Excuse me for replying to myself. I found out how to do it, it's as simple as: cat song1.ogg song2.ogg song3.ogg > song123.ogg The problem is that very few players handle it in an acceptable way, and none that I tried showed the tag of anything but the first file, so it's a no-go, unfortunately. Sadly, the only player I know of that handles this correctly is still foobar2k, a proprietary player for windows.

One thing about levels: they are imho not optimal. One thing you could try: wavgain a copy of the files (trackgain), make the vorbis file and check if the levels are fine. theoretically it should work reasonably well.
