Node v16.5.0 MacOS BigSur

Bug mp3 file example: Example file.zip

Not sure if it can help but I did not have the issue with music-metadata@7.8.5 but with music-metadata@7.8.8. And now, returning on music-metadata@7.8.5 is not working anymore.

Is your issue solved @qboisson by upgrading to music-metadata v7.9.0?
