Album Metadata API

GET /api/music/album $0.01 per call USDC on Base · x402

Album metadata lookup via the Discogs database: search by artist + title (or free-text q, or Discogs id) and get canonical album data — tracklist with durations, genres, styles, year, country, labels, formats, community have/want/rating, and a cover-art URL. For music, playlist, and cataloging agents.

`title`	query	Album title (with artist)
`q`	query	Free-text search alternative
`id`	query	Direct Discogs id (with optional kind)
`kind`	query	master (default) or release, for id lookups

Example request

curl "https://api.webbersites.com/api/music/album?artist=Radiohead&title=OK%20Computer"

MCP tool: get_music_album — via npx -y webbersites-x402-mcp (local, key stays on your machine) or the remote endpoint https://api.webbersites.com/mcp.

How payment works

There is no signup and no API key. Call the endpoint; it replies 402 Payment Required with machine-readable payment requirements. Your client signs a USDC transfer authorization (EIP-3009, gasless) and retries with the X-PAYMENT header — @x402/fetch does this automatically. See the overview for a working snippet.
