Ditch the "O", rearrange some shit around, and call yourself Maniak!
(Pronounced Maniac)

Mine's just a play on words that popped in my head. I like Deli sandwiches, and I've done my share of drugs. But I don't like it as a production name, it's just kind of a witty pseudonym I made up, and I'm not about to use my real name, Andrew Smith. It's just waaaay too common, the third most common in the country or something like that I've been told. I'm not really good at making up names. I just haven't settled down in one genre or style yet.

Also, I'm going to have a go at banging my head on the keyboard. Here goes...

First time didn't produce any letters. But what does it mean??

I hand picked the name Stasis because it is:
A) Cool
B) Somewhat memorable
C) Marketable (due to it's shortness)
D) Has great letter combinations for a good looking logo

The name of my non-dubstep side project (everything from hip-hop instrumentals to disco influenced house) is called Huskee Pilaf [Husk-e Pee-loff] because it was the funniest name I could think of.

And my chillwave side project where I use only samples from Tim & Eric songs is called DUNE FANGS because I had a name generator do it for me

My forum name and gaming tag is apmje, my initals apm and then je from back in the Counter-Strike days.

Sometimes go by Antje too. Played TF2 under the name Anthony/Ammy for awhile too.

Bleak is my 'DJ name'. I got it because I'm a fairly pessimistic sort of person with a fairly bleak view on life. Could of went with Misanthropist but wee bit long. :/

It's a pretty clever idea, right!?
I've only got one song in the works right now, but me and my girlfriend want to make this side project a collaboration, so I'm waiting for her to help me out with it.
I think it's pretty sweet that my girl wants to make chillwave tunes with me

It´s a little bit funny story...

I got a spam letter from one astrological page about guardian angels and mine was Chantall. I kind of liked this name and because I was searching one for myself I choosed this one. I still don´t know do I wanna use Chantall or Chantal...Anyway, I did a little research about this name and I found that it has french origin and it´s somehow related to "song". Like my real name(one origin is french and meaning is song).

I have thought about changing it to more original but untill that, I use Ch4nt4l

I appreciate the truth in this. But I must ask .. How therefore, did Naan Bread, choose you?
