Windowmaker has its own sound server, extensions like meters and mixers for the dock, etc, etc... It's reasonably easy to set up, massively stable, extensible, efficient, yadda, yadda... I think Gnome and Kde pretty nice but maybe a bit more oriented to office applications and home users. If you just want to run an application or a small group of applications at a time or if you want to set up your own environment you can't beat X. MWM, Flux/Open/Blackbox, FVWM ...Afterstep.
