Anyone got a list of musical genre's? Trying to organize my chunes.

[Zaq]

Hey guys, I'm trying to start organizing my library by cleaning up all the sloppy tags in an attempt to make everything a lot more searchable with smart playlists.

One thing I really want to do is tag all songs by their genre...but as I started I realized that it was not very easy to label the sounds that I can hear are related in my head.

Basically, I don't have all the words to describe the type of music I have.

So, I'd like to compile a list of electronic music genres ... can anyone please contribute some genres that you listen to?


For example:

- moombahton
- dubstep
- dutch house
- nu disco
- indie electro

etc...

Thanks guys!

This was really just done as a joke I think, but it lists lots of the genres.

I make some genre's up to describe what I think a song sounds like.

Man, how many hours of my life I have wasted on that site, I probably cannot count - still fun once in a while, the texts are hilarious
