separate classical from pop/rock

 
  • separate classical from pop/rock

    Hi forum,

    I love both classical, pop/rock and house music.

    However, I please NEVER want to hear any of my favorite classical tunes when I am in the mood for "my radio" or "my recommendations".

    Thus, please introduce a way to separate classical from everything else on Last.FM! Otherwise I'd have to use a separate User account for "classical" and "everything else" -- not such a great "workaround".

    Regards David.P

    See this thread in this forum. You can use tags to get what you want along with other stations. (E.g. remove tracks tagged as "classical" from your recommendations.)

    Improve your view of Last.fm - add some User Scripts.
    Did I hear that right? Mondegreens - for the misheard word. Like Odds? Can't get better than Even Odds!

    Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
  • Thanks for the reply! Sorry that it took me so long -- somehow I wasn't notified by the forum.

    How do I use tags for filtering "classical" -- will I have to use Combo.fm for that?

    Or can I do it in my profile (where?) such that it also applies to the last.fm iPod app? (I only listen to last.fm with the iPod!)

    Thanks again,
    David

    Hi David,
    yes you can use Combo.fm for that.
    Go to http://www.combofm.de, click "Get Started", login by tying your last.fm username (it will only be saved in your browser).
    On the left side you can now choose from different stations. For your recommendations, click on "Personal stations", then on "Recommendations".
    Now, click on "Tags", type "classical" and click the "+" button. In the center area, there should be two boxes(stations) with a dropdown box in between. Select "not".
    On the right side, you can do some finetuning to your recommendations, like if the music should be more or less mainstream(less to the left, more to the right).
    Now choose click "Play in Software" (for playing the station with the last.fm client) or "Play in Browser" to use the last.fm website player.

    "Your recommendations but not the classical tag" would result in the following station:

    My forum post reflects my personal opinion :)
  • OK thanks but I`d rather NOT have to use Combo.fm -- since as I said I'm only listening to Last.FM throught the iPod.

    So I'm afraid I will have to delete all classical from my profile and create a separate Last.FM user just for classical?

    I don't use iOS devices, but it appears from the video that it should load ComboFM "radio stations" via Safari. (Click on the "Last.fm software" button on the ComboFM page.)

  • Thanks snyde, I'll try that.
