Sometimes i drive myself krazy trying to organize my mp3 Techno collection. I'm curious how the rest of u TA sort ur stuff?

For example do u classify by:
1. Date
2. Artist
3. Album
4. Genre (jungle, progresive trance, trance, house...)
5. Mood (mello, hard ,...)
6. Vocals/Instrumental
7. Other

my goa suff is in Goa trance folder..
arturob
all mp3z in a folder named:

ArturoMp3z
cdz have their on folder like: PvD (45RPM) etc...
Positiva
I have a folder called "Trance" i have more folders in that called: "Mp3's" "New Trance" "Trance to be burned" "trance to be compiled" and "Music Videos" oh yeah, and i have a "randomly downloaded trance to be sorted"

i have very little HD space on my computer, so I always rename the files to "Artist - Title".mp3 so i guess it's in Artist order. I have maybe 50 mp3s at MOST at one time on my comp. SUCKS FOR ME

i have all my single tracks by music genre->artist->track title. i have all my full cds and live sets sorted by artist->album or set title. peace!

This issue reminds me of the movie High Fidelity.
Its a Great movie bout a guy who runs an alternative record shop. At one point in the movie, after he breaks up with his girlfriend he starts to reorganize his record collection by who he was dating at the time he bought the record. Im like the main character, when im stressed out i like to resort my music, helps be bring order to a small part of my krazy life.

Everything electronic I have is neatly organized into mainly two folders, Albums and Singles. I don't even try to separate my music in to genres because to much of it overlaps and some of it just defies classification. :D

yep youre right! except for me. electronic i put under dance but i also listen to other music too. so my singles are classified in dance, hip hop, rock, ....so on and so on

i have one folder called trance! every track i download i tidy up by renamin and correct any mistakes if nessesary, then i id tag them in winamp coz i'm anal like that hehe! once my lil trance file hits 700mb i burn it off coz i worry about system crashin...paranoid maybe but just imagine..nah i won't even say it coz i got some hot tracks at the mo and when ya on a 56k never tempt fate hehe! oh yeh i also have every track and live set typed up on note pads for reference...like things extra tidy!

when i have extra time i tag them too. this would be the best solution to the problem, but most mp3 arnt tagged. there are players that can search ur drive auto sort no matter what the location is, but u got make sure everything is tagged.
