Install Dependencies

copy and paste this command in terminal window, hit enter and enter account password:

sudo apt-get install libgio2.0-cil-dev python-keybinder python-cddb python-webob python-pyquery python-numpy python-scipy gettext  python-xlib python-mutagen python-chardet python-pycurl gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse python-gst0.10

Installation

After downloading previous packages, open a terminal, cd to the directory where these .deb files lies in and fire the command:

sudo dpkg -i deepin*.deb python-*.deb

if there are any unmet dependencies, try

sudo apt-get -f install

Warn: don't enable global hot key

I enabled the global hot keys, and the player don't start the second time I run it. If you have done it, edit the following config file:

vi ~/.config/deepin-music-player/config

change enable = true to enable = false in the globalkey field. save and exit.
Global hot key now works.

Integrate with Unity shortcut list

make a new text file in ~/.local/share/applications, filename is deepin-music-player.desktop. copy the following code into this file.

[Desktop Entry]
