Clementine is a music player program, extremely light but not lacking in power, that will allow you to listen to your favorite songs and your radio stations or effortlessly organize your library. These are precisely the three essential functions of this completely free program, thanks to which you will never again have to worry about accessing your favorite audio tracks.

When we think of this platform, and so that you have an initial approach to it, you have to know that it is a music player, but not one born from nothing, but rather based on the famous Amarok, present in computers with Linux. Unlike the original, in this one, we will find the absence of some functions, although, in general terms, this has contributed to obtaining a cleaner interface.

One of the first striking features of Clementine as a player is its internal navigation system in the application through tabs, so it is easy to jump from one folder to another or from one function to another. So, let's say you are listening to a song stored on your disk and want to switch to a radio station; you have to move from one tab to the other without closing the previous one.

Probably the best use we can make of this tabbed browsing system is in the Library , considering that in this section, we will have the chance to visualize all our audio contents. Thus, you can generate the playlists you want and execute basic options such as adding new songs, deleting or modifying their information, etc.

Moving on to Clementine's radio tab, we can find that it allows us access to two of the principal online radio stations of these times, in the case of Last. fm and SomaFM. Thanks to them, you will have the chance to enjoy many of the most popular topics, as well as others that are never forgotten, and if you want company while you work or study, it is undoubtedly a pleasant alternative.

This application has an exciting function, which allows us to add the latest songs we have listened to our Last.fm profile, which many users will surely appreciate.

Finally, you will also find an Explore tab, where you can move between folders on your disk to add new content to the Library, review the location of a particular song, or whatever you want. In this sense, it is essential to note that the system offers an integrated search engine for those moments when we can not find any particular content.

Clementine has an interface that has been well done, which is easy to use no matter which of the functions the program has to offer is the one we want to make the most of. Its appearance is eye-catching, and you will hardly confuse this program with any other, which speaks well because it maintains a unique spirit.

Also, if you have tried this platform in its beginnings, you will remember that many people criticized it for not having a tag completion system. Luckily that mistake was fixed not long ago, and now we can find all the missing tags in the music files thanks to the information from MusicBraiz. This data source will give you a hand if you don't know the song's author or album.

Have you stepped away from the computer for a bit and wanted to skip that song because it brings back some bad memories? Don't worry because Clementine controls it smoothly from a mobile device with an Android operating system. This is thanks to the official application developed for these terminals, which will allow you to manage the playback of your library remotely, the same way as in Spotify.

What do we like most about this program? First, it's easy to learn how to use, and all its functions are accessible. Then, it allows you to filter the content stored on your computer by album and artist, so it's easy to find exactly the song you're looking for. Finally, of course, the possibility of accessing two of the most popular radio stations these days.

On the other hand, if we had to mention some minor issues where Clementine has shown some flaws, we have to point out that the radio on a couple of occasions has stopped working for no apparent reason. However, this program is in full development, or so says its creators, which is why we believe this inconvenience should have a definitive solution in the short term.

In our tests, we must emphasize that Clementine has behaved in a generally stable way -except for some detail related to the radio, as we have mentioned- even when we have experienced its use on a computer with scarce power resources. If you are looking for a simple alternative to the boring Windows Media Player, and your computer doesn't have a lot of features to spare, this could be an excellent option.
