Hi @seth,
I’m not aware of any DJ software or music management that currently offers this feature, and I’m unaware of any dedicated meta tag info on tracks today that consistently support the notation of Explicit vs. Clean.
Just like you, I play many different events. What I’ve done is labeled my songs either CLEAN or DIRTY in the title field (i.e. Snoop Dogg - Gin & Juice [Clean]). You’ll find that most digital record pools are doing the same with their tracks. Also streaming services like Tidal does something similar where if a track is dirty they place the word EXPLICIT in the song title.
Additionally, I place my music into Crates (Serato/Engine Prime) to make sure I have a selection of music that’s playable for certain crowds/events.
Another option would be to use the Genre field to identify your tracks.
For example: So that I can easily filter down to find my different genres of House Music, some of my Genres are:
- HOUSE/DEEP/VOCAL
- HOUSE/DEEP/DUB
- HOUSE/CLASSIC/VOCAL
- HOUSE/CLASSIC/DUB
- HOUSE/ACAPELLA
- HOUSE/TECH/VOCAL
As you can see, I am very anal with my music. This is just some food for thought.
Cheers!
