Hi guys.

Newbie here. Think I have a good bit of it set up but can't figure this bit out.

When I use the drop through menus and go to Genre then I get a list of artists...then I get a list of albums for the specific artist..The issue is when I go into Genre - Techno I have about 350 different artists who I am not terribly bothered about with names such as Sin, Trinity x etc etc etc..I tend to remember albums as opposed to some one off artist...


Is it possible to select Genre ( e.g Dance) then get into all the Techno album titles first instead of having to find the album through a specific artist on it?

Does this make sense?

Thanks

Ged
 
Have you tried Browsing (just remember to check Show Genre when browsing in iTunes preferences -> general):

Just select All Artists at the top of the artists list. That option is there, right?
If not just create a smart playlist for the genre(s) you want.
