a good idea likes, gave it a whirl , but I put in Heiko Laux and it assaulted me with a tirade of naff ibiza style house and trance, almost, but not quite

can see where they are coming from, I guess it will refine as time goes on.

I've been trying out last fm/audio scrobbler of late, that seems to do similar but on a far more targetted level, not really scratched the surface with it tho, I'm a total noob

Saw this some time ago. Just tried it again.

Went from Plastikman to terrible old trance to some ok techno, to super fast tribal techno to boards of canada.

It's tough to please us folks 'cuz it's all the same to them pop-oriented folk. But it would be nice if someone got it right just once.

I like the idea you can click on the guide us button at the bottom and choose to never play that song again on your choosen radio stattion - i think by putting alittle work into what you're listening to you eventually get the right songs

I put in Richie Hawtin (mostly because he is so well known) and am getting tracks from artists such ricardo, audion, and nathan fake and the sort so yeah it works pretty good.
