        Hi everyone, i want to add the "cover" attribute to a recording, but i am stuck at the point that i can't apply between two different recordings, what i am doing wrong and how to make it better? http://musicbrainz.org/relationship/a3005666-a872…
      • 2015-03-03 06258, 2015

      • kuno
        latsni: the cover attribute is between a recording and a work
      • 2015-03-03 06228, 2015

      • latsni
        kuno: i need to add a work first?
      • 2015-03-03 06231, 2015

      • kuno
        yes
      • 2015-03-03 06245, 2015

      • kuno
        and both recordings will be linked to that work with the performance relationship you just linked, but only one of them will have the "cover" attribute checked on that relationship.

        Would a more experienced editor than I mind doing a sanity check on a couple open edits I have? It was a remixed song and I want to make sure I classified it under the right artist
      • 2015-03-03 06245, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        just link it, people here read backlog

        Basically everything pertaining to this release: http://musicbrainz.org/release/05a6302b-f1f4-4288…

        Heh
      • 2015-03-03 06229, 2015

      • reosarevok
        These "unofficial" (assuming it is) remixes are always kinda tricky
      • 2015-03-03 06238, 2015

      • reosarevok
        In theory, the release artist should also be the original artist
      • 2015-03-03 06254, 2015

      • reosarevok
        But it's true that it looks kinda weird to add stuff like this to their discography
      • 2015-03-03 06219, 2015

      • murphycr
        should I not add it to the database? >_<
      • 2015-03-03 06236, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        nonono, moar data
      • 2015-03-03 06240, 2015

      • reosarevok
        No, no, it should definitely be added
      • 2015-03-03 06245, 2015

      • reosarevok
        I just don't know what's the "right" way :)
      • 2015-03-03 06255, 2015

      • murphycr
        So thats also an interesting question: it's an 'official' release by a remixer, but not 'official' for the original artist; what should I put as the release status for the remix?
      • 2015-03-03 06206, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        hmm, there is a "remix" release group type
      • 2015-03-03 06233, 2015

      • reosarevok
        That's also something I don't really know :) (and given I'm supposed to be the one deciding it, that probably means it's unclear...)
      • 2015-03-03 06200, 2015

      • murphycr
        I would see my open edit on the london grammar discography even though it hasn't been applied, right?
      • 2015-03-03 06210, 2015

      • reosarevok
        We really should have a discussion about how to deal with this kind of stuff. I'll add a style ticket
      • 2015-03-03 06236, 2015

      • Freso
        Sometimes I add single-track remixes as a releases, and put the remixer as the release artist.
      • 2015-03-03 06202, 2015

      • Freso
        But not always. Depends on circumstances.
      • 2015-03-03 06220, 2015

      • murphycr
        I think that's what I did; release artist was the remixer, track artist was the original artist
      • 2015-03-03 06240, 2015

      • murphycr
        with a relationship to the release artist from the track
      • 2015-03-03 06226, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        oh, I also need to merge that song with "Carl Sagan" as artist
      • 2015-03-03 06239, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        but I suppose that's kinda the same situation
      • 2015-03-03 06231, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        someone sampled Sagan for a song
      • 2015-03-03 06216, 2015

      • murphycr
        @Leo_Verto there's a "contains samples by" relationship :D
      • 2015-03-03 06215, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        yeah, there's a correct recording for it
      • 2015-03-03 06221, 2015

      • Leo_Verto
        although of a slightly different length

        @reosarevok FWIW, if you think about it, the artist 'releasing' the album in this case is the remixer, even though the primary artist on the recording is the original artist
      • 2015-03-03 06232, 2015

      • reosarevok
        Yeah, it makes a fair amount of sense
      • 2015-03-03 06246, 2015

      • reosarevok
        We just don't have a clear consensus or decision on how to do it so far :)
      • 2015-03-03 06231, 2015

      • murphycr
        is it worth a comment on the ticket?
