Finally got OAuth setup properly! I have to fix some UI-related problems but I'll do that tomorrow.

Big nerd news: Harmony, a streaming site release aggregator/importer for #MusicBrainz (https://harmony.pulsewidth.org.uk/) quietly dropped shortcuts to seed recording (individual songs) relationships with their specific streaming URL pages.
Recording relationships have gone off the charts - literally.
This huge increase in track-specific data may also open doors for @ListenBrainz matching, and for others who use our datasets. -a
It's a bit funny that the reason I'm working on a plugin for MusicBee and coding it in Windows/Visual Studio, is so my workflow of transferring music metadata to MusicBrainz can be done on Linux lol.
For you music library folks, how is something being "higher quality" determined exactly?
I sure hope it's not purely looking at file size or codec/bitrate.
One other huge factor I consider is how the song is mastered/mixed.
Can it compare the waveform and spectrogram of a track and see if it has been loudness-warred / peaked-out / dynamic range crushed?
Can it show that stuff to you or does it do that or does it not do ANY of that?
I published a new release for my #MusicBrainz API bindings for #GoLang .
musicbrainzws2 v0.10.0 is now available. See https://git.sr.ht/~phw/go-musicbrainzws2/refs/v0.10.0 for the changes.
I haven't been announcing this much yet, but I run a #MusicBrainz proxy on the #SmallWeb via #geminiprotocol. You can search the MusicBrainz database on gemini://musicbrainz.uploadedlobster.com
The source code for this #gemini server is available on https://git.sr.ht/~phw/musicbrainz-gemini
It's generally working. There are tons of things to improve to make more data available in a better way, though. I work on it from time to time if I feel like it. But happy to accept patches :)
and it's done! feel free to check it out at https://github.com/provokateurin/musicbrainz-rss-generator
it got slightly more complicated due to sorting by release date and adding pagination to get all release groups, but in the end it's still not big at all!
i already automated the other parts, so the feed it is now automatically generated once a day for all artists in my #jellyfin instance :)
#musicbrainz #php library updated fork now being used in #ampache
Hopefully I can make it a lot easier to use in your own PHP projects.
I've just added "The Alchemist’s Euphoria" by #Kasabian (12'', 2022) on Sony/Columbia to the @metabrainz database.

I've just added "Totally Wired Nine" by Various Artists (12'', 1992) on Acid Jazz Records to the @metabrainz database.

Update on the scripts for sorting huge amounts of music downloaded from the Internet Archive: I added a plugin for MusicBrainz Picard (a metadata/tag editor / music lookup tool) to load metadata from the Internet Archive's meta.xml files before doing the lookup. This makes it much more likely to be able to find a match:

Mmmh, I just wish there was a working @ListenBrainz integration
Update: thanks to @eg’s tips, I configured rescrobbled, and #ListenBrainz scrobbling is working great!
If you are posting new material on #Bandcamp for #BandcampFriday don't forget about #Harmony -- a tool you can use to import the release from BC into #MusicBrainz for documenting and distributing the metadata to a zillion other places.
some #castlevania soundtrack cds i owned are not listed on #musicbrainz.
i want to add them but idk how.
Encore 5 heures, aaaaaaa
I "scrobble" all my music listens to https://listenbrainz.org/. Here are my listening stats for February
