Hi,
Most of you probably know that the artists' discography categories are a total mess. There are lots of hidden albums (ex. clean versions), hidden tracks, Remixes of one song put in an Album's category and much more. My idea is to simplify the discography panel to search music that we love more efficiently.

I will start with the existed categories. At the moment I have found several of them:
-Albums
-Singles
-EPs
-Splits
-Featured in
-More albums
(let me know if there are more)
The last category is very funny because there are all albums that are not categorised :grinning:

Anyway, my idea it to create categories that are less complicated and more appropriate:
-Albums (only albums and nothing more)
-Singles (only singles and nothing more) (category is working correctly right now) [I think it's up to 3 songs in Deezer's API]
-Compilations (rest albums like Remixes that are in Album's category; EPs; etc.)
-Collaborations/Splits (albums by different artists featuring this artist)
-Featured in (Various Artists) (featured in albums by Various Artists like: Bravo Hits; Greatest Hits Vol. 39; Summer Party; etc.)

I have created a simulation to better understand my idea. I have chosen one of the most popular artists to visualise it clearly.

I hope you like it. Don't forget to leave a comment and vote for my idea. If you have your own ideas, feel free to share it :)

Hi there @pawllo01 

Thank you for your suggestion!

I've passed this on to our devs but don't forget to 'advertise' to other users so that we can get more feedback to the teams interested in this :thumbsup_tone2:

I really like this idea. Also would like to see it categorized like the simulation.
