When I play some music I want at least to choose the style/genre.
hmm that's a bit trickier... I usually sit by the 'next' button or insert a particular album into the playlist. Not pretty with a phone client though.
How do you do it with mpd?
Amarok's 'dynamic playlists' can be configured on genre (requires correctly tagged files) or will use echonest or last.fm to pick similar tracks. Maybe the phone client lets you select a preconfigured playlist.
Or separate instances each looking at a different folder structure, don't know of a friendly way to choose instance from a phone though, unless mpd clients have a server discovery list feature.
