==Description==

In some cases, a track (or possibly even a release) doesn't have a credited performer of any discographic relevance (example: nature sounds releases). These tracks (or releases) should be credited to '''[no artist]'''.

==Additional Informations==

'''[no artist]''' is a [[Special Purpose Artist|SpecialPurposeArtist]].

For details about when to use (and not use) '''[no artist]''', refer to [[No Artist Style|NoArtistStyle]].

Please note that '''[no artist]''' '''''must not''''' be used in cases where the information is unknown, but exists. For such cases, consult [[Unknown Artist|UnknownArtist]]. There also exists other informally used [[Special Purpose Artist|SpecialPurposeArtist]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s, which may be more appropriate than '''[no artist]''' depending on the context, and a special artist as well for [[Data Track|DataTrack]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s (the [[Data Track Artist|DataTrackArtist]]).
