It seems like every season I draw up a new name for my
music. So far: Abilax, (does that mean Mr. Salmon in
Finnish?) Swift Jams, and No One Special. Eventually I end
up hating the name and ditch the project. I'll still go on
with the music, but I'll change my moniker. I hate this.
Help me decide on something that will last. I'm not good
with decision making.

P.S. - IDM/Electro track coming up tomorrow.

isn't it just a matter of getting a saxophone patch on your
synth and add copious amounts of reverb on it?

maybe not

I need the incredibly bored drummer and the insanely happy

the thing with monikers is they will all feel weird to begin
with, then you get used to them.
find something catchy and stick with it.

A few names i like..

Lone Star
Spiral Sun
Cybicon
Phiral
Xenotech
Formant D. Esquire
Visitors From Above
Dream Bureau
Psion Teklogix
Ison Pemm
Infected Sector
Black Lotus

A lot of these I used for track names so far..

There was a native kid who died after shortly after being
released from police custody called :Stonechild. I thought
that would be a good name for a musician. How about 'dollop'
shift the Ls down a bit and it reads upsidedown too.
