This topic sprouted up on another thread but I think it deserves it’s own post.

The more accurate the description, keywords, genres, etc one uses to describe a song, can only increase it’s chance of being returned in a search of a music library’s site. Any tips and ideas anyone would care to share?

  1. Meta Tagger’s “Lil Helper”….

    I just downloaded the mac version of this thesaurus/synonym app. It is really speeding up my keyword process! Just thought I would pass it on. :)

  2. If anyone is out there, would you be kind enough to give the song “The Way I Feel Today” a listen, and give me some idea of what other artist it might sound like…I have no clue!

    Should be the first song on this site.
    Thanks!!!

    • It’s a tough one for sure, because it’s so unique. It’s got that hazy 70′s vibe combined with some fiddle and country twang, so I’d mention acts like the Doobie Brothers and country stars from that period. It’s really chilled out, so terms like down tempo, relaxed etc are good keywords. There’s a little of talking guitar too, so mention Peter Frampton. Hope that helps.

      • Thanks for the listen/reply Matt. Ironically the drummer on this song is Chet MacCracken, who played with the Doobie Brothers for a few albums…At least you helped point me in a direction…Appreciate it!
