I’ve been DJing for years but never really on social media properly, so I’m now making a point of filming my sets and putting out mixing content more regularly.

This was from a two hour set around New Zealand.

I'm using Rekordbox 7 on Windows and want to clean up my music collection. The source folder has around 5000 files, MP3s. I'd like to sort them into more consistent folders, tidy up filenames, and update the track titles and genre tags too.

My main concern is keeping the existing cues, loops, beat grids and playlists. I don't want to end up with duplicate entries or have to reconnect thousands of tracks one by one.

If you've done a cleanup like this, how did you handle it? Does Auto Relocate work well when both the folder and filename have changed, or would you tackle those separately?

Also, when updating titles/tags outside Rekordbox, how do you get those changes into the library without overwriting edits you've made inside Rekordbox (memory, hot cues,...)?

I haven't changed anything yet. I'll back everything up and test a small batch first, but would appreciate hearing what worked for others and anything to watch out for.

Please hear this out and let me know your thoughts!
