Contributing to AcousticBrainz

In order to contribute acoustic data to AcousticBrainz, you will need to have a music collection that contains MusicBrainz IDs. This usually means that your collection will need to have been tagged with a MusicBrainz aware tagger like Picard or other MusicBrainz enabled taggers. If you have a collection of lossless FLAC files that would be ideal, but having lossy also helps the project. Our tools support the following file extensions: mp3 ogg oga flac mp4 m4a m4r m4b m4p aac wma asf mpc wv spx tta 3g2 aif aiff ape
