Earlier this year, Dazed's Summer 2015 Girls Rule The World cover star and alt-pop heroine Lorde took to the stage at the BRIT awards to perform an entrancing, synth-smudged rework of "Royals" with Disclosure. As it turns out, that was a taster of more to come. Last week she announced over Twitter that she had been working once again with the garage-house duo. And while we think Lorde's velvet-voiced tones will sound like gold-dust over Disclosure's bright 2-step formations, we can't help but think about all the other incredible producers we'd like to see Lorde work with. So for the sake of wishful thinking, we've put together an all-girl rundown (because girls rule the world) of all the producers we'd most like to see collaborate with the dark pop priestess. Which ones do you agree with?

Georgia

Who are they?

This London-born experimentalist first came to our attention last year when she dropped her distorted, clap-heavy debut "Be Ache", and we’ve been hooked on her sound ever since, from the get lean anthem "Hard Lie This" to the warped synth patterns of "Digits".

What would it sound like and why would it work?

Georgia and Lorde could form the duo you never knew you always wanted, with the rapper and producer lending a hard-hitting electronic edge to Lorde's pop-speckled melodies. Plus, we think they'd both be really fun to party with.

LEIKELI47

Who are they?

She's our new favourite rapper and it's not hard to see why. She's loud about her politics, faultless in her delivery, and she makes music to crank up to 100. The Brooklynite is also in the pages of our summer 2015 Girls Rule The World issue of Dazed, which is out now. Oh, and she always wears a mask. Always.

What would it sound like and why would it work?

It would sound like nothing you've ever heard before, and that's why it would work. But with Lorde's beautifully bored rebellion, and Leikelik47's riotous flows about revolution, the two would make a girl gang not to be fucked with. 

MICA LEVI

Who are they?

Mica Levi, also known as Micachu, was nominated for a BAFTA earlier this year for her ethereal, free-falling soundtrack to alien epic Under the Skin, and she's recently lent her talents to the first part in our series of exclusive remixes of Bjork’s Vulnicura. Before then, though, the genre-splicing musician made a bass-heavy, lo-fi mixtape with fellow London producers Ghostpoet, Man Like Me, Kwes and Toddla T, and before then she was one third of chaotic pop experimentalists The Shapes. 

What would it sound like and why would it work?

Based on Levi's most recent musical creations, a Lorde collab would be a match made in sonic heaven – cinematic, soaring and full-bodied, with Levi's rich, otherworldly string arrangements beneath Lorde's sweet, cut-glass vocals. Of course, maybe Mica Levi could lend Lorde an experimental edge and throw in the sound of a vacuum cleaner, or her own invention, the chopper, both of which she has harnessed in previous tracks.

GFOTY

Who are they?

It seems like all PC Music-affiliated artists have the ability to make or break a friendship, with half of listeners thinking their music is irritating to the point of being unlistenable, and the other sucking up the candy-coated, hyper-futuristic dance pop through a straw. And while her recent comments have left a lot to be desired, GFOTY's helium-soaked eclecticism on record gets our vote every time.

What would it sound like and why would it work?

While a GFOTY and Lorde collab is almost unimaginable, we like to think it would be more incredible than disastrous. Lorde's sweet tones would be sped up to resemble a six-year-old child after one too many M&M's and laced over GFOTY's tinkling, spiked beats to create something that is completely, utterly unique.

E.M.M.A

Who are they?

Keysound producer E.M.M.A has given us two spaced-out, sparkling electronic gems in the shape of 2013 debut Blue Gardens and, more recently, the neon-flecked, slow-burning track "Light Years", which accompanied Sophie Davies' short filmic portrait of London at night time. She makes music that is sleepy and nocturnal, like that moment just before you drift off into your dreams. 

What would it sound like and why would it work?

We know that Lorde has perfected the art of atmosphere already, but production from E.M.M.A would take that spectral edge to another level, with moody synth patterns to bubble beneath Lorde's languid vocals. It would be a collab fit for a film score – or a 2am drive home in the city.

WILLOW SMITH

Who are they?

While Jaden Smith has been climbing the ladder of cool lately, little sister Willow definitely overtook him when she became the face of Marc Jabobs' AW15 campaign earlier this month. We should have seen it coming really, considering the teen feminist had perfected the art of the club jam by the time she was ten years old, and has since mastered the art of self-production, including our favourite slinky, summer banger "F Q C- #7".

What would it sound like and why would it work?

Based on Willow's recent alt-pop leanings, the duo would make sweet summer jams to dance to – like "Royals" but with added xylophone. Also, remember that time Willow tweeted, 'Lorde ft Willow Smith'? She was thinking it long before we were. 

HOLLY HERNDON

Who are they?

The tech-obsessed digital composer has always managed to bridge that gap between experimental and accessible, human and post-human, teasing synthetic samples into intricate webs of sound. Plus, she's just graced us with one of the most impressive musical creations of the year so far. 

What would it sound like and why would it work?

Ever wondered if the clicks in "Royals" were the sound of an iPhone unlocking, or the blips in "Tennis Court" were the result of misplaced wi-fi connection? Lorde and Herndon might seem at opposite ends of the sonisphere, but listen to them side by side and you can hear the pop in Platform and the digitalism in Pure Heroine. "I'd like for my music to be even more experimental and even more accessible at the same time," Herndon told us in an interview last month. This is where the Lorde collab could come in.

TINASHE

Who are they?

Tinashe is queen of the darkly smouldering R&B jam, from her honey-dripping debut Aquarius to her cult collection of perfectly crafted, bedroom-produced mixtapes. The 00s-style singer is also no stranger to lending her powers to other figures in pop, having worked with Ryan Hemsworth, DJ Mustard, Future, A$AP Rocky, Dev Hynes and Charlie XCX.

What would it sound like and why would it work?

We like to think a Tinashe/Lorde collab would be nothing short of perfect. Imagine a slick, click-heavy version of "Yellow Flicker Beat", or the rich, lilting vocals of "Team" slowed and spread over a dirty, hip hop beat. Also, she did namedrop Lorde in an interview with us last year, saying, "It’s been important for me to be able to experiment and not get stuck in a box... Think about Lorde. Is it pop? Indie? What is indie these days?" This could mean it’s not just wishful thinking after all, right?

FKA TWIGS

Who are they?

FKA twigs has spent the last few years redefining the parameters of pop, from the gold-dripping, falsetto-flecked "Two Weeks" to the bass-heavy, skeletal beats of "Glass and Patron", and in between staring wide-eyed at her ever-intoxicating music videos, we spend a lot of our time trying to figure out what she'll do next.

What would it sound like and why would it work?

They both have such distinctive vocal styles, it would be incredible to hear them intertwined over twigs' hypnotic, glitch-smattered production. Plus, with FKA twigs' sharp, balletic style of voguing and Lorde's freed-up and fiery dance moves, just imagine what they'd look like on stage.

BJÖRK

Who are they?

The Icelandic icon's legacy extends far beyond her music and encompasses a number of creative forms, from her revolutionary technological crossovers to her fearless fashion sense and innovative use of visual arts and film. Her far-reaching productions have always out, from the early, trip-hop days of 1993's Debut to the mournful, technical brilliance of this year's Vulnicura. 

What would it sound like and why would it work?

What we've learned from the past, and from our series of exclusive remixes, is that no two Björk collaborations sound the same, and her work can be interpreted and reworked in an infinite number of ways. If Lorde and Björk were to merge their musical talents, who knows what it would sound like? But we'll bet anything it would be incredible; like "Black Lake" for bored, post-digital teens.
