Select multiple artists

I use this application to include vinyls.
I have vinyls where several artists are on it
for example this record:
http://www.discogs.com/lenny-dee-tieum-microtronic-ep/release/553923

there are both artists individually in the database.
in your database it is seen as one.
with the selection of a second artist does not work.
it is only the first regarded artists.

you can do something so that you can select multiple artists?

and please don´t forget my last question, that your application use automatically the artist information from discogs.

    I would love to see something like this as well. I posted this request quite a while back in a suggestions topic to support multiple artists. I have a lot of albums like this, for example, Queen and David Bowie. This happens a lot on collaboration style albums. Willie Nelson has about a dozen of these style of albums.

    It would be nice if it treated it as 2 separate artists, "Queen" and "David Bowie" instead of a 1 artist called "Queen and David Bowie". That way instead of creating this new combo artist, the album would show up under both the Queen listing as well as the David Bowie listing.

    As mentioned above, a lot of sites already either do this or are moving this direction. It would be awesome if MC supported this.

    that's nice to hear. :woohoo:
    I had an idea if it would not go.
    You can make a selection field in the subartist field as artist field.
    was only an idea.

    Has the multiple artist feature been added now? I have a requirement on a site where all albums are multiple artist type. If it were just possible to support the selection in Subartist field like Psychopath says, it would be enough. I see a subartist option is there but is it possible to assign a particular song to artist A and B when it is a duet? Will that song come in searches for artists A and B?
    Germi, your message is nearly a year old. Is the feature available now? or a work around available?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    no, I'm afraid this wasn't added to the last release. we considered it but there were other priorities and finally we decided not to go with the multi artist option (at least not at that time)

    but if you want to discuss this further please feel free to contact me directly at joomlamusicsolutions@gmail.com
