it's the accepted way to enter stuff as far as I know... it makes the most sense to me

For "(vocal version feat. Ane Trolle)", the track version should be split from the feat right?

It's the radio edit of the Trentemøller remix. There's no such thing as "Trentemøller remix radio".
2009-03-07 06615, 2009
mikemorr
(I think)
2009-03-07 06640, 2009
navap
hm? It never was "Trentemøller remix radio", it had the "edit" at the end to start with.
2009-03-07 06609, 2009
mikemorr
Right, that's what I mean :) It's not an "edit" of "Trentemøller remix radio". :P
2009-03-07 06648, 2009

I was deliberately misparsing it. I agree with luks and nikkeee.

2009-03-07 06603, 2009

Oh you mean, if it was just (edit) at the end, yes then it would make even less sense than it did to begin with :p
2009-03-07 06620, 2009
mikemorr
The vocal version one I'm not as sure about, though. If there is no vocal version unless Ane Trolle is there, I might leave it as is.
2009-03-07 06642, 2009
mikemorr
Which I would guess is probably the case.
2009-03-07 06629, 2009
navap
Well thats when the order of the info comes in. If the original track has her, then the feat would go before the remix info. If she is there just because of the feat, she would go after the remix.
2009-03-07 06643, 2009
mikemorr
OK, right, as long as the order is correct, I guess it doesn't matter very much whether they are in one set of parens or two separate ones.
All the examples there are separated, so I guess it's more clear-cut than I thought: Separate the feat. :)

Bram van Kampen performs as Bram VanK, does that count as a ficticious name?
2009-03-07 06648, 2009
mikemorr
For sortname purposes, I'd say yes. I'd sort "Bram VanK" under "B". (Not "VanK, Bram".)
2009-03-07 06653, 2009
navap
But you would mark the artist as a Person though correct?
2009-03-07 06609, 2009
navap
The performance name
2009-03-07 06656, 2009
mikemorr
I've been meaning to ask the list about that, actually. There was talk about creating a third category "Project" for artists who are neither a person nor a group. This one definitely looks like a person to me.
I'd say, keep it simple and mark all the ones I listed as Persons, rather than creating more categories. If it's one inseparable identity, call it a Person, regardless of whether it's a human or not. Anything else is a Group.

I agree, maybe "Person" should be called "Individual" instead?
2009-03-07 06633, 2009

That would work for me.

Give it a slightly less humanoid definition.

What might "(Client)" in an artist comment refer to?

mikemorr: I've always thought we should split "Group" into "Group" and "Collaboration" - the latter being our workaround artists

drsaunde: "UK artist Kate Holmes (Client)" ring a bell?
hey voiceinsideyou and nikki (and whoever else is interested), we finally figured out in ##javascript how to address a range of unicode plane 1-16 chars - \uD801\uDC00-\uDC4F
2009-03-07 06611, 2009
brianfreud
instead of \uD801\uDC00-\uD801\uDC4F ... seems obvious once we figured it out :P
'The Best of Alexis Korner and Friends' is really a subtitle
2009-03-07 06615, 2009

brianfreud: javascript doesn't support the real unicode codepoints beyond the bmp?
2009-03-07 06641, 2009

whenever is ee "bmp" i think "bitemsrk file"

nikki: not using standard \uXXXX notation - you have to use the surrogate codepoints

but noone had a clue how to do ranges using them, took us a while to figure out

If you don't search for the release name manually but browse the artists page, watch out, you will only see anything marked as an Album, Single, EP, or Compiation.

\uD801\uDC00-\uD801\uDC4F just seems like it *should* be right, not \uD801\uDC00-\uDC4F

maybe to you :P

to me it reads as the codepoints d801, dc4f and the impossible range dc00 to d801
2009-03-07 06605, 2009

Ya...I was goint to say \uDC00-\uD801 doesn't make sense to me

navap, As far as I know, there were only two albums with 'Alexis Korner and Friends' on the cover. It was because the albums were assembled from various performances and studio sessions with different bands
2009-03-07 06616, 2009
navap
Would those two happen to be "The Party Album" and the "Blues Unlimited" one?
2009-03-07 06641, 2009
Munger
Yes. They should be filed under 'Alexis Korner' with ARs listing the performers on each track
Well, I would get someone else's opinion before moving those albums over to Alexis Korner.
2009-03-07 06630, 2009
Munger
I see what you mean, but all I am saying is that was no such band under that name. If you check out the perfomers on The Party Album, you will see a bunch of different names
2009-03-07 06601, 2009
Munger
err... I mean the Blues Unlimited album
2009-03-07 06644, 2009
Munger
Can't remeber them all, but I know that Robert Plant & Sonny Boy Williamson did a song on there
2009-03-07 06602, 2009
navap
The album pretty clearly states the artist as "Alexis Komer and Friends".
2009-03-07 06611, 2009
Munger
That's the subtitle. For most of the tracks the band was 'Blues Incorporated'
