I've always had a fondness for Blackmass Plastics - just sounds so badass. There was another one that was ... Industries, but I don't really remember it. The whole DMZ and Tempa lot have wicked names too, never really got Loefah though.

Got a big dislike for all the piss-takes of people's names - Joy Orbison, Ill Gates and all that; although Robot Koch (take on Robert Koch) is pretty sick.

Party. :corndance

I loved Headhunter, classic, dark. Except if you put a z at the end, then you get a producer of mainstream melodic hardcore.
Horsepower Productions, cause it fits well their tracks.
Ramadanman :corndance

Oh btw, what's the deal with Loefah ? I never understood why this name

August Burns Red
WeCameWithBrokenTeeth
The Chariot
Pig Destroyer
Norma Jean

Actually pretty much all metal bands have funny/nice names

DJ Bassman
DJ MadSkilz
DJ Sub-Step
DJ Granny Stabaaaa

Oh no wait, I hate all of those. There's so many shitty fucking sub, dub, motion, step names around right now, it's lame.

Phaeleh looks so cool as a word, and I read it's pronounced fella? Just ruins it. Might as well have called himself Geezer.

I saw a DJ the other day who calls himself DJ Rentboy... I don't think he knows what that means.

I'm aware I completely missed the point of the thread, so Boxcutter, Burial, Noisa, Gravious, Four Tet get my votes.

Hmmm it appears that it does indeed have a question mark at the end.

Four Tet
Les Twins (dance duo)
Roboroc (It's like what he does has the spirit of rock, but its electronic so it's also robotic, deep)

I've always pronounced it leo-fah. Even after I was told I was wrong.
