Need some help with developing an EDM stage name.
Posted on: 08.10.2012 by Venetta Chazen
Hi, DJ TechTools.

I am 18 and in the process of re-branding myself for upcoming gigs and festivals, and need a new name. I produce drumstep and glitch mainly, and I need some ideas for a punchy, memorable name. I have rattled my brain and cant believe of anything particularly catchy apart from "Aphelion". Preferably, I would like something double barrelled, I just need some ideas...

Thanks...

I have a friend that goes by Dady Manther - I'm not sure if he's being serious or not. He called his last mix "Chasing Cougars" which I found to be hilarious either way.

08.10.2012		I used to go by the name Aphelion. Not that I ever released anything mind.
Also, my 5 second google search brought up several artists trading by that name.

5krillex
Sk111
S61l8om
Skrillmau2
R1l73x

Anyway, I'm pretty sure music counts for more, stage personas are more cliche by the day anyways.
There are too many variations of Skrillex. Everything has an "x" in it these days...
