!recall oh no.

Hi! I fixed the name of a release group ( https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/548212d0-... ). Do I need to fix the title of the according release as well? If yes, in the edit mask the name of the release group is still the old one (I assume because my edit of the group is pending). Do I have to change it there as well? or should I rather wait until the release group edit is

approved, before continuing?

Hi 👋

You can change the release as well, and link the release group edit in the edit note of the release edit

^^ when necessary to update release and release group title at the same time, it's more efficient to do so on the release first, cuz it gives u the additional option "update release group name" which will create both edits at once when you're done \:)

zoedivision[m]: thanks, good to know :) So I have to wait now for the edit on the release group to go through before I edit the release?

Nah, go ahead

https://www.qobuz.com/us-en/album/bubbles-hoyof... says the label is HoYoFair, do I add one or is this some sorta self published label i have to use "no label" on?

looks like a self release to me

[no label] is correct

Usually the label of hoyo stuff is Hoyomix. Let me check

Nvm, the usual label is mihoyo

There's a Spotify release, but Spotify on mobile is just impossible to see the release, so I can't put it in harmony yet. I'll see tonight

I've been working on importing an Japanese Roxy Music tribute compilation, and it's been vexing since half of them are pretty obscure-ish performers

and I'm stuck now on this one band that appears to have had a few releases and one-offs. They're called 'After Me', and MB currently has precisely one entry for a band called that, but the catch is, it's a track on a *South African* compilation, and I just cannot tell with certainty if it's the same group or not, cuz the info available for *compilation* is so sparse

and basically I'm not sure whether it's better to link with the existing entry, with the possibility of splitting them later if necessary; or vice-versa, create new now with possibility of merging later.

Nah..... based on the years, I think they've gotta be different groups lol

Merging is always easier than splitting, so when in doubt I normally go with seperating

how do you check it on spotify? i put this link https://open.spotify.com/track/5D0yKU0GkO4a8iJi... in harmony and just got a "could not extract entity error" rustynova[m]

i did check Apple Music and it has a "℗ 2024 HoYoFair" but no label on Harmony

i used yambs to do the qobuz link which grabbed HoYoFair as the label
