Release Sonar

Welcome to Release Sonar

Hi, I am Echo

Release Sonar tells you when the artists in your music collection put out something new. No account, no sign-up: everything stays in your browser.

About the data: MusicBrainz

All release information in Release Sonar comes from MusicBrainz, an open music encyclopedia run by the non-profit MetaBrainz Foundation and edited by volunteers. Its core data is in the public domain (CC0). Covers come from the Cover Art Archive, a joint project with the Internet Archive.

How Release Sonar uses it

  • It searches artists by name and loads their discographies (release groups: albums, EPs, singles…).
  • To find new releases it asks for releases of up to 30 artists at a time, dated in the last 60 days or later.
  • It never sends more than one request per second, and caches answers in your browser to avoid asking twice.

Make it better

If an artist or album is missing or wrong, you can contribute to MusicBrainz; every fix helps every app that uses it. If Release Sonar is useful to you, consider donating to the MetaBrainz Foundation.
