Not enough categories; artists should be able to be cross-genre

WeedWhacker	Date: April 23, 2003 @ 10:05 AM With the cross-genre, someone who uses synths to create music that isn't exactly classical and not exactly electronica could improvise. Just a thought." id="42752">I'm currently rather sick of lyrical songs and have found quite a bit of enjoyment in purely musical music. For the most part, I listen to "electronica", but what about those talented musicians who use real instruments to create "instrumental" music? Where would they be displayed? Also, the same holds true for synthed music that doesn't really sound like "electronica." With the cross-genre, someone who uses synths to create music that isn't exactly classical and not exactly electronica could improvise. Just a thought.
thumbtack	Date: April 23, 2003 @ 12:08 PM We're actually working on that. It means a complete database redesign from the way the site was originally built. It is in the plans...

WeedWhacker	Date: April 23, 2003 @ 8:24 PM Ah... BTW, this isn't really a "complaint"; it's much more of a hopefully helpful suggestion. I just didn't see a better place for it.
jmweirick	Date: April 23, 2003 @ 8:42 PM that sounds cool, i have some musical ideas i'm intending to get under way, they definitly cover many categorys.
Electroharmonix	Date: April 23, 2003 @ 10:42 PM yeah, I seem to be the one with crossing Genres between Techno and Psytrance. This isn't really a bit of a complaint either, it's to kind of back up WeekWhacker's opinion on crossing genres.

CountryMusikMan	Date: April 25, 2003 @ 9:43 AM How about a miscellanious category!
WeedWhacker	Date: April 25, 2003 @ 10:16 AM Ugh... a misc. category should only be used as a last resort, if at all. It'd promote grab-bagging of the worst kind; better to be cross-genre in two or three than to be "assorted."
