Using style instead of genre

I am in the middle of restructuring my music, and one of the things I am doing is using subgenres in the genre field, and then putting those subgenres into the big genre folder. (e.g. Alternative Rock would be under Rock). Then I can build smartlists that can call genres that might be crossover genres (say Country Rock would live both as Country and Rock).

Is there a way to have Jaikoz pull the style tag instead of the genere tag?

Hi, yes if you mean Discogs Styles versus Genres you can specify this in

Preferences:Remote Correct:Discogs in settings for the genre field at the bottom of the screen.

But note that MusicBrainz does not differentiate between styles and genres so you may want to disable getting genres form MusicBrainz by using Preferences:MusicBrainz:Format 2:Genre
