Music player without gnome dependencies for a light desktop.

Im looking for a gtk music player like exaile or quodlibet (some app that manages a music library), but doesnt have gnome dependencies. I always end up installing gnome-vfs, gconf and others because gstreamer pulls them.

MPD with Ario as client. Sonata is good MPD client too.

There are also Beep Media Player (package 'bmp') and Audacious (package 'audacious'). Both of these are "modernized" XMMS forks.

I recently found Googles Music Manager, which is really lightweight. However, it's not GTK, so it won't fit your theme. It's built on FOX, another toolkit I hadn't heard before, but I really recommend it. There is a bbs post over here written by the author and it's also in [community] as musicmanager.
