i used to use tomahawk as a client for spotify but now like every other clients it wants premium membership to spotify, ace player though plugins to grooveshark and last.fm and loads of other sources. Selection_002

the website is here or just add the PPA to your apt sources. The different PPA are here select your distro apt get update and apt-get upgrade and then install,  apt-get install tomahawk

https://launchpad.net/~tomahawk/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

to install the spotify client that will play without premium do this from a terminal.

sudo apt-add-repository -y "deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" && sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 94558F59 && sudo apt-get update -qq && sudo apt-get install spotify-client

then the libcrypt fix as it doesnt just install straight out of the box on ubuntu 15.04

wget http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/libg/libgcrypt11/libgcrypt11_1.5.0-5+deb7u3_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i libgcrypt11_1.5.0-5+deb7u3_amd64.deb
