MusicBrainz is an open music encyclopedia that collects music metadata and makes it available to the public.

MusicBrainz aims to be:

The ultimate source of music information by allowing anyone to contribute and releasing the data under open licenses.
The universal lingua franca for music by providing a reliable and unambiguous form of music identification, enabling both people and machines to have meaningful conversations about music.

@sandeep-tech we could use this to build our search feature.

This API is free and open source. Would save development costs to use this under the hood instead of proprietary APIs provided by Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube etc.

1. Yes this could be out single source of truth for each piece of music.
2. I thought we wanted to direct user to an app (spotify, yt music, soundcloud) when they click on a track. (we will have to search on these platforms to be able to do this, no?
3. do they have soundcloud music? (as it is niche in a way)
