If it is your collection...

why not make up your own categories?

what better system of organization can you have, than the one you have made yourself?

My categories

Good - Meh - Bad

and under "good" i sepatate it further into -fast- -slow-
and under fast and slow I have terms like -dirty- -happy- -boomy- etc

and I know exactly where to find whatever I feel like hearing at any given moment.

Trance
house
techno
breakbeat

These are at the top of the list of electronica if thats the type of music collection you have.

I just do it by artist in alphabetical order. Makes it easy to find whatever I'm after. Lots of artists make music in more than one genre anyway, so I don't end up with my shit all over the place.

Nope. Not at all. Nothing like that exists anywhere.

DANCERECORDS.COM/ has samples and is categorized by genres & subgenres. The only problem is that sometimes theres more than 1 subgenre listed to describe a sample, so you have to use your best guess.

Bad Acid? (Such a thing!)

i arrange them in seven main categories: techno, house, trance, downbeat, jungle, breaks, hardcore and eight which is other. under other i put artists like aphex twin, squarepusher, dextro, william orbit, ochre... my advice is don't go into the subgenres because you'll loose your mind
