Audio Tags

These are the tags that audio files have

Every audio file is tagged this way with the default and custom tags. This ensures a nice base layer of discoverability. Every audio file gets these tags, whether they are uploaded with the audio uploader or in a bundle with the metadata maker.

Default Tags

Every audio file uploaded with The Contract Wizard has these tags added to them:

App-Name:Contract-Wizard

Audio-Version: 0.3

IPFS-CID:(ipfs content id)

Uploaded-Type:Audio

Uploaded-By:(wallet that uploaded)

Custom Tags

Right now there are 5 audio tags written by the user:

Title:(title)

Artist:(artist)

Genre:(genre)

ISRC:(isrc code)

Audio-Tag:(audio tag)

There's only ever one Title, Artist, Genre, and ISRC tag, but there can be multiple Audio-Tag tags.

Here is an example of a published audio file.

Query Audio Data

You can query different tags directly at ar://listen with the Arweave Explorer page.

You can also do a query on other sites and see what happens when you search App-Name: Contract-Wizard, or Uploaded-Type: Audio, or any of the other tags.
