You might experiment with that, keeping in mind that you're customizing your tracks to fit MPD's Procrustean Bed. [Note that the table does not list a Performer type.] I just now tried this on a test track using Kid3 on my Linux laptop. After I updated the moOde folder the value I gave for "Remixer" now shows up in mpc list performer. I don't see it in the Playback panel when I play the track but I don't have time ATM to figure out why.

Thanks Kent..
Your point about "customizing your tracks to fit MPD's Procrustean Bed" is well made... but what choice do we have ?
If we want performer to show up in moOde or via /engine-mpd.php -> json we need to encode our tracks to fit...
So frustrating.
BTW: I was able to mirror your test using "Remixer" via Kid3 and get it to display in moOde.
ps. I also had a look at the MPD source and notice that they recently added support for the new tag: "Mood". Perhaps they are not as intractable as i've read.
