I try to parse a JSON output. This works fine for the top level entries, including the ones in my  
`json_foreach "releases"`  
loop.

For the sub item content like in `text-representation`, it seems that I have first to select the item titel without content (`text-representation` in my example) followed by the sub item name (`language` in my example).  
This works also for the next sub item name `script` and associated content "Latn"

**But how can I get back to the upper JSON level?**

In my case I should get back to the level where `artist-credit` would be the next item.  
How can I do that?  
Or how should I traverse such subitems to find a specific name and content?

Please try:

```nohighlight
json_select_object "text-representation"
   json_select "language"
   sayrest
json_unselect_object

```
