Finding people to collab is hard man. I feel like a lot of people are just in it to look cool, or for some short lived clout. That’s wack as fuck. Coming from hardcore and punk scenes, everyone is so stoked just to be involved. Sure, now and again the typical grifter comes along and leaves a sour taste in everyone’s mouth and creates music that I feel is disingenuous, but those guys are easy to weed out. You should create with people who are stoked as you are on a project. If the only thing y’all do for a minute is nerd out over whatever Blueprints you got laid out, that’s exactly what you want. Every band i’ve played in has just been with people who get excited hearing the words “hardcore” or “mosh part” in the same sentence, and that has always lead to some of my favorite memories when writing or recording.
TLDR: Find people who are excited, down, and show up and put in work. Those people are worth collabing with
