I think it’s interesting to think of digital organisation in a slightly different way than physical organisation. I really liked Avalon Emmerson’s approach that she laid out in her Art of DJing as she basically utilises the technology of Rekordbox to max potential. Basically, if you’re just dropping stuff into folders you’re not doing it right. For some this is overkill but I think working with digital allows you to interact with your music in different ways and this means my sets when I play from CDJ’s are often quite different to when I play with vinyl. I kind of like this though because it keeps things interesting for me and makes the process slightly different between the two.
