I *presume* that's a clear enough marker of artist intent to just go ahead and rename it, or is there another reason why it's titled like that that I'm missing?

(went ahead and made the change in https://musicbrainz.org/edit/108591268 and 108591374 , but still curious about how strong of a signal of intent artist's official bandcamp/etc page is)

i522: Hard to say! Sometimes a label’s house style is all lower-case on Bandcamp, but that isn’t really artist intent. Looking at unlucky wind, titles are all over the place… looks like label house style, though, so ?? The release title is definitely wrong as-is, though—if title case, “in” shouldn’t be capitalized. aerozol, looks like you might have opinions here…

crism: fair enough, always can be reverted if need be, but unusually styled titles aren't exactly uncommon so i'm more inclined to call artist intent. (new editor, but been using the database for a while, and in the past at least I regularly went to tag music from the database and the database has capitalisation/style that disagrees with an

though i presume the rules about fixing up titles apply more when there's more than just the artist dealing with the track listing/title before you get it, where you can't really assume artist intent from that

if it's cinsisten at bandcamp, spotify, youtube then it's more likely it's intent

crism: thanks for the tag, I agree that it looks like artist intent to have it lower case 👍

i522: the mix of cases in the track titles also looks like artist intent

aerozol ah, didn't notice the track titles were autocorrected too. i'll fix that too (annoyingly, can't use a userscript for it because some tracks are just missing from the bandcamp/soundcloud)

yeah, i ended up importing as-is with beets and using `beet list "unlucky wind" --format '$track. $title - $artist ($length)'`, then cleaning up where that changed the artist titles. Just manually verifying that the titles that *do* exist on bandcamp have correct titles now and that i didn't undo an intentional change

nice one i522. The track parser can usually work magic with stuff like that
