♫ Episode #4 – Streaming Shenanigans and Metadata

Listen Later

In episode #4 of The Next Track, Doug Adams and Kirk McElhearn welcome special guest Andy Doe, digital music consultant and classical record label head, to discuss some streaming music shenanigans, and audio file metadata, the information that tells you who a track is by, its name, its album, and more.

“This is the kind of mass-production of music that Henry Ford would have appreciated.” Andy Doe.

Show notes:

  • Andy Doe
  • Proper Discord

    • Streaming music shenanigans:

    • Albums are getting unbearably long and sh*tty streaming rules are to blame

      • Metadata:

      • Metametadata: almost everything you read about classical metadata is wrong
      • Dart Music

        • Our next tracks:

        • Doug: Brazil Classics 1: Beleza Tropical
        • Kirk: The Complete In a Silent Way Sessions, Miles Davis
