When I buy something, I add it to my library. If I need or want to listen to something in more narrow a category, that's what playlists & metadata are for.
For example, if I just want to listen to songs by Miracle of Sound, I go to Miracle of Sound in my music player app and click play or shuffle.
If I want to play a particular playlist that I've made, I just go to the Playlists tab and select which one I want.
The interface of course varies with the app.
+1 on Vinyl music player
afa music collection, I slowly shift things from folder to folder where I gradually cull tracks which I decide I no longer need to hear. I curate rather than hoard (although I see long term value in others opting to keep everything for the sake of all; so 'hoard' is not intended to judge those who do in this instance).
To find new music, I lean on Bandcamp. ofc they're trying to sell the artist on the platform; but the blogs are often quite good, steering me to stuff I would've unlikely discovered on my own. If I identify a new genre that I've gravitated towards, I read up on it, e.g. on Wikipedia, to find other artists emblematic of the style
Yeah, Vinyl Music Player is awesome. Been using it for a a couple years now, and before that I used the app it was forked from (I can't remember the name).
And yeah Bandcamp is fantastic! I use it all the time to discover artists I'd never have known about otherwise. :)
