full length release (an LP or “Long Play”) and the tracks are usually exclusive

release. EP is fairly difficult to define; usually it should only be assumed
that a release is an EP if the artist defines it as such.`,

flow of music. A DJ mix release requires that the recordings be modified in some
manner, and the DJ who does this modification is usually (although not always)

      description: `Promotional in nature (but not necessarily free), mixtapes
and street albums are often released by artists to promote new artists, or
upcoming studio albums by prominent artists. They are also sometimes used to
keep fans’ attention between studio releases and are most common in rap & hip
hop genres. They are often not sanctioned by the artist’s label, may lack proper
sample or song clearances and vary widely in production and recording quality.
While mixtapes are generally DJ-mixed, they are distinct from commercial DJ
mixes (which are usually deemed compilations) and are defined by having a
significant proportion of new material, including original production or
original vocals over top of other artists’ instrumentals. They are distinct from
demos in that they are designed for release directly to the public and fans, not
to labels.`,
