.SH "QUEUE MODES"
.PP
mpd\-sima offers different queue modes\&. All of them pick up tracks from artists similar to the last track in the queue\&.
A solution is for you to set AlbumArtists tag to something different than the actual artist of the track\&. For compilations, OSTs etc\&. a strong convention is to use "Various Artists" for this tag\&.
.sp
mpd\-sima is currently looking for AlbumArtists tags and avoid album where this tag is set with "Various Artists"\&. If a single track within an album is found with AlbumArtists:"Various Artists" the complete album is skipped and won\*(Aqt be queued\&.
