Filter Flow by custom tags


Will be good to have ability for filter user Flow by tags, for example now I want to hear Flow only with tag 'Rock', tomorrow - 'Classic', etc.
Hi @MurzNN! And I would like to add here a thing like Flow "NEW" (gives you new or rarely heard songs, but in your music taste)! Nowadays I keep finding my self in a situation when I start Flow and I have to skip the first 30-40 or more track to find something I haven't heard a million times already. 😕
I don't think Flow is working very well.



I almost don't use Flow because it's mixing everything without any sense.

The concept is great but is poorly implemented.

I have a very eclectic taste in music. I enjoy discovering new songs and groups but also I go back to the classics, sometimes for "historical" reasons. Also, I enjoy classical music.

What is the sense to mix Glenn Gould with Acid Dad, Sau Poler and Paolo Conte?

Flow need an urgent implementation of filters (year, label, genre, style...) and tags.



Thanks, Deezer!
Adding to this, I have the feeling that Flow is mostly playing music I recently listened to a lot or that is in my loved songs' list. It would be cool if it could pick songs from my favorite artists more often, those whose albums I haven't added to my collection.
What is the problem: sometimes people don't want to listen some type of music, for example, when trying to sleep at night or on the contrary to rest. Then I want to hear something peaceful, or desirable, respectively.



Therefore I propose to add, for example, in the Flow block buttons with smiles appropriate mood music.(😉 for sleepless night, 😴 for lullaby)



PS. Also It may be good to create option to start Flow based on some track.
If they develop this filter flow, and name Flowter, or Ownflow or another. And they keep this Flow what they have now.
It is annoying to have a nice punchy Flow interrupted by eg classical music or even audio. Thus, the use of filters or tags (for including or excluding specific genres or selecting a specific mood) would be stella!

Hey there, moved your idea to this existing one 😉
yea so my flow keeps playing Christmas music. I love Christmas music and have a pretty good Christmas playlist, but come on Deezer, only during Christmas!
To award my kids for good behaviour, I sometimes allow them to listen to kids audio plays on deezer.



But any time I do that, my Flows (mostly hardrock and metal) are interleaved with audio play parts. Is it possible to avoid specific genres in a flow?

Hey there, that's not possible at the moment but it's been sugested already, so I've moved it to the ongoing discussion about it where you can vote for it to be implemented 🙂
I have very different music taste for different situations


  • Relax
  • Work
  • Dinner
  • Party
  • Driving
  • Etc
Being able to tag a song based on a category (likely multiple categories) would be great. Then Flows can be made from these and new song in the same genre
Am also missing such "Flow by Genre" and "Flow with songs that i did not listen to yet" a lot !!

How to push this?

yes, to add to this, i also like the idea of ‘Custom Flows’. It would be great if you could store them as a playlist, or even separately in a ‘custom flow’ area. Being able to set filters as suggested above would be a big plus, another filter that would be awesome would be: the % of songs that you get in the flow that are already favourites, vs those that are not. E.g. the “Discovery” flow is 100% new songs, just playing your favourites is 0% new songs, and the current Flow is somewhere in between. It would be great if you could set that %.


This is one of our longest-standing debates @Rik4444 really glad you could give your feedback too, much appreciated :wink:

Hi everyone,

We aren't looking to develop this idea because we have now Moods for Flow :relieved: but we may revisit this in the future!
