MP3 Tag Naming for Disney Music

[deetman]

Hey all:

Just wondering what sort of MP3 Tags people use for Disney Music....in many cases, Artists are unknown, Albums are non-existent. I want to easily be able to find, say, BGM from AK---I use "Disney Park Audio" as the Genre for it all, but the loops I've downloaded have all sorts of crap in the Name, Artist, Album fields.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Scott

If I bother at all, I'm afraid mine is really basic.
Title (usually including the area for BGM or the attraction), Artist=Disney and for album, usually the park the music is from.
Usually I don't bother and stick to what's already there, if anything.

I'm having a terrible time with tagging my files. I need something that A) Provides the necessary information and B) Fits on the screen when I'm choosing for songs to listen to on my iPod. Recently, I use the "Artist" field for the attraction and the "Album" field for the park and land. I'm not so sure I like it, but I'm happy with whatever works. (I organize everything based on the "album" field.)

Mine is somewhat based on the system UAB uses, with some modifications. It's not perfect, but it works for me.

Genre: I use "Disney Park Audio" for unofficial tracks and "Disney Park Music" for official albums, so that I can easily find both or all of one or the other.

Album: The name of the resort, like "Disneyland Resort" or "Walt Disney World Resort"

Artist: The theme park and land/area, for instance "Disneyland - Adventureland" or "Epcot - Future World". For parades and fireworks, I use "Parades and Spectaculars", such as "Disneyland - Parades and Spectaculars". For hotels and monorails I use "Resorts".

Title: The attraction the track is from and all other relevant information. For example:

"Entrance - Music Loop (2001-2005) - Complete Loop"
"MuppetVision 3D - Pre-Show"
"It's Tough to Be a Bug - Complete Attractton"
"Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade - 04 - Minnie Loop 2"

If I know offhand the year the attraction premiered I'll add that to the year as well. I intentionally do not use numbering for tracks or discs, as this would require me to number everything, whereas without it everything gets listed alphabetically in iTunes.
