| in four sections. House/techno, drum and bass, ambient/idm, experimental/post-rock/everything else. Within those sections alphabetically by artist, chronologically within artist. |

hrmm...
by genre.. house, trance...
and for now, those that mix well go up front, those that dont go in back... occasionally some from the back move up to the front as my skill increases. |

| I sort my vinyl by genre trance/psy/tech house/french house. When I buy new records I analyze them and write down information about every track in my little book. I write down the BPM, Sub-Genres(Tech,Psy,dark,epic), anything that stands out (synth lines,vocals,bass riffs) and finally I rate every track 1-4stars. This way I can find that dark-tech track with a low bass riff that I want in my set easily. NOTE: I lost my short term memory in college. Also note: if you don't have a short term memory it is very hard to have a long term memory. Now what was I doing again... |

| In my record bay I catalogue by bpm and each bpm is sorted by key. The other records are just random. |

| I go by genre right now but, I've only got about 80 records. I can see that as my collection gets larger I'll have to make some adjustments to that system though. |

| mine kinda go into my crate in the order i buy them. the newer, the closer to one side. i always keep all my vinyls in the same spot to. i always know where each one is too. |

I have 4 crates one with breaks, one with harder/darker NRG and one with happier stuff. The last one has my old albums and some jungle, and house.
There really isnt an order though. I for some reason can find what Im looking for when playing. |
