Music listed under artist with similar name

Subnoize group Kingspade has another unaffiliated artist 'King Spade' under their artist profile. Can we get that fixed? I would like to listen to Kingspade Radio, but this guy's music keeps coming up. 😞

Moderator Edit: Edited title for clarity

Looks like it's been fixed, thank you!

The song "Chewbacca" by Supernova (the punk rock band) is listed on the profile of Supernova Chile (a Chilean girl group).

@tommywimmer Thank you for reporting.

The album "Giggles" by artist Dabin 홍다빈  - formerly known as DPR LIVE - is listed under a different Dabin artist. The frustrating part is one is hip-hop and the other is trance, so autoplay continues in the wrong genre.

Thank you for your assistance with this matter.

There's a new song called "-WANTED-" by "Clutch" listed under Clutch, but they are not the 'real' Clutch. I had previously reported a bunch of other not-Clutch songs that were listed under Clutch, but then that other-Clutch releases a new song and bam, right under Clutch it goes.

There's a new song called "THIS FILE NO LONGER EXISTS" by "Dead South" listed under The Dead South, but they are not the 'real' The Dead South.

Y'all really need to have a system for verifying metadata on these rando new songs by no-name artists that use the same name as well-known artists. Also, y'all should really have a feature to report metadata issues in-app.

The Filter one has been fixed, but the Sygnal to Noise issue persists.

I've passed your additional feedback along to our curation team, @wisepeppy.

This artist profile has been usurped by an artist with one track.

The actual Sandoz is:

https://www.discogs.com/artist/947-Sandoz

Real Name: Richard H. Kirk
Profile:         Sandoz was one of the most prominent solo monikers of Richard H. Kirk since 1992, who produced - after twenty years of listening to Jamaican music - contemporary Electronic Dance music with Jamaican Reggae and Dub influences and other ethnic styles.

@sixtoe I will pass this information along to our curation team to put it on their radar.

Thank you for reporting!

The photo for artist station "Marnie" recently changed, and it's now the wrong artist. It's also listing a recently released single matching the picture, but does not match the artist bio. The correct artist is Helen Marnie, singer from the band Ladytron. It seems the stations share a name. I appreciate your help!

I noticed on my station for a band called And One, there is an album cover that shows on their main page and that starts playing on the station that's called "One Presence." This music is meditation/atmospheric music which And One definitely is NOT. This One Presence album does not belong anywhere near the And One station.

There's at least two, maybe more, artists going by the name "Via", and this artist page  is a mixed bag. The following albums are of one artist, and that artist seems to be in the minority there:

After You Drown 

Sanitize This 

They could both be moved to this Via , where their other album The Day Of Purification resides.

There's a lot going on in that first artist page I linked, and I'm not certain the two moves I suggested are the whole story, or necessarily the correct solution.

So I noticed that on a few inactive artists, most notably Pillar, a Christian rock-rap band, have randomly spammed a bunch of songs on their profile that they are only listed on and take no part in. They are almost always in Japanese. I believe the same thing happened to Thousand Foot Krutch at one point, but they were soon deleted and they started making real songs again. I suspect this is them getting hacked to get used for publicity by these random foreign artists.

There are 12 different artist pages titled "Soen" or "SoEn". 6 of them have the same profile photo, and many have the same description about the band. The one that's mostly correct with regard to having all the major releases by the Swedish prog rock group has 3 recent hip-hop singles in it with Cyrillic letters in the titles that clearly don't belong there.
