Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/koel/koel/issues/517

I realized that after 2 clean installs, that compilation album information gets messed up. When I import a compilation (of 30 songs), under the album page, there's about 26 entries for that compilation, with each artist getting it's own album for their songs in the compilation.

The same occurs with an album of 17 songs, 15 of which are under 1 album for the main artist, and the other 2 songs under separate albums.

The only feasible fix I see to this is modifying the metadata of each song before importing them, in which the artist name is the exact same for all songs for an album.

OS is Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. No errors, just an application issue. Resyncing doesn't help, either.

I think this whole compilation issue should be fixed by now, so I'm closing this. Feel free to open another if I'm wrong.
