An international dub, for the purpose of Lyrxo, is when an album or song is officially dubbed into another language and released. This will mostly happen with either musicals or Disney releases.Naming:Below will cover how we name albums and songs.
Album Naming:
• Follow Apple Music naming on albums.
• Exception: If album is a Disney album and listed as "Various Artists", use "Walt Disney Records" instead as Primary Artist.
Song Naming:
• Follow the Apple Music song naming.
• Disambiguate Cast and Chorus for songs where listed as an artist.
• If primary artist is just Cast or Chorus, disambiguate using native language as the disambiguation.
• If primary artist is multiple primary artists, disambiguate only Cast or Chorus using native language as the disambiguation when listing in Primary Artists credit.
• Note: This will be updated once we have the fix onsite for Multiple Primary Artists.Credits (If available):Some releases will have additional credits that are not on the original release.
• Overdub Mixing Engineer
• Overdubbed At
• Translator
• Lyrics Adaptation
If not on streaming or listed on Discogs, then this information might be found in dub databases.Song Relationships:We want to tie dubbed versions of songs to the original version on site.
• We will currently be using the "Remix" song relationship to do this.Tags:We want to add the appropriate tags to the release.
• The "International Dub" tag should only be added to non-instrumental songs.
• Add any other appropriate tags such as "Disney", "Musicals", "Soundtrack", etc.Q&A:Feel free to add an album Q&A only on the main album that lists the international dubs. --> Example
Transcription Style
We want to use our best judgement for whether to use standard transcription or musicals transcription.
• If you are unsure of which type to use, you can always ask others on site either in the forums or on Discord.
