You want Beets.[1] Anything you could possibly want is doable with the smart playlist feature[2] and the redonkulous power of the queries and metadata (chromaprint/musicbrainz/echonest). There is a plugin for last.fm genres but I have not used it. I am not sure how you got similarities from last.fm but you can definitely use the echonest data to find similar music. There was a good discussion of beets here not so long ago.

- soggypopsicle 13y agoI wrote the play plugin for beets last weekend that turns a query into a temporary playlist and opens it with your systems music player for just this reason. https://github.com/davidhampgonsalves/beets-plugin-play https://github.com/davidhampgonsalves/beets-plugin-play https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/blob/master/beetsplug/play.py https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/blob/master/beetsplug/play....
