Split Tracklists Forum

Tracklists forums is at full activity lately so when sometimes you post a set there to get the tracklist nobody replies because in a few hours the set is in the second page and nobody can see it.

To solve that and make the forum a little bit more tidy it would be great to split the forum in three sections, each one for each general genre. Like trance tracklists, house tracklists, techno/minimal tracklists... I know TA is a trance community but in a community of almost 80.000 members people have many different musical tastes. Actually we can see it in the tracklists forum where you can find not only trance sets.

who agrees?

That would be pretty cool. Or live sets vs. radio sets. Because you know that some genre purists would complain if something got posted in the wrong forum

genre-specific sections never work because nobody can agree on which music goes in which genre.

If you want it split up, you'll need to think of another method.

I'm not sure how much good that would do. I can't say I lurk that forum a lot, but aren't most of the requests there for live sets, since most radio ones have them listed (save for the asot storm)?

that's true! but I mean, only a noob can not agree in what is trance, house or techno.. I'm not saying in to split up the forum in many subgenres just in the main genres of edm.

But what bout something from Luciano or Ricardo Villalobos or Richie? Some people might say 'house' as in minimal or tech house, others techno? I dunno

1st, lurk moar.

2nd, that would require that the mix stays within the restrictions of one genre...restrictions which can't be agreed upon anyway.
