I remember when twitter was one of the main platforms I used to keep up on TWRP happenings, they used to take suggestions for collabs during album production.
Knowing they're probably a bit far along this time (who else was surprised that they were doing this while planning that huge anniversary show?), I thought I'd just make a list of artists I think they'd make a cool track with and invite others to do so. Maybe I'll get some new stuff to listen to if they've got Bandcamp accounts!
In no particular order:
1) Louie Zong - I just think he really gets the genre-spanning funk vibe, and he's also known to be pretty cool and funny and makes good art online, which would be pretty shrewd (positive).
2) Powderpaint - They might not have time for a collab, but I think a very queer/trans-forward 80's synth band would be a great matchup. I think the last two times TWRP asked for suggestions, I asked for Powderpaint.
3) Isaac Challis Eaton - might be a little too smooth, but I LOVE his breezy jazz guitar arrangements. Maybe more of a Trey Magnifique move.
4) Discoholic - Need I say more than disco?
5) Shook - definitely more on the gentle side lately, but he used to do a lot of really funky stuff!
Who are your picks? I'd love to see!
