Love it :)
I have always wondered about your exact definition for these tags of yours:
- maschinenmusik
- vicious disco
now I have the answers.
Excellent! -

Thanks for publishing this. A tag encyclopedia is actually missing on Last.fm. Could be fun to spread in your groups.

Ubox escreveu:
Hello! Nice idea but was it you who connected the artists with the genres and styles?
Because this just sounds funny:
techno . Expect The Prodigy, Underworld & Paul van Dyk.
I don't really know how you mean expect. But the prodigy has never played techno. Their style is almost impossible to define but are definetly not techno.
Underworld is tricky. Their most well-known track is Born Slippy .NUXX(my love <3 ) and the original Born Slippy is quite techno-like. But if you listen to other songs like Underneath the Radar or 8 Ball they are nowhere near the techno genre.
Paul Van Dyk is the one of the best trance Djs in the world. As a prominent trance Dj calling his style techno is one of the biggest sins I could imagine.
If these faults were intentional or wanted to show wrong tagging habits then I made an ass out of myself instead of learning for my exams...yukky :D
Cheers... -
farangstar escreveu:
Hmmm. Since this is my encyclopedia, these are my associations. I checked which artists I tagged several times wth a specific term and gave examples of artists one can expect when clicking on my personal tags.
I don't think wrong tagging exists in the world of last.fm If someone feels the need to tag Lindsay Lohan as nu deathmetalcore, so be it.
I'm glad you gave me the reason to explain my mode of working here. :) -
Ubox escreveu:
Difference of opinion, I think genre and style tags should not reflect the tagger's personal opinion for many music styles are quite distinctove and should be tagged correctly. For expressing opinions by tags use the ones like very cool I love it and stuff. Of course it is different when it comes to mixed styled or barely definiable music.
Don'T misunderstand me, what you're doing is fine by me, that was just my two cents. -
farangstar escreveu:
I perfectly understand where you are coming from, but I still think that you're misreading it. Most of the people I'm connected with here don't take this too seriously.
And I do think I am allowed to tag an artist as something that feels highly individual and - at the same time - is generally true or real (although I tend to stagger with these terms on a day-to-day basis).
I am not in favour of rules within this site - rules that you seem to need or want but are in fact not what makes last.fmm --- it's the members and joiners and funners and artists that make it.

@ farangster:
Top, aber ich will ja nicht die Worte anderer wiederholen, drum:
Zauberhaft! ;)
Darf ich's kopieren?
@ Ubox:
My 2 cents is: I think Born slippy is quite Techno and I'd say it is Underworlds identifying song. 8 Ball and Under the radar in my eyes never were close to the success of Born slippy. So my association with them is Techno, too.
And though I DO agree with you on Paul van Dyk, I'd say that splitting up EVERYTHING into ALL categories will drive you crazy. And if you only listen to trance in technosettings since you like the mix of beats and rhythms, well name it after a preference! Cause, finally we're not here for an exam to reach our doctor's degree in music... ;)
But, nice to know there are some orderly people ready to pick up the fight for correct tagging. It's so neat. I feel as if Monica Geller has become real! :) -

Wow, grad hierdrüber gestolpert, sieht vielversprechend aus! Muß ich bei Gelegenheit mal ausführlich würdigen. Underworld ist allerdings m.E. kein Techno, sondern Pop, die Einstufung daher ein mittelschweres Verbrechen. :-p Aber viel gutes Zeug bei, keine Frage. -
