## Music Media Standard

Use this for any image-focused NFT schema/category that isn't a photograph.

#### ⚡️ Use the new UI to easily create your schema [tools.cxc.world](https://tools.cXc.world)

> 📺 [Watch the Youtube Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruwx-FeyuWY)

> Note: We have published another [Music NFT standard](https://github.com/currentxchange/Music-NFT-Standard) previous to the media standards. This version is fully compatible with the larger set of media standards published here. To ensure maximum compatibility, we suggest that you use this standard instead of the old standard, but they both work. Please note that there are a few changes in the standard, such as the absence of a promo image field in this version.

> Platform Compatibility: The YouTube field is supported by Atomichub's marketplace, and will be embedded so people can easily watch it. The standard also includes fields for Spotify and SoundCloud, Which is not yet supported by any major marketplace, but may be in the future. If you would rather include other platforms, you can use the `link` field, or as a custom field by changing the name of one of these fields before you incorporate it into your schema.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://standards.cxc.world/media/music.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
