im trying to update the genres for each track, so that the genres reflect that track, and not the artist in general.
in preferences, under tags (2) there is an option "retrieve artist genres only"
when this is selected, all tracks that i update, contain the exact same set of genres.
example:
song1 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song2 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song3 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song4 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song5 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song6 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
some artist will have tracks on an album, that is a different genre, than the rest of the album. such as an acoustic cover, or just a different style of music.
because of this, it doesn't make sense to tag every song with the same genres.
when "retrieve artist genres only" is unselected, tracks that i update, only contain 1 genre, which is not enough.
i was hoping that unselecting this option would give each track its own genre description, specific to that track alone.
example:
song1 - Metalcore; Metal; Thrash Metal; Death Metal; Heavy Metal
song2 - Metalcore; Metal; Death Metal; Groove Metal
song3 - Metal; Thrash Metal; Speed Metal
song4 - Metal; Death Metal
song5 - Blues; Hard Rock
song6 - Metal; Progressive; Electronic; Dubstep
I use to use MediaMonkey, and i know that there was a plugin that was capable of doing this.
is there a way to do this is MusicBee?
