The "best way" is the one that gives you the result wanted.  
If you are happy with  
`1-01 ~ UnPlug ~ Time Unlimited (Ortus Airgap mix)`  
then it is the best way for you. 😉

If you show us a filename which does not work as expected, we can help you find the reason. It could also be a missing DISCNUMBER. Just show us a [screenshot](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/hints-for-asking-support-requests/56190#use-screenshots-to-exemplify-the-issue-2) after pressing Alt+T on such a "not working" song.
