Tracklist during Session

Liquie · Oct 31st, 2011, 08:02 AM

Hello all,

first of all I want to say that I am a yearlong lover of DI.fm! Great piece and session selection so far! Absolutely love it. The only downturn I found so far: when I listen to a session in winamp suddenly I hear a great song or remix and I have to look for the session's tracklist everytime online and then make a research through all songs... It would help immensly if you could update the session display to every track in the current session played. For live sessions it would be nice if you could make arrangements beforehand and perhaps updates during the session in case something changes... Thanks for consideration and keep up the great stuff!

I think you just summed up EDM there

While it's a nice idea, it's practically and logistically impossible to have tracklists/playlists for every mix that we air - it relies on DJs making note of what they play and then making them available to us to share with listeners.

I don't think we will ever stop asking for an 'ID' of a tune

Mh.. maybe in the future... with new technology available. I recently started to use soundhound on my smartphone to track down songs faster. Perhaps DI.fm + soundhound or some other program somehow incorporated would work magic. But soundhound does not always display the correct remix. Just the artist and title. Also, newer songs fail to show up.

Nevertheless, perhaps for sessions, which are older and perhaps get replayed you could display the tracks. Just a thought. Btw I am not familiar with the term "EDM"

It stands for Electronic Dance Music.

Like I said, it doesn't particularly matter how old a session/mix/show is, or how many times we play it - if there is no tracklist available then there's not much we can do about it.
