### Artist
An [artist ](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Artist ) is generally a
musician, group of musicians, or other music professional (like a producer or
engineer). Occasionally, it can also be a non-musical person (like a
photographer, an illustrator, or a poet whose writings are set to music), or
even a fictional character.

### Recording
A [recording ](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Recording ) is an
entity in MusicBrainz which can be linked to tracks on releases. Each track must
always be associated with a single recording, but a recording can be linked to
any number of tracks.
A recording represents distinct audio that has been used to produce at least one
released track through copying or mastering. A recording itself is never
produced solely through copying or mastering.
Generally, the audio represented by a recording corresponds to the audio at a
stage in the production process before any final mastering but after any editing
or mixing.

### ReleaseGroup
A [release group ](https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Release_Group ) is
used to group several different releases into a single logical entity. Every
release belongs to one, and only one release group.

important difference: a release is something you can buy as media such as a CD
or a vinyl record, while a release group embraces the overall concept of an
album – ’

### ReleaseGroupType
2016-11-30 02:18:50 +00:00
A type used to describe release groups, e.g. album, single, EP,
etc.

2016-11-29 03:14:43 +00:00
< td > An album, perhaps better defined as a “Long Play” (LP)
release, generally consists of previously unreleased material (unless this type
is combined with secondary types which change that, such as “Compilation”). This
includes album re-issues, with or without bonus tracks.< / td >

2016-11-29 03:14:43 +00:00
< td > A single typically has one main song and possibly a handful
of additional tracks or remixes of the main track. A single is usually named
after its main song.< / td >

2016-11-29 03:14:43 +00:00
< td > An EP is a so-called “Extended Play” release and often
contains the letters EP in the title. Generally an EP will be shorter than a
full length release (an LP or “Long Play”) and the tracks are usually exclusive
to the EP, in other words the tracks don’
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.< / td >

after the other, each one modified so that they blend together into a continuous
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)
credited in a fairly prominent way.< / td >

2016-11-29 03:14:43 +00:00
< td > 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’ & hip
hop genres. They are often not sanctioned by the artist’
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’
demos in that they are designed for release directly to the public and fans, not
to labels.< / td >
