just noticed that the add-genre popup needs some markup-change: currently there are radiobuttons without labels. instead of <li> <input class="parent_genres" type="radio" name="tag" value="1"/> Drum & Bass </li> you have to change it to <li> <input class="parent_genres" type="radio" name="tag" value="1" id="rb_dnb" /> <label for="rb_dnb">Drum & Bass</label> </li> the usability of this box is a bit poor without those label-containers because you have no choice between clicking the tiny radiobutton itself or the text next to it!

what do you think about adding something like "Wobble" as subgenre to dnb? maybe someone has a better name for this!? or should those tunes/releases/labels be tagged with "Drum & Bass/JumpUp" ? (there is a lot of JumpUp i like but i don't like the wobble-thingy at all) further it would be great to have a page with a few examples to to every genre/subgenre (in case it doesn't exist anywhere on rdb).

Yeah you are totaly right: every release page of darkhorse (except dhr003) is easy to read because artist title seperator is in a vertical line for each track. So applying it for all release pages of rdb would not affect those which already have it in an vertical line

in case i will upload clips of a cd whichs first track is a 40 seconds intro: should this be uploaded in full length? i think there also some "tracks" called "sample me" by Dev Paradox which are pretty short....

sorry but i really have to disagree! http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/caipirinha_music/cai2012/ its great to have that genre thingy and soundclip link for each track but its getting more and more ?challenging? to consume the information. i am sure that seperating artist and title in one vertical line would make it easier! whats the opinion of all the rdb-users?

[kidding] next time you plan a rdb party choose a location in vienna/austria that i also can be there! :rolleyes: [/kidding] i whish you guys much fun! :cool:

the naming of the clips does not work for every tune in the database! for example "ar010-a" would have to match 2 different tunes http://www.rolldabeats.com/search/catalogue/ar010 @haste: also the request done by the swf is not able to seperate this! i think the best way would be to name it like the integer track-id of rdb. of course it is not comfortable for clip-submitters but there would be a few advantages: *) same catalognumbers of different labels could be submitted & requested *) a submitted clip would match every appearance of this tune in the database and there would be no need to upload Roni Size's Brown Paper Bag with 30!!! different clip-filenames *) in case the CatNr gets a correction there would be no need to correct any clip-filename anyone has a better idea/solution? (prefixing the catnr with labelname would also cause problems in case of label-name-change) greets from austria hanswurst

perfect! thanks again :smile:

Same for the genre! i know that it is standard to have a genre attribute for an album but not for singletracks of an album. but this standard is absolutely nonsene. its 2009 and time for a change!

i noticed something on the release screen which changed in an unhappy way. artist/title seperator is not in a vertical line which makes it tedious to check all tracknames on the first sight. tracknames in old version had been readable very fast. (of course this example is not as pretty as it looked before the relaunch) 01. Grooverider & Optical - Cybernetic Jazz 02. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Roya Arab) - Rainbows Of Colour 03. Grooverider & Optical - On The Double 04. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Sophie Barker) - Time & Space 05. Grooverider & Optical - Where's Jack The Ripper? 06. Grooverider & Optical - Fly With Me 07. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Cleveland Watkiss) - C Funk 08. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Sophie Barker) - Imagination (Part 1 & 2) 09. Grooverider & Optical - Rivers Of Congo 10. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Sophie Barker) - Imagination (Part 3) 11. Grooverider & Optical - 560 Degrees 12. Grooverider & Optical - Starbase 23 13. Grooverider & Optical (feat. Roya Arab) - Rainbows Of Colour (Heaven's Breath Mix) it takes much longer to read only the tracknames even with the same artist for all tunes http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/higher_ground/high6cd/ maybe the old version wasn't that pretty but the information of the tracktitle was easier to consume (for me). for me the usability is more important than the look pretty thingy what do you guys think about? greetz from austria hanswurst

thank you for this one haste! Unfortunately i told you a wrong info about the filename after a drag and drop action out of the browser (firefox). A drag and drop action of the favicon left of address-field onto the desktop creates a filename like the xyz of the xhtml document. but a drag&drop action of any link inside the creates a file which is entitled like the linked text.xyz creates xyz.url please add something like: permalink to labelname cat at rolldabeats.com sorry for beeing tedious but it should not be that time-intensive to change it! Thanks in advance and sorry for the wrong info! hanswurst

well done! thanks a lot :smile: *EDIT please link to this sound clips thread! this one? http://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=37319

i agree with geist. its often a bit disappointing to have no search results about very good dnb tunes i am listening to. what are the disadvantages of including ALL dnb related music? .) having a lot of search results which the user does not like to see solution: a search filter which can exclude DD's really would be no problem. the users who does not like to see DD's would notice no difference .) server performance issues especially searching: solution: rdb is really a very small database and there are a lot of possibillities to make such things faster (sphinx, memcached, ....) .) tons of TODO for the few people who are adding the releases into the database solution: all rdb-members should be able to add information directly into the database it is only a time-issue to code that, i would offer my time to code that because i love rdb so much did i forgot some disadvantages without solution? cheerz, hanswurst

are this really the same releases (Quest Foundation & TMS-1 - Exploit Yourself / In Money?)? http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/solid_g...cordings/sgr002 http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/solid_vinyl/sv002 i have the feeling that Solid Ground SGR002 should be removed. maybe anyone can confirm this!?

you are da man! thanks a lot!

i think we should go with the non-web appearances until we have further clarification. logo of vinyl(s) reads: Motion Sensor Records

http://makava.at/fileadmin/temp/id_me_plz___aprox_2002.mp3 unfortunately i have forgotten the name of this tune i thought it was dj sage or echo but now i think i am wrong. please help! thanks in advance

pretty sure that not many people are able to post clips http://makava.at/fileadmin/temp/d_kay-gole...01_A___CLIP.mp3 http://makava.at/fileadmin/temp/d_kay-red_...01_B___CLIP.mp3

http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/digital...dings/sboydd005 Benny Page & Visionary - No No No further i recommend to include the phrase "FREE" in the rdb-created catalog-number (forum/topic=51099) for all SBOYDD00*

happy new year 2 all 2 you! yesterday i found 4 free tunes (320KB) on http://www.sonorousmusic.co.uk/cms/index.p...;act=latestNews. i remember that some free digital soundboys had been added to the database a few months ago. the difference to the digital soundboy addition is that only one of the 4 tunes is dnb. but the other three are by the hungarian dnb artist ICR. Sonorous Giveaways (2 Apr 2008, 19:30) Mixmaster Doc & Surora - Angels ICR - Hungry Man ICR - Sentillmental ICR - Jemby i think all 4 tunes should be added because because rdb is the place to find out more about the origin of dnb(artists) tunes. further i recommend to include the phrase "FREE" into the rdb-created catalog-numbers for free downloads like: transmute_recordings/tmrfree001 backlash_records/mpfree001 corinthian_recordings/corfree001 corinthian_recordings/corfree002 corinthian_recordings/corfree003 corinthian_recordings/corfree004 corinthian_recordings/corfree005 corinthian_recordings/corfree006 make_shift_records/msrfree001 do you agree with me that this should be added?
