        I'm *really* proud of something right now. I made this edit this weekend https://musicbrainz.org/edit/77503571 , and it just occurred to me last night to reach out to the artist and get his side of the story, and I was exactly correct.

        "Missquerada" was some creation of Sony's, and subsequently entirely abandoned, the song was a creation of Niklas Gustavsson's while he was contracting for Sony Ericcson at the time.

        I guess this is an interesting release, it's a medium cd and it includes a vinyl bonus ep
      • 2021-02-23 05416, 2021

      • CatQuest
        + digital download (probably not considered a bonu/second disc, but what have you)
      • 2021-02-23 05443, 2021

        seems to already be in mb (original vinyl ep atleast) https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/80385511-788… https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/6b165be6-dc0… (though hilariously the vinyl one is te one with the "purchase for dl" link :/ so if anyone want's to maove that and merge the recordings 👍)

      • 2021-02-23 05458, 2021

      • reosarevok
        Also, agreed with chaban that it makes sense to have the main name be whatever they currently use (unless you have a reason to think it's a one off or something)
      • 2021-02-23 05429, 2021

        Speaking of artist intent. What if a name was retroactively changed on digital releases but it's not easily visible (e.g. cover art). IMO historical credit should be kept but every now and then I'm having a hard time arguing: https://musicbrainz.org/edit/77508713

        it's actually easier to enable on the apple phones than the android phones as it's a proper accessibilyt feature
