I use btunes, its an imitation of the ipod's music player, and it has lockscreen control.
I use PowerAMP, similar to winamp.

I'll check those out is there an app
That will give animation while music is playing you know like a laptop I finally got a 3.5 mm jack to rca out and its awesome but i'd like some animation to go with my tunes

Ive run several roms with beats, it is a good improvement over stock audio, but am curious to what people think of power amp and its functionability. Ive downloaded the trial and to me it seems better. Any thoughts?

Never used beats, but have had power amp for about a month and love it. Fiddling with the EQ really made a difference in my car while listening to music.

i absolutely love poweramp, it's one of the few apps i've shelled out cash for -- everything else is a free version with ads or whatever
I have to agree poweramp is awesome. the update with the beats audio actually made it 10x better IMO.
poweramp is soo good that once you get used to it, you actually stop caring about trying newer or diff alternatives. I have been using it for a few years and it keeps getting better and better, even when the dev releases a busted update, they are always quick to fix and will usually take suggestions from users on their forum and make it a reality in the next version, you can't beat that. Not to mention how epic the equalizer is, not even running a 3rd party EQ app and another music player have I come close to the sound quality I get with PowerAmp. Native album art downloader + lryics plugin form musicmatch (older pre player version ftw) , I just don't see how anything can compete with PowerAmp for playing back local music.

when i tried out poweramp i didn like it . It just seemed clunky. I prefer the sense 3.5 music player. It sounds good, looks good, and has an automatic album art downloader
the only time i use poweramp is to have a insane bass eq my friend made if someone wants to hear how loud beats can get
PowerAMP ftw! One of a double handful of apps that I've purchased. Used it on my EVO, even better on my Thunderbolt.

Can you guys recommend me one (or some) of the top media players for music? I've read many reviews but many players seem to be bloated with unnecessary things like online music/radio, syncing, lyrics, and other things that I don't personally need. All I'm interested in is something that presents a very nice UI, is easy to use, can create a now playing list (unlike Ipods..) and can enhance stock sound quality.
From reading, I think my best bet so far is Poweramp but I was just wondering if there were any good free ones out there or others I might want to consider.
Thanks!
edit: Also, to go along with this, I'm interested in what I can use to transfer/sync music from my computer to my phone. With wp7 Zune made it very easy to drap and sync, see what was already sync'd, etc.
If you had a Zune, you might like Ubermusic

I just downloaded the trial and am testing it out now. Yeah, its really good.comparing it with the stock player on my wp7...there's no comparison.seriously impressed. I don't have an sd card or case yet so for now I'm sticking with my windows phone for music at the gym but I will almost definitely buy this app as soon as I do get my full library up on here.
There's no way to use the zune software to communicate with my phone to sync is there? For now I used windows media player to sync but am wondering if there are better options...

I use double twist. Has a nice UI and works well enough for me.
I also just downloaded N7 which is getting fantastic reviews. I only have one album on my phone so kind of hard to really see how it works. Reviews are stating it's better than power amp. So far I like power amp better... anyone try both?
I have both and poweramp wins hands down
Does stock music app already have the equalizer there in settings?
I, in general, hate to use any third party apps that do almost the same as stock unless i removed stock app.

Poweramp is a great app. I tried them all and lucked up Poweramp when it was first released. It is well worth the price. The development has been spot on with ongoing support and regular updates..I I have used it across multiple rooms Samsung stock captivate, cm7, cm9, gnotes gingerbread and have never once noticed a glitch or incompatibility of any kind. The sound reproduction is excellent. I use it for audiobooks and to play podcasts downloaded with dogpile... The ui is intuitive, and still offers tons of tweaks and optimizations... Then there is the fact that the ui, as anything well designed tends to be, is down right elegant and a pleasure to use. Seriously, you will not regret the purchase.

I like Rocket Player because it works well with isyncr and isyncr wifi. It's free in the basic version and $2 for the unlocker which has more features.
Rocket Player is new but it promises to give Power Amp some competition.
Power Amp is no doubt the best but I don't need all of its features.
PowerAmp might be better than it used to be, but I think Player Pro is the best one on the market right now. It looks great, it's not some custom crazy interface (hello PowerAmp, even though it's a little better in 2.x), easy on battery, great widgets, lots of updates, the browsers are great looking and easily configurable, etc..
player pro
i use player pro it does the same a poweramp . excellent quality eq
I have tried literally everyone out there. Poweramp, Player Pro with the dsp options, n7, google music, the stock music player, installed beats audio etc. The best all around player would have to be a tie between power amp and player pro (with the Dsp addon)... but if you are into some serious sound quality and you really like tweaking and personalizing your sound use Neutron Music Player. It is seriously underrated, but the UI is kinda funky and it doesn't organize your music very well.
I just tried player pro and compared it with power amp. Player pro is nice, I love the interface but it still doesn't sound quite as good as power amp, even with the dsp add-on IMO. It's a shame because I really like the interface on player pro much better. It also seems to run smoother within android.

I didn't know where to post this but oh well. I currently use the stock music player that comes with the galaxy s2 but one thing I don't like say you're listening a playlist and a song then close the app and reopen the it will not be at the song or time you closed the app. So can someone recommend me a decent music player that doesn't have bugs and has the feature above?
the best of the best is poweramp with stylish design and tons of features and if you like it (which i'm sure you will) you should consider buying the full version un-locker
I like doubleTwist. It looks good and it's functional. It's free unlike PowerAmp(which is good too!)

I'm using PowerAMP from the beginning of my trip with Android (it's 2 years already / SGS2 is my 4th phone with Android). Best player for me.
...
poweramp for sure
Flash MIUI...
It has the best music player hands down. Plus you don't have to pay fit it.

PowerAMP gets my vote too - great design, powerful feature set, it really is the best.
WinAmp comes a close second if you want a good free option
First time user here so I'm not exactly sure where to post this. Sorry if it's in the wrong section.
I am an avid user of Google Play Music (Yeah I'm one of those people.) I use it mainly because I have a Youtube Premium subscription, and I still don't think Youtube Music is the better platform. But I really am getting bored of the design of GPM. I'm becoming less of a fan of how everything looks, and more of a fan of how minimal apps look (more like spotify)
Is there any way I can go around making GPM look more like Spotify?
