Mass Genre detection tool

Mass Genre detection tool

I have a load of tunes that are just labelled ‘House’ and I want to put them into a more specific genre bracket, ie Progressive, tech, electro etc…

I can doa few myself, after all Electro, Latino, deep and vocal are easy enough to marginalise, but others I stumble on.

is there a tool/program/function I can use that will cross reference itunes and correctly judge what genre a tune is?

Would be a great tool if there was as it.

Just do it yourself dude.. you’ll get to know your tracks, develop a feeling for them and you can throw the ones you don’t like right out.

Yeah, been doing that the last couple of nights, but a couple of things I’ve labelled as electro aretech in Beatport and I realised I’ve hardly labelled anything tech house!

Suppose I can go through a few times and fine tune as I go…

Trainspotter ftw.

well as long as you divide them into what YOU think the right genre is.. does it matter what it says the genre is on BP?

Have you tried TuneUp?

you can cross reference with whats on beatport, BUT say one track is labelled “electro” another label might release it as “house”

but at the end of the day, just try do it urself, you will save a lot of time :smiley:

No, what’s that?

There is that, I suppose :stuck_out_tongue:

This. I make up my own genre sometimes so that I can play like songs together. I have shit like disco house, loungy house, jungle, tech, trendy house!!! LOL

Who knows what they really??

Sometimes I look in Wikipedia and check the tags there. Sometimes I look into BP. Sometimes I look up the artist itself to see in what genre think his/her music is.

If else fail I always write a comment about the track itself on the IDtag.

Is subjective, no?

I have Disco House and Pop House and Jazz House. Might steal that Loungy House from you though.

If it’s really bugging you OP send me all of your house tunes and $200 and I’ll tag them accordingly. :wink:

Genres are really a personal preference thing…

regardless of what others may think, I tag my tracks based on genres that I can relate to.

+1 for the comment about doing it yourself to know your tracks… that’s a really important thing. If you auto tag your tracks, you may find yourself becoming frustrated when tracks are categorized incorrectly.
