FWIW: Who do you think classifies the releases on BeatPort?

The labels. Sometimes I have a straight Electro track that I want to get exposed to the house heads, so.....I'll label it "House".

There's a lot of great Electro in the Tech-House section / House sections and visa versa. 8)

So that annoying mistake of mixing up genres is on purpose? Put them in the right section.......surely they will sell better :wink:

My point, young lad, is that dance music genres are arbitrary and worthless. You should listen instead of look at the lable.
