Tags Taxonomy
A taxonomy allow to create links between tags using a parent and a child. A comprehensible example is the musicbrainz genre taxonomy. drumstep is a child of dnb.
Taxonomy exploration
-
Radio based exploration. This is the most easy to implement. We use a taxonomy and generate a radio with all parents or child. This could be launched from the tag page.
-
Browser exploration We might want to have an UI page displaying taxonomy. Maybe in the form of a graph ? This page should allow to launch radios.
Cloning the mb genre taxonomy
see genre taxonomy and funkwhale genre
Wikidata genre taxonomy
On top of musicbrainz taxonomy there is also the wikidata genre taxonomy : see this example and here a search result of items containing music genre
Should we allow user based taxonomy ?
This sub-feature is dependent of user's tags feature.
Has @georgkrause suggested we could build a flexible taxonomy system allowing user to have their own taxonomy for any king of tag (bpm, genre, mood etc) : !2592 (comment 57636)
I think it's too complicated and will not be used (there is a lot of tags, building a taxonomy is very complicated). You can have a look at this for example https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/LB-1059.
