing.

Or, in practical terms:
We got this little thing that we’ll be binding to KDE 4 when that comes out. However, even right now, it has wiki, album art, lyrics and playlist/medialib interfaces. The idea was to have a player that would appear and hide like Yakuake, rolling down from the top of the screen and hiding back up. Code’s messy, bugs are plentiful, but hey, its our first release and it is usable; so give it a try.

Here are some screenshots of version 0 alpha 1 (click to enlarge):

We think it’s rather cool.
