Distinction between Albums and Playlists

This isn't a super huge deal to me, but if anyone here is anything like me, you probably have a playlist or two of cool audiotool music made by other people.
And then there might be even less of you who made it through writer's block and made yourself some albums and EPs of your own.

Currently, they are all sorted into the Albums tab of our profiles, and there isn't anything inherently wrong with that. However, some people (myself included) might want to be able to separate the playlists from our albums to organize them better, and reduce clutter in the albums tab (and of course, be able to choose what they are when we create them).

Again, this is a smaller request that can wait, but I think it's worth mentioning.

An example might be:

I would consider https://www.audiotool.com/album/6WiIAuThR to be a playlist. It's got a lot of music made by an assortment of audiotool artists.

And I would consider https://www.audiotool.com/album/7gecDT to be an album or EP (which could be categorized under albums, and labelled as the artist desired). It's a collection of music that I made to be together.
