    I'm having the greatest problem with the modern stuff, and I'm contemplatingf having a Modern Folder to shove 'em in until I decide where to put them.

    Katy Perry for instance. Pop? Female Vocalist? Other?
    Katy Perry in my case would just go in charts 2010and so on.Some useful folder titles , Kids Party,Action Dances, + 18 for any bad language,Country and Western & line Dance, Ska,Strict Tempo,Northern Soul,Film and Show Themes, are a few of the more fringe ones.

    I thought this was a good idea.....

    I created a


    Platinum
    Gold
    Silver
    and Bronze Folder( 4 folders)

    In each I put 500(approx) of the top 2000 tunes we need to do regular functions!!

    When I load up BPM I then use the folders accordingly.I need Platinum for all functions...(We Wiil rock you,Reach.A Town Called Malice ETC) and depending on the vibe i'm getting from the function I load.....Gold ,Silver ,Bronze etc.....

    Anything out of the ordinary I search for and play on VLC MEDIA PLAYER.The Modern Stuff I play directly from the ITUNES player....
