Struck Gold (mp3s) (sh.itjust.works)

Hey all, I just happened upon a trove (~100gb) of MP3s from when I was a sweaty teenager with a DSL line and a 5-disc ripper. Anyone have recommendations on OSS toolsuites to begin indexing/sorting out the files? Everything apparently got flat dumped from a directory structure to a folder. There’s metadata in about 90% of the content - ~10k songs to sort through shouldn’t be too rough with hashing.

I’d be more than willing to seed once everything is in a happy place, there’s probably a few hundred studio cuts of songs that haven’t seen the light of day yet.

Practices from a sweaty teen that obviously loved during the time of CD changers, with a reflective self objectifying them as such. Obviously I’ve shown growth since based both on the OP and comments in this thread.

Reading literacy is hard.

Well if it indeed is a flat directory structure and you can't restore some kind of subdirectory from e.g. filenames or metadata, then musicbrain picard won't help you because it can't "cluster" and use that find matching releases. Afaik there is no software that can do that without some kind of pre-clustering.
