I have some ideas I thought would make for good separate threads but that would count as spam, so I thought I may was well mage a general thread. Feel free to be experimental, that's really the whole point of this thread.
More diverse NONG picks
Japanese D'n'B has basically been overused at this point, so some more diversity would be cool. Para and EndLevel have already started taking us there, getting electro-pop and lofi music and bringing it to GD. I know there's a megacollab using post-rock, so that's a huge step forward now that we're moving away from Electronic. Bringing in some IDM and Ambient could get some interesting results as well.
More experimental levels
god dammit if kidsmoke, killbot and peaceful have at least been acknowledged by rob we have some sort of chance of experimental shit getting big attention
Bonus: country megacollabs with stronger country influence
We've already seen megacollabs getting members from countries (Polish Alphabet, Valor) but it would be cool if they enforced their purpose a bit more. Maybe have some parts incorporate landmarks or culture from their country. Even using NONG picks by artists from the country in question is good enough to stick to the theme, especially using non-mainstream or experimental artists from said country.
Here's a little list of potential picks for certain countries

Here's a little list of potential picks for certain countries
Australia: Tame Impala, King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard, Flume
North America: BROCKHAMPTON, Code Orange, JPEGMAFIA, Death Grips, Against All Logic, Danny Brown (that's a lot of hip-hop)
Great Britain: Pink Floyd (not really underground but I felt compelled to put this here), King Krule, Hobo Johnson, Rex Orange Country, slowthai
Others I just felt like putting in: Aphex Twin (England), Boards Of Canada (Scotland), Squarepusher (England), Brian Eno (England), ABBA (Sweden, only put this here bc my country is still obsessed with it)
