Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted October 15, 2014 Gackt x Moi Dix Mois Rin x Sukekiyo Gotcharoka x BFGN Jun x Zilch / Dope HEADz Basically whichever pairings cause the most sociopathic shit stirring. 3 paradoxal, Tetora and CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanethVarosa 1209 Posted October 15, 2014 The ones that have happened that I've liked: Gackt x Hyde Kaya x Hizaki Mucc x Daishi Dance Ones I'd Like to See: Kaya x almost anybody Kamijo x Sono, maybe. But honestly I'm obsessed with some of the covers I've heard. Like the Crush! albums were amazing and I loved when they covered disney songs, especially Aoi and Sadie's covers. I'd love to see more VK artists cover American songs. 2 Tetora and shizukasou reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAT5 9075 Posted October 15, 2014 Good thread, tetora.Satoko (from me-al art) and ling tosite sigure (凛として時雨)WHY? ling are undoubtedly incredibly talented musicans, but both TK and miyoko's vocals have always been the point of debate. They've often been likened to "chipmunks". So how would ling sound if they stuck to playing their instruments and lent vocal duties to a voice as commanding and thunderous as the hammer of thor? I'd be interested in hearing those results.EGO-WRAPPIN' and SOIL&“PIMP”SESSIONS.WHY?The better question is WHY NOT!!?? The fact that this hasn't happened eludes me. Shiina Ringo has collaborated with Soil&Pimp more than once, and altho Ringo is clearly fond of Jazz music, EGO-WRAPPIN, on the other hand, has built their entire career welding Jazz and quirky pop elements together. Granted, the duo has never been as popular or successful as Ringo, but Nakano Yoshie's vocal dexterity far outweighs Ringo in a Jazz context and Masaki Mori's guitar playing would be right at home with Soil&Pimp. In addition, EGO-WRAPPIN's career predates Ringo's by 2 years. EGO-WRAPPIN' has collaborated with other big name acts like Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, BRAHMAN, and Katteni Shiyagare, so a collab as potent as this should be a no-brainer.Abe Fuyumi (阿部芙蓉美) and THE NOVEMBERS WHY? THE NOVEMBERS have really been experimenting with their sound these past few years and Abe Fuyumi has been moving into more alternative directions of her own. I think they could definitely meet somewhere in the middle. I feel like her deep, sultry vocals would easily mesh with the dark beauty of THE NOVEMBERS...Plus, I think that her and Kobayashi's vocals would flow well together. 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biopanda 2675 Posted October 15, 2014 DIR EN GREY x AKB48 I don't think any more needs to be said about how amazing DEG48 would be. 3 Hoyahe, shizukasou and Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takadanobabaalien 3607 Posted October 15, 2014 After seeing Arlequin and Grieva together, id' like to see them do a collab. Their collab as Grieva + Aki was way too awesome for them to not do it. :v 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doombox 4421 Posted October 15, 2014 Some of my favorite bands I know because of their collabs. Coldrain x various Crossfaith x various SiM x various Crystal Lake x various Before My Life Fails x various Her Name In Blood x various (And by 'various' I mean mostly each other) Crossfaith always say Skrillex is an ispiration of theirs and I'd live to hear him remix their music. Or Crossfaith work with w/ Enter Shikari (or someone equally as popular in their western target markets.) As for only Japanese bands, I'd like to hear Mucc take a lot of the bands they use for their background work (gang vocals and such) and bring them in on some features. ROACH, Peanuts for a Party Boy, Make My Day, etc. 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretsy 1343 Posted October 15, 2014 Some artists that have done collabs I like: MUCC x DAISHI DANCE ("Arcadia") Ringo Shiina x Kenichi Maeyamada (that guy behind various anime theme and idol pop songs) ("Private" (self-cover ver.)) BiS x Takeshi Ueda (AA=, The Mad Capsule Markets) ("STUPiG") TK from Ling Tosite Sigure x Chara ("Shinkiro") MIYAVI x H ZETT M ("Pleasure!") SUGIZO x Origa (whole "Rise to Cosmic Dance" gig + "THE EDGE"-single) Who I would like to see: Kiyoharu x Takeshi Ueda (AA=, The Mad Capsule Markets) I wish Kiyoharu would continue his short-lived experiments involving electronic music - SHEEP VOCALS AND GABBER, HELL YES. TK from Ling Tosite Sigure x Yasutaka Nakata (Capsule etc.) I always wondered what could happen if TK did much "dancier" tracks... Shuuji Ishii x Ken Morioka (Soft Ballet) ...Why didn't these two collab yet? etc. 2 CAT5 and Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DogManX 179 Posted October 18, 2014 Dir en grey x AKB47 / Gackt? Are you fucking serious? I might just have fallen into a troll trap, but it was worth it. I'd like to see Nightmare x the Gazette Dir en grey x downy Jupiter x Moi Dix Mois Hazuki (lynch) x lynch Black Gene For The Next Scene x R-Shitei Girugamesh x Kanon Wakeshima Gonin-Ish - sukekiyo 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crube 585 Posted December 24, 2014 SIGH x Apocalyptica Just imagine if Dr. Mikannibal had joined the band around Hangman's Hymn. MUCC x AVICII Because why not? MIYAVI x The Rasmus This collaboration would go along with The Rasmus' "death pop" sound. But who knows? kyo and Kaoru of DIR EN GREY x Slayer In this scenario, Kaoru could fill in the second guitar as a guest and have a duet of sorts with Tom Araya and kyo. (That's if Gary Holt isn't their full time guitarist.) BORIS x Mastodon Imagine the sludge baby that could come out from this collaboration. BABYMETAL x Lady Gaga A nice Japanese pop meets Judas Priest influenced music to commemorate their tour together. (Why Judas Priest? Isn't Gaga a big fan of them as well?) 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdoll 907 Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) a little of topic but i always wonder why vk bands never had members from other bands featured on their song? like if they liked that one guitar part that one guy did or think blanks voice would be nice here? is it because they dont have the money or cant afford for fans to maybe look else where? but lycaon to cover TG DEG RES and femme fatale freya Edited April 10, 2015 by blackdoll 1 Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enyx 903 Posted April 11, 2015 I'd like to hear Kana Otsubo (Spangle call Lilli line) and Yumi Uchimura (la la larks, ex-school food punishment) make a 'proper' collab together. I say 'proper' because Yumi did previously provide vocals for a SCLL pseudo-cover not too long ago, but that track didn't feature any of Otsubo's vocals. I reckon Robin Aoki (downy) could work really well as a guest-vocalist for THE NOVEMBERS. I know he already worked with them as a producer on zeitgeist (and co-wrote the title track too, I believe, which is probably why Kobayashi's vocal delivery is so downy-esque in that song), but I'd imagine his and Kobayashi's voices could mix together really well while still fitting THE NOVEMBERS' sound quite easily. Other than that, there are quite a few people that I'd like to hear collaborate more despite not having a specific person in mind. Kyo (DIR EN GREY, sukekiyo), TK ( 凛として時雨), miya (375, ex-BLEACH), and Masayuki Hasuo (385, ex-school food punishment) could all benefit a lot from taking part in some experimental collabs in my opinion. I also think Miyavi's best work as of late has come whenever he's collaborated with others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
violetchain 912 Posted April 11, 2015 LIPHLICH x Kiyoharu. I think it would be cute. Kind of like the GLAY x Kyosuke Himuro collab, where you could really see just how strong Himuro's influence on Teru was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
