On Tidal there is a way to discover songs and albums that is different from the conventional one used in other streaming services: through credits. While on other platforms it is only possible to search by album or artist, with the maximum option of searching for publications made under a label, Tidal offers a different way that values the work of many involved in the production of an album.
When accessing any song, whether on the mobile app (smartphones and tablets) or on the desktop app, Tidal will display the main people responsible for producing the track. For example: In the track “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Main Theme”, played in the opening of the first season of the Amazon Prime Video original series, present in the album “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season One “, it is possible to know who is the producer, the composer, the sound engineers, the mastering engineer, the person responsible for mixing and the music publisher. But, in addition, the streaming service also allows the user to select each person mentioned to find out where else they participated in the library of tracks available on the music platform.
