        Is there a mapping file for MBID to Spotify URI? I am asking this because my I am linking my Spotify to use LB

        vintagegold: what does "mapping file" mean in your question?
      • 2020-11-23 32841, 2020

      • vintagegold
        A file where a MBID is a key and the Spotify URI is a value

        how would you define/tag a "Bonus Tracks" release by an artist? My example is this: https://deerleap.bandcamp.com/album/impermanence-… two bonus tracks from the previous album released for "pay-what-you-want" (for a charity) on their bandcamp. It was recently added as "Album" with the bandcamp title "$Album_name B-Sides" which I feel is not really that accurate:

      • darwin
        vintagegold: that's not usually how such things work? there's not "files" like that for other things?

      • darwin
        like, to the extent that spotify URIs are exposed for MBIDs, they're exposed via the same API that exposes all other information?

        darwin Ahh I think I it got. So the returned "artist_msid" by LB's api is the same as a MBID?
      • 2020-11-23 32832, 2020

      • vintagegold
        darwin I found the spotify link in LB's response, thank you for that info/hint

        pbnoxious I would go with EP. For Tame Impala's Currents Bsides and remixes it labeled as an EP https://musicbrainz.org/artist/63aa26c3-d59b-4da4…

      • pbnoxious
        but the style guide for releases says explicitely that EP should be used only if the artist labels the release as an EP
      • 2020-11-23 32802, 2020

      • pbnoxious
        and for Single, I think that is even further off… In practice what it is, is an "extension" of the previous record, i.e. before the "digital release" age, you'd see these tracks on some special version of the album
      • 2020-11-23 32843, 2020

      • pbnoxious
        (which is of course not how you should enter them into MB now, but I feel that makes it hard to adequately put them into the scheme)

        Hi there! About adding cover art, can it be taken from amazon as it is?
      • 2020-11-23 32809, 2020

      • evelyn
        you need to get the largest size image
      • 2020-11-23 32822, 2020

      • evelyn
        basically delete everything after ._ up to the file extension
      • 2020-11-23 32801, 2020

      • evelyn
      • 2020-11-23 32825, 2020

      • evelyn
        there is also an extension for Firefox called Max Image URL which has rules for various sites that will do it automatically for you
      • 2020-11-23 32812, 2020

      • evelyn
        Do make sure it actually matches the release you have though. E.g. don't put a square image for a digipak CD release
      • 2020-11-23 32837, 2020

      • danyspin97_
        evelyn: thanks for the detailed explanation
      • 2020-11-23 32807, 2020

      • danyspin97_
        what if amazon uses a square image for a digipack?
      • 2020-11-23 32847, 2020

      • evelyn
        then they are wrong, or the digipak is sort of square (but most digipak CDs are sort of rectangular)
      • 2020-11-23 32829, 2020

      • danyspin97_
        I see :/
      • 2020-11-23 32831, 2020

      • evelyn
      • 2020-11-23 32837, 2020

      • evelyn
        also the MP3 store almost always has a square image (or just about), but the actual CD entry on a given item (like that image I posted above) sometimes has correct cover art, and sometimes it's really good quality and is uploaded by the label
      • 2020-11-23 32856, 2020

      • danyspin97_
        about about release contry? If the the publisher is from DE but the release is available in all Europe, should it be the latter?
      • 2020-11-23 32845, 2020

      • evelyn
        also with regards to cover art see https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Style/Release
