MusicBrainz is a community music metadatabase
that attempts to create a comprehensive music information site.
You can use the MusicBrainz data either by browsing this web site,
or you can access the data from a client program — for example,
a CD player program can use MusicBrainz to identify CDs and provide
information about the CD, about the artist or about related
information. You can also use the MusicBrainz Tagger
to automatically identify and clean up the metadata tags
in your digital music collections. Find out more in the
introduction.
You can use Musicbrainz right now to automatically identify and
label your music files — all you have to do is download and run
a MusicBrainz enabled tagger.
Read more about our taggers.
Alternatively, you might just want to
search
or
browse
the MusicBrainz database.
If you spot a mistake, or something that is missing,
you can even
edit or add more data!
If you're new to MusicBrainz, please take a moment to read the
beginners guide
before editing the database.
If you are a software developer you might want to learn about the
MusicBrainz client library / SDK.
You can use the library to enable your programs to access the
MusicBrainz database, both for looking up data and also for
submitting new data.
Many people are needed to make MusicBrainz work. Come and take part!
