Did you consider working with Yves? He spent a lot of time mapping
MusicBrainz' Advanced Relationships to Music Ontology terms already.
Personally I'd prefer if there was a combined effort and *one* mapping
of MB into LOD to make things more consistent. Also having
dereferencable URIs would be nice (which is never going to happen
if you
use MB's URIs, given how excited Robert Kaye is about RDF - not).

Well, you never know. Why not ask again? :)
Robert - do you have any plans for "perma-link"-style per artist,
per album
etc. pages at MusicBrainz, which might become canonical reference
URLs for
the things they describe? (ie. with nice stable URLs). If so, could
you be
persuaded to include RDFa markup inline in the HTML pages, so the
content
could be machine-readable too? (or even rdf/xml at a nearby shadow
URL). If
not, fair enough, there are various candidate services who will
probably do
something like this. But my preference would be for the identifiers
and data
to come direct from MusicBrainz if possible. Any thoughts? Yves too,
any
thoughts on best way forward?
Actually, I have some stale code for mb_server from about 6 month ago
to provide RDF representations of Musicbrainz artist URIs (well,
that's a start...). I really need to start working on that again, but
I definitely hope we can have Linked Data directly at Musicbrainz, at
some point! Things are beginning to look a bit better on my backlog,
so hopefully I can revive that work soonish.
RDFa would be good option!! (/me ashamed to not have thought about
it :-( )
Ah, this would be great! Hope you get time to hack on this soon. If
you need reviewers, help etc., don't hesitate to ask around...
cheers,
Dan

Note, the HTML pages describing resources from the LOD instance will
include RDFa :-)
This is already the case for any of the resource descriptions that you
see via the sponging activities in play at:
