While using Mixcloud, a popular online platform for music, radio, and DJ mixes, I encountered a difficulty in discovering different international music genres. Although the platform offers a diverse selection of cross-genre music, it seems to be a challenge to identify and discover specific international music genres. This complicates diving into new musical genres, as well as expanding one's own musical horizons. It also affects how I find new favorite artists and create new, interesting playlists. Therefore, a central problem is the difficulty of effectively discovering and exploring international music genres on Mixcloud.

Mixcloud has implemented a solution to this issue by introducing an advanced search feature that allows users to search specifically for international music genres. By entering the desired genre into the search bar, numerous relevant results are displayed, pointing to various playlists, artists, and songs from the searched genre. Additionally, users can enter countries or regional styles to discover music beyond their regular selection. This feature promotes immersion in new music genres and facilitates the discovery of new favorite artists. It also allows users to create and personalize their own playlists. Therefore, Mixcloud's advanced search significantly contributes to improving the user experience by streamlining and simplifying the musical discovery journey.
