CatCat doesn't really think that setting no artist type releases to the studio(s) that recorded it? especially such a greatly prolificated studio as the bbc

sounts as a "spa" but a real artist thing
2011-03-30 08918, 2011
CatCat OT: CatCat is amused that the Google translate translates "herpa" with "herpes"
2011-03-30 08934, 2011

and how will we ever make freedb redundant if we only ever return track titles for things with music? :D

"(All of this section should be removed once all merges, with retained AC, have taken place after the NGS release occurs.)"
I would have imagined that it would be kept there, even if only to let people know which artist credits for [unknown] to use…
2011-03-30 08906, 2011
nikki
but personally I think it should be voidified or whatever, it was too long ago and most people had no idea how ngs even worked (most people still don't have any idea)
2011-03-30 08947, 2011
nikki
the whole traditional merge was a horrible mess, and I don't want to see the same thing happen for any of those, just because nobody objected more than a year before
2011-03-30 08956, 2011
W3ird_N3rd
in any case, setting "[no artist]" for anything would make no sense to me

somebody made it, recorded it, whatever. "[artist unknown]" might be needed in some cases, no artist makes no sense imho

Well, "Miserable Tom Cat Outside In The Rain" doesn't sound much happier
2011-03-30 08936, 2011
W3ird_N3rd
agree, but did they really step on a cat's tail just to record the agony?
2011-03-30 08900, 2011
reosarevok
Nah, I guess they got full of cat hair
2011-03-30 08906, 2011

And then they had the idea for the recording

I do believe that sound effects are often made with completely different things than they are supposed ot sound like
imo if it's a tribute album the artist is usualy on the cover.. doesn't mean its x artist's release
2011-03-30 08959, 2011
nikki
do you not have any covers?
2011-03-30 08906, 2011

that's where I'd look in a record store :P

covers = album art?

uh, in record stores her, tribute albums are usually in the "va" "genre type section
2011-03-30 08915, 2011
nikki
yes, album art
2011-03-30 08920, 2011

which is why the eluded me for so long

2011-03-30 08954, 2011

in the librar, the tribute albums are also under va/the artist(s) that recorded it
2011-03-30 08915, 2011
nikki
I would put that under va

All tribute albums I've seen were under VA

under the artist is not where'd I'd sort it or expect to find it

I've been coming up short trying to explain my feelings. warp, have anything to say on the matter?

stats >_<
2011-03-30 08934, 2011
nikki
warp's opinion is normally just "va sucks, avoid it at all costs" :P
2011-03-30 08908, 2011
CatCat
that has to do with how va is on mb, not how the realease really is
2011-03-30 08925, 2011
VxJasonxV
Frankly, that's not a bad stance, since no one knows how to use VA. I hate getting albums where everything is "VA".
2011-03-30 08934, 2011
VxJasonxV
I guess the data, and how it's used (read: tagged) are two entirely different things though.
2011-03-30 08937, 2011
CatCat has done combinatorics (who), hypergeometric? probablity (easy)
2011-03-30 08915, 2011
CatCat
i miss the days of simple algebra though
2011-03-30 08938, 2011
CatCat
though it was fun to learn about vectors
2011-03-30 08956, 2011

I liked vectors
2011-03-30 08910, 2011
CatCat
yea!
2011-03-30 08920, 2011
nikki
the only thing I hated more than stats was integrating though
2011-03-30 08935, 2011
CatCat
it's not stats, it's probability
2011-03-30 08945, 2011
nikki
probability always came under stats for us
2011-03-30 08900, 2011
CatCat
and integrating, that's the opposite of derivartion isn't it?
2011-03-30 08913, 2011
nikki
maybe?
2011-03-30 08922, 2011
CatCat
oh, we don't have stats her in t math, i think the p mat guys have it though
2011-03-30 08929, 2011
nikki
all I remember is that the opposite of integrating isn't disintegrating, although it would be funnier than way
2011-03-30 08931, 2011

integrating was fine at first, then it got complicated and I have no idea how I passed (sheer luck? by doing really well on all the other questions? by taking the exam three times? who knows)
2011-03-30 08942, 2011

derivation.. it's easy, but doign it by the prooff, that was hard.. the teacher said to me that *I* was probably the only one who actually got it XD
