    Just wondering, what producer, songwriter, singer, guitarist etc would you most like to collaborate with?

    We just launch a website for music collaboration called emeraz.com and would like to bring some guess collaborators to the site and get them working with our member. So who would you pick?

    Man I'd love to write with Mike Patton! John Zorn.......will have to look that one up :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 164 ✭✭brettzy


    Ah, Mr bungle :D What a day in the studio that would be:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    ****ing A! You walk in and you see Mike messing with odd vocals and two 24-track panels, Trey experimenting with the sounds of a Jews Harp and Trevor playing a funky ass bassline, what a band!

    John Zorn produced Mr. Bungle's first album, he is the good of Avant Garde, he made Patton into the musical genius he is today!

    No, that's not entirely true, well, it is to a certain extent for John Zorn, not so much for Mike Patton, granted, he's up himself (and by right he should be too), but he works as session musician to do work for people like John Zorn himself, Bjork, Massive Attack, Sepultura, etc. and he abides by their music but also provides his own imput an artist as only suggestions and the band decide what to do with them.

    When he was brought in for Irony Is A Dead Scene, his collaboration with Dillinger Escape Plan, they wrote and planned as a band. Everyone had equal imput in Faith No More, except for Jim Martin during Angel Dust as he was dragging down the bands' creative vision, every official member of Mr. Bungle wrote songs aswell as Patton, Tomahawk was Duane & Mike's idea together, and Duane has started writing for a new Tomahawk album a while now as Mike stated in a recent radio interview in Austrailia. Fantômas was all him, and redominantly the Peeping Tom was his too. Fantômas was even recorded by him, so realistically Buzz Osborne, Dave Lombardo/Terry Bozzio and Trevor Dunn were only touring members.

    So I believe a collaboration with Mike Patton would run pretty fluently with little or no problems, and some brilliant musical influence from him. But John Zorn, you might be right, but he's a man who knows what he wants, and I would be privileged to work with such a musical pioneer and influence to me, so I would not be bothered in the slightest with taking orders! Patton himself said he was the best musician he played with and put sent him in the direction of where he is now. Saying the best thing that happened in his career was in 1991 when Zorn told him for the first time (with no bother or hesitation);

    "You're playing ****, do it better!"

    Mike said it defined ambition and vision.

    Can they be dead? If so Townes Van Zandt. Also Mark Lanegan and Josh Homme. Oh and maybe Brian Wilson too.

    i'd like to meet some of these guys, sure, but jam with them? damn, i'd be too self conscious to. that's like doodling on a napkin in front of van gogh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,058 ✭✭✭all the stars


    Marsha of Floetry. :cool:
    Fantastic.

    couldn't afford her though...


  • Registered Users Posts: 202 ✭✭Caught


    Lol, I'm always thinking this, saying "wouldn't it be great to sing/write with..."
    I wrote a song the other day, and something about it just screams at me "Jedward". Whenever I read it I say to myself "you should become famous and learn to sing really really well, because this song needs Jedward to sing it with you." :L Please dont post lots and lots of abuse about this to me. :)

    Ehm, I'd like to write/sing with Nick Jonas, or all the Jonas Brothers. I'd love to write/sing with Demi Lovato too. I used to think Miley Cyrus, but not anymore. Her new songs are a bit too "ihh" for me, I don't know what it is...
    I'd also LOVE to write/sing with Pixie Lott, I adore her. I think she's like amazing. And I love Fox Avenue, I think they're brilliant too. :)
    Oh, and The Script, I loveee them too! I met Danny the other day, almost fainted. I love them like so much, they're unbelievably great. :)

    Obvs I'm into teeny bop and pop music. :L

    oh whats wrong with you ??? haha i like some people for the way they write music and some people for the lyrics !! nothing wrong with that!!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,755 ✭✭✭A V A


    i should of really added ian curtis (if he was alive),peter murphy for bauhaus and trent reznor !!! . . . .they are great legends of writing music no matter what anyone says


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    Trent Reznor is more like it. But a lot of the individuals above seem to hit the line of popular music and are somewhat produced that way in order for it to be liked, I'm the type who is a complete arsehole when it comes to music writing because I avoid all common or typical styles out of spite and a hardcore vision of originality, it's very Avant Garde as such, I just write weird **** with ****ed up structure, so don't mind me - if you like it; respec'!

    I like that statement, lets converse...


  • Registered Users Posts: 98 ✭✭new fang


    sure! here's a melvins related anecdote. a couple of months ago my laptop got stolen. it was a really nice laptop but there was no point dwelling on it so i did my best to move on. the real kick in the balls came a week later when i realized my copy of "houdini" was still in the drive.

    there's nothing faggy about touching another man's hair. as long as it's above the neck. show me a person who has not dreamed of touching daniel day lewis' moustache and i will show you a person in denial.

    Billy Corgan. Even just to know what it's like to work with a hardcore perfectionist that demands as many takes as possible to finally nail a certain part 100% or that wants 40 tracks of guitar over dubs.
