Play songs according to your mood!!


Got a good news, Happy... Under pressure, Instrumentals... something bad happened, Sad... or enjoying the rain, feeling Nostalgic or Romantic.. Whatever may be the mood be there's always songs associated with it.

At times we really feel listening to them, but consider a typical example, You just returned from a cool engaging walk with your mate, feeling like cherishing the moments through soft, silent soothing songs when all of a sudden after the current track ends starts a hip hop fast paced regional song.. Feeling disturbed, even I would be.

Well of late technology has been able to recognize (nearly) songs according to the beats, flow and accordingly predict songs for the mood you select.. Happy, Sad, Romantic.. But again you cant get a proper free stable version of it. (if you are able to find one, lemme know :)

So lets Do-It-Ourselves and that too with your favorite media player.
Idea: Renaming the "Genres" or "Album" ID3 tag name to the desired Mood according to the song.

To do this:
Step 1: we go to http://www.mp3tag.de/en/download.html and download the free utility for tag editing. This can be done through any media player also but for most of the players its limited to tagging one song at a time and this soft allows to tag multiple songs at a time saving your time and lot of anxiety.

Step 2: Its a easy-to-use software. decide on the moods you want like.. Party, Sad, Happy, Romantic, Instrumentals etc. This being done, change the fields ("Genres" or "Album") accordingly and save the file/s (most important).

Step 3: Once set import your music collection to the MP3 Tag and then select-and-tag the songs according to the mood. Tag either "Album" or "Genres" field. Like, Its its a soothing calm romantic one, set it as romantic.

Step 4: Once this is done.. Thats it.. Alls Well. Import the songs according to "Genres" or "Album" you have selected and play them.

Now you will have only music playing according to the mood set.
You can also copy the songs to your portable media player too and hear to them on-the-go.

Queries.. Shoot them to me.
