A Better Method for discovering accurate Mood, Genre, Danceability, and Popularity

Having used Beatunes for some time now for creating better playlists and discovering old music in my large collection, I have been finding the "Estimate Mood" and "Estimate Danceability" function during the analyses process to be lacking and wildly inaccurate. Instead, I have been relying on external websites like Chosic's "Music Genre Finder" page to accurately adjust the mood, genre, etc of my tracks. Because I do this manually, it is a time intensive process that I still believe pays off for me in the end as I do DJ professionally for different audiences.

Could it possible you could pull the mood, genre, etc meta data like Chosic does? They don't explain how they aggregate their data but I have a sneaking suspicion they use the Spotify API features to do so.

Another website similar to Chosic is Musictax. Like Chosic, they don't say exactly how they pull their information but do offer hints linking back to Spotify.

To emphasize in closing, I would like to see a feature in Beatunes that could auto complete the mood, energy, popularity, etc much like how these websites accomplish it.

Thank you.
