Group/sort playlists/albums/artists/genres into folders

Your idea makes me think of something similar: folders - for albums and artists.

Imagine if we could create a collection (or a folder) of albums, like a pile of CDs. I would create a collection with my favourite electronic albums and other collection with my favourite progressive rock... And I wish we could play through in random, in order or like one song of each album (randomly)… 

The same idea of collections could also apply to artists. A collection of my favourite artists from the 70’s…

Hi there @Benoit Robert 

Great feedback and suggestion, linking with the idea you created 

The good thing is that our product managers are looking into this next year, because we want to make it more personalised for you 

I need a folder (or way) to separate playlists that I create from curated and/or user created playlists.  

I would love a way to create separate folders in all areas of the playlists section to organise the number of playlists I have. Especially ‘My Playlists’ to organise my playlists into different genres and types etc.. 

I'm reluctantly navigating from Amazon Music to Deezer or Spotify. 

Sidenote* deezer needs crossfade bad

I'm nostalgic for the old organization of Apple and Amazon music. 

Playlists<>Artists<>Ablums<>Songs<>Genres

Sometimes I want to listen to an Album from an album with only the selected favorite tracks from it, not the whole damn album.

When I go to my Artist list I only want to see list of albums and songs I enjoy from the artist.

What I dont get about these new music apps is that there is alot of manual labor put in to create your own playlists. And that's cool, though. It enriches the deezer algorithm learn your flow.

But I miss the basic music organization of your own unique library that existed in old guard music apps.

This is something that both deezer and Spotify lack.

Is Deezer brave enough to bring this back?

Yeah I do prefer the system of just adding Tracks, and then Albums and Artists are just derived from that.

1. Add a track to Favourites - the Album and Artist now appear in your list
2. Add and album to Favourites - all the tracks are added to your Favourites, and still the Album and Artist are derived from this.
3. There’s not really any need to add an artist to Favourites.

If you organise this way, you can still get to an album or artist to play all of their music.

But the way things are in Deezer and others where you separately add the album and artists is annoying. You can’t shuffle albums or artists anyway. And maybe you only like half of the songs on an album, yet there’s no way to play just those songs from the album. You either play the tracks, or you play the whole album.

I think Apple Music organises this way still. I thought Spotify did too but must be wrong.

I’ve personally never understood the Deezer-style model. It just leads me to never use the Albums and Artists pages basically.

Though this is different to the suggested Idea we have here so I guess I’ll add it as a new Idea!

Added this as a separate idea. I agree totally.

Thank you for your feedback @teqteq @Stargift @racsotunes - much appreciated. We'll be passing it on to the right team at Deezer 

I disagree completely. There are plenty of single tracks I like from artists or albums that I couldn’t care less about as a whole.

Thanks for adding to the discussion @tjgavlick
