Quick question guys and gals

http://musicbrainz.org/release/25159251-55c5-4b... and http://musicbrainz.org/release/4f8dd27f-4bf0-48...

track 15, I have a big problem with the artist + feat.

on the OST / in the game / etc. the "artists" of that song are all laid out as one big artist, seperated by commas

in the end, all it really is, is one guy with a synthesized keyboard playing notes in different animal type noises

soo.. who his he?

it should be constributed to him

why? it's not attributed to him on the OST

and to answer the question, I have NO idea who the actual artist is :P

then you're stuck with this cumbersoem 'performance name'

my complaint isn't the cumbersome performance name

because actualr people doing n the thing should be credited

my complaint is how the editors laid it out

but we can't control how the releses are laid out!

Here's my question really:

Is there any reason why I should slam all those "artist names" into the artist field

it's not just one artist feat. the rest

yes: its ugly and stupid and not a real artist

it's uglier being split up between the artist and title...

not really

IMO

it can wait until the database can handle it better .. IMO

Isn't AR used to denote the actual artist without actually tainting the metadata?

ha 'taintign the metadata'

using the actual artist's name instead of the performance name is a very bad thing IMO

and again, that's where AR comes in

well you can fix that at the user part, we haveto think of hat works for musicbrainz

I'm still confused though. I don't see what problem is 'fixed' by putting the rest of the artists into the 'feat.' in the track title...

that is, in this exact issue

it isn't

I perfectly understand it outside of this release

the problem is that its equaly as wrong either way

why?

I just tol doy, look I have to go now, sorry

by

bye

:)

Hmmm

I have no idea what's wrong, I borrowed my mum's laptop, installed the usb thing they sent and it says that the server doesn't respond to the user/password auth request

I *was* blaming the router, but I can't even connect from windows now, so it's back on dial up for me :(

Like on your comp in the last.fm office.

and now you're deleting the myspace people?

What should I do if someone keeps changing certain letters on all of the track in an album to lowercase when I've provided proof that certain letters in the tracks are supposed to be uppercase?

what language is it?

The original album is in Japanese, but there's sufficient proof that the tracks aren't supposed to be all lowercase.
