Drum & Bass Music Category (Official Tag)
Having just had our previous campaign closed, stating that this is now solved by CUSTOM TAGS, this is absolutely not the case.
Twitch has always had music tags such as: Trance, House, Techno, Dubstep and others which sit directly underneath the Main Music Category.
Drum & Bass is equally as large a community on Twitch as any of those categories, and instead of enabling us to unify through a central music category, you state that Custom Tags is enough. It is not. It spreads our community out through all the general misspellings; eg. DNB, Drumandbass, Drumnbass, Jungle, Liquid, Neurofunk, Ragga, Techstep, Oldskool, Liquidfunk and many more.
Please give us an Official Category Tag;
Drum and Bass.
THANK YOU.
Twitch no longer supports "official" tags, but we have created a series of new genre-based collections including one for Drum and Bass. This will aggregate all live music streams in a single, permanent location to bookmark here: https://www.twitch.tv/directory/collection/drum-and-bass-streams.
This not only includes streams with the tags DNB and DRUMANDBASS, but also JUNGLE, LIQUID, NEUROFUNK, RAGGA, TECHSTEP, OLDSKOOL, LIQUIDFUNK, DARKSTEP, FUNKSTEP, ELECTROFUNK, and DRUMNBASS.
In addition, a shelf will also appear in our music directory featuring a selection of live channels when there are enough live music streams using the tag concurrently: https://www.twitch.tv/directory/music

Yes, we need an official category tag for Drum & Bass.

We need one standarised and matching tag. The custom doesn't help align everyone as it can be set in various spelling and formats

An official category tag as unified umbrella would make the custom tags for sub-genres so much more useful!

Custom tags is a step in the right direction, but we strongly urge Twitch to create a dedicated "Drum & Bass" tag that operates in a similar manner to the other official tags on Twitch.

Whilst I love that we now have custom tags, we are still sorely in need of a standardised Drum & Bass tag. There are many variations that we could currently use - dnb, drumandbass, drumnbass, d&b etc.
We will keep this campaign going until we get an official music tag alongside the other electronic genres already included, techno, trance, dubstep etc..

If House, Dubstep, and Trance are already tags, then Drum & Bass deserves to be one too.

Custom tags are not a solution. Please create a specific drum and bass tag as with other genres.

Why is Pole Fitness a thing and DRUM AND BASS IS NOT!?
