Bands, labels & other collectives might want to display a listing of their artists via a main menu item. We might eventually want to investigate ways to link/replace artist terms to/with users, so the individuals can fill out their own profiles.
I propose we call the feature Pushtape Artist Couch.

zirafa CreditAttribution: zirafa commentedEven though it isn't a perfect analogy, I think "record label" better describes the ultimate goal of this feature. A music community site can be though of as simply a cooperatively run record label site. The reverse is not always true - a record label is not always a community. But both have similar multiple author/editor requirements.
I'd first start by documenting configuration recipes for adding specific functionality, then work towards making them into add-on features that extend the default Pushtape install.
I see a few potentially useful recipes:
* Multiple site authors, editors, and contributors (roles and workflow)
* Artist profile pages (either through taxonomy or users)
* Additional views for searching/sorting through tracks and albums by artist
* Optimized admin dashboards to support multiple author workflow
The above features would allow lots of different types of people to contribute to a site, and assumes the site is larger than a single band.

zirafa CreditAttribution: zirafa commentedFor a Record Label feature, things that need work:
- Additional fields #1878262: Add additional fields for Discography
- Multiple author permissions/roles (probably just make sure node references work properly for authenticated users to avoid confusion)
- Password protection / access code / members area (probably just a password protected access system using secret codes/one-time hashes). Good for exclusive promos, sharing unfinished demos, etc. See: Protected Node and Protected Pages
E-commerce is still a rabbit hole but password protection / access codes gets us closer.
