You don't need to. Just put

        APT::Default-Release "stable";

in /etc/apt/apt.conf (you need to create it if it doesn't exist), add a source 
for unstable in your sources.list (usually you can just copy-paste the stable 
one and change 'stable' to 'unstable') and then do:

        apt-get update
        apt-get -t unstable install xmms

This will pull only the minimum from unstable than is needed to install xmms.
