Description
Summary
Add a "Random Artist" shuffle mode to ensure an equal distribution of artists during playback.
Description
Currently, the shuffle feature is track-based. I would like to propose a new shuffle logic (or a dedicated button) that picks a random artist first, and then plays their tracks.
The automatic logic would follow these steps:
Select an artist at random from the entire library.
Play a random track from that specific artist.
Once the track ends, repeat step 1 by selecting a new random artist.
Use Case
This feature is important for users who have a library with "imbalanced" discographies.
The problem: If Artist A has 100 songs and Artist B has 5 songs, a standard random shuffle will play Artist A twenty times more often than Artist B. This leads to a repetitive experience
