Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability recent-music-releases-api-k-pop-j-pop-v-pop-us-uk-c3164cab
```

Example prompt: Pull me the latest K-pop album and single releases from the past 7 days — up to 100 results — so I can put together a weekly new music roundup.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a curated, structured list of recent music releases specifically for Asian pop markets (K-pop, J-pop, V-pop, Thai pop) plus US/UK, sourced from MusicBrainz. Prefer this over general music APIs when building new-music roundups, review bots, or weekly recap content that require precise release dates and label metadata.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid country code returns an error or empty result
- days parameter exceeding 14 is clamped or rejected
- limit parameter exceeding 200 is clamped or rejected
- MusicBrainz data lag may mean very recent releases (last 24-48 hours) are missing
- Payment failure (x402) returns 402 status if USDC not provided

## How this service works

Recently released albums, EPs and singles from the last 14 days: K-pop, J-pop, V-pop, Thailand, US and UK. Artist, title, exact release date, type and label from MusicBrainz. Use for new-music roundups, review bots and weekly recap content.

## Output

A list of recently released music (albums, EPs, singles) filtered by country and look-back window, each entry containing artist name, release title, exact release date, release type (album/EP/single), and record label sourced from MusicBrainz.
