Hello folks, I’d like some advice.
I was wondering, how, if at all, would I tag a recording that’s never been released anywhere and barely has an artist associated to it?
So this is the song I’m referring to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzWjpSHuzm0
To make it short, this recording has been floating around Russian cyberspace for years now, there’s some vague references to the original artist going by “Afghanistan” (АВГАНИСТАН) but even that is dubious at best and there’s 0 info on who that person is, when this was recorded, etc. I was thinking I could upload it as a standalone recording under the [unknown]
artist, but that seems really thin.
So I was wondering, would this recording even qualify to be on Musicbrainz at all? Would this be a appropriate time to make a standalone recording without any release associated? Should I put АВГАНИСТАН as the artist even though it’s extremely unclear whether or not that actually is an artist that exists, or whether or not they produced this song?
For the record, the artist is credited as “Afghanistan” on both a lyrics site and a site which has the chords for this version, but both could be based on a wrong source.
