Picard takes an album-centric approach to tagging your music, so you can drag in a track, and the app will show you the album it’s from, not just the appropriate tags. There’s another one that downloads cover art. There are plugins to use Last.fm tags as your genres, moods and so on, so you can always find a song in the style you want.

With the right plugins, you won’t just search MusicBrainz, but also Amazon, Google, SoundtrackCollector, eBay, Game Music Revolution and lots of other sources. It can do acoustic fingerprint searches, entire CD searches, and has a lot of plugins to extend its features.

Open source and free (and named after my favourite Starfleet Captain), MusicBrainz Picard (Windows/OS X/Linux) is the official MusicBrainz tagging tool, and it offers a simple interface that hides a lot of power. This is how “Track05.mp3” turns into “The Beatles – Here Comes the Sun.mp3.” If they can’t, or if there isn’t enough data to search, then they check the song against AcoustID, a database of audio fingerprints in order to figure out what the song really is. Those apps do two things: First, they check your song against the database to see if they can find a match. Then, there are apps that use this database to identify and tag your music. A lot of people know “MusicBrainz”, but they don’t know that MusicBrainz is just a massive database of music. It’s a treasure trove of songs and their associated information, and there are almost a dozen apps that interface with it in order to organise and tag your music. It features information on close to a million artists, over a million releases and over 13 million individual recordings. MusicBrainz is a free, open, music encyclopedia.

They will clean up your library so that when you do upload them iTunes Match and Google Music will find high-quality replacements to store in the cloud for you, and you’ll never have trouble finding what you want to hear when you choose to listen offline. That’s where the tools we’re about to mention come in.

When I start a station based on a mislabelled song, the following tracks are appropriate and in-theme, but I still have to update the song myself. While I’ve found that iTunes Match and Google Music often do a great job of figuring out mislabelled tracks, it doesn’t update its metadata in my music library. Sadly, if you like any older, obscure or remixed tracks, especially if you’re into electronica or independent music, you’re going to run into trouble finding what you want. I’ve had varying levels of success with each approach. You could also just sync your library with iTunes and let iTunes Match sort it out, or with Google Play Music and let Google figure out what “Track01.mp3” really is. It may be easier to just give up on your music library entirely and switch to a service like Spotify, which lets you hear whatever you want whenever you want it.
