[Feature request] Add Genre filter

[Kaiman22]

Hi,

it would be great to be able to filter by gerne.
Would it be possible to add this feature?

Also, I saw that at some point in time there was the option to use Genre Radio as input stream.
Is there a reason why this was discontinued?

Thank you for this great tool! Makes my life so much easier!!

Best
Kai

this should be easy enough using the get several browse categories call. You'd have to specify your location and locale. that would give you all the unique categories which is what i expect @Kaiman22 is looking for. You could also make it more generic by just pulling a list of playlists based on a given genre_seed.

I'll look into it. I was planning to play with this a little this week.

Hey guys! Any updates on this? From using other tools, it is clear there are a ton of genres/sub genres, but having the ability to use expression based syntax (e.g. RegEx) to extrapolate key genre words from an otherwise immense genre list would be great. This way, you only need to tie in to the genre field in the API as opposed to keeping up with the generes.

For example, being able to select all tracks that have "rap" in the genre via .rap.
