# How to set up genre specific Auto DJ with autoloading playlist

Intro: In this LibreTime tutorial we will focus on how to build a
|

traditional auto DJ system where we use a feature called smart blocks
|
||||
and auto loading playlists to play random music tracks of a certain
|
||||
genre during a show. This tutorial is primarily focused on program
|
||||
managers but users who are DJs can also benefit from smart blocks but
|
||||
will only be able to manually schedule them.

have uploaded a number of files of music with the genre metadata all

matching a specific genre for instance alternative. This can be done

ahead of time but LibreTime has no way of automatically grouping sub

track metadata before you upload it to libretime as there is not

currently a way to bulk edit tracks from inside libretime. Also once

matching a specific genre, for instance, Alternative. This can be done

track metadata before you upload it to LibreTime as there is not

tracks are uploaded the metadata of the track itself isn’t changed but

made were saved.
