Placing Pages of Specific Keyword on a Page

I have a wiki here: http://internetedmdatabase.com/

I like to be able to click "Genres" category. Then click say "Breakbeat". On this page is the description of this genre. Under this, I like to display a list of all Artists (which is a category) with this "Genre" listed on their page, here. So basically it shows a list of artists from the breakbeat genre.

I don't have a definitive answer, but let me rephrase your question: As I understand you, you have a category filled with pages and now you want to transclude the category in an artice as if it was a template (with the result that you see the pages inside the category in the article).

I don't know if that works, but maybe this can be done by creating a template, which itself somehow shows the pages in the category. E.g. for the category called "Category:Breakbeast" you would have to put this into the template: {{Category:Breakbeast}}. And then put this template in each article, where you want to have the list of pages.

If you want to do a lot of this sort of thing, you'll want to look at Semantic MediaWiki, but you can begin by adding [[Category:Breakbeat]] to wikitext of any artists that that have that genre. Then on the Category:Breakbeat page, add [[Category:Genre]]. You would do that with any other categories that are subpages of the Genre Category.
