  • Post subject: Broadway and Film Soundtracks in Lists?
  • Reply with quote
I've been on this site for a while, but I'm just now starting to rate albums and make lists. I'm starting to build my favorite albums of 2019 list, but I'm currently struggling on adding two albums: Hadestown - Broadway Cast Recording, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - Soundtrack. Is it possible to add these albums to lists? Does this website allow for rating soundtracks/compilations? I remember seeing Phantom Thread on a lot of lists last year, so I would assume that these kinds of scores and albums aren't going against any rules. Can anyone clarify?

They're allowed, no problem. Just note the difference between soundtrack:


Pulp Fiction by Various Artists

(Various compiled artists)

And original score:


Chernobyl (Music From The Original TV S...°nadóttir

Music composed specifically for the screen medium.

For your two examples, the artists would be Various (for Hollywood) and Original Broadway Cast (for Hadestown).

Users have to add an album to a chart in order to add it to the database (they don't have to keep it on the chart; it can just be a method to add it). Both soundtracks you named have been released as albums, so someone just has to add them. If you choose to do it, add the tracks, cover and release date so a mod isn't left to do it. Albums have to be in the database (on the site), in order to rate them, then you can rate them like any other album. If you meant "rank," you can rank them after you've added them to your chart.
