Ideally: How do I access the old pell and sample browsers?

Sufficient: How do I search (by title, artist, and tag) pells and samples in the beta version the site is now pushing? (Which I really find borderline unusable compared to the old versions. It looks pretty but it’s a bear to navigate and amounts to blind browsing, which is time consuming and extremely frustrating to the point that I’m looking at other options to itch my remix scratch and I love ccMixter. It obviously has a nice backend, the player works wonderfully, and the design is lovely. But the UI is just… not good, I’m sorry to say. :( It’s just not functional for me right now as a mixer. I want to make my sporadic contributions, but it’s being made difficult for me right now.)

On usability notes:
Why do I have to click through an artist’s name and then on the sample from that page to get to the sample page in the sample browser? That should be a direct link from the name in the listings. (Even better if somehow the description and tags could be listed in the browser, but a direct link to the sample page would work.)

Why are tags not clickable like in the old version/mainsite listings? That really undercuts usability.

There were a few other things I ran into as well, but that’s what is sticking out in mind right now. The frustration was really killing the fun for me.

Sort of solution. I just remembered an old hack/workaround. It is still functional.
