CDJ has a powerful, query based method which allows you to find music in your collection which meets the criteria you specify. Using the Search window tab, you can enter a query in the query box and see the matches to your query in the search results list shown below it. These results can then be drag and dropped into the playlist, played immediately, and generally be manipulated in the same way entries in the library window can be. Search list results also form the set of items from which shuffle play music is choosen. If you have no results from your search, shuffle play will choose music randomly from the main library.
By clicking on the disc / track button, you can opt to search for individual tracks which match your query, or just discs which contain those matching tracks.
