Vanessa , Dj thermo mix! Or Dj pink thermo mix lol jk jk ☺
I'm kind of new to this channel. I'm starting to make watching it a routine. Good stuff man.
Take your real first name and add a cool sounding music term like sine or saw or noise to it, and that's it!
Oh and make sure to spell your first name wrong.
Jon Sine
thats exactly how you do it Herman Grove :)
peter phile
#NotificationSquad Your mom's work was just AWESOME! And by the way the future bass style sounds interesting!
audiofrantic? Just getting started and not too attached to it yet. Side note: Your channel is awesome. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.
Mother Vanessa (jk). Side note: I didn't think I'd get into a vlogging channel, but I'm totally hooked. I love how the education is split with 'daily' life. It give your videos nice breathing room. Now you're part of my daily routine. Keep it up!
My artist name is Lovely Overdose, i think it's cool. Any thoughts on it?
Cool
I'd recommend also checking candidate artist names for meanings in most common languages. With my first artist name I didn't do this, because I thought it's just a fantasy word I came up with. After some time, it turned out it's actually an English slang word I didn't know, and even though it wasn't really that bad, it didn't fit with what I wanted to do or be at that time. This was basically the end of that project.
Bustin Jieber..... Nailed it 😂
Александр Резанов best ever! Haha 😂 😂😂
#notificationsquad keep up the good work :)
I love that down low Hardwell diss, it's so true
Since Jon expressed his curiosity:
My artist name came about because I was trying to find something that would fit my music style (trance/hardstyle/gabber). Hardstyle and Gabber artists seems to have a thing for the letters k-q-x-y-z and for the name to be a little more dark sounding (zatox, headhunterz, arkaine, gunz 4 hire, audiofreq, showtek, etc.) but due to the trance influence and the fact that I like more atmospheric, euphoric hardstyle, I wanted to reflect that with something a little more "sleek" I guess? Well, "Zeerus" was an old name I used to use for video game characters and it fit what I was looking for so I went with it. I added the "Dj" bit because in hardstyle and gabber, it is still a very common thing to throw that before your artist name for whatever reason.
P.S. Showtek and Headhunterz did actually start off with hardstyle.
Dj Names ideas for Vanessa "pink noiz" and if you guys were a producer duo "frequency modulators" cuz you know you are a sine (wave) and Vanessa is your other half that "modulates" you and add a lot(of frequencies) to you ;)
I think the old version sounds better cuz the new one sounds too generic and doesn't fit your style
Diego Escobar This name is lit af!!!
Its really similar to bass modulators (hardstyle djs)
Regelo, i came up with it for a game and when i needed an artist name i chose the name i used this name. Its an easy name to remember, its a neutral name and it sounds good when you say it out loud.
Jon, Super useful information there as always. Picking the right name is crucial and it should fit the genre that your playing.
Like for example Skrillex: you can actually hear the sounds he uses in his sins just in the name. Like "skrlllll"
Love him, he's a freaking genius
Who agrees with me?
Hi, my name is Max (short) and i always wanted to create more an experience than just music. for life-sets i always composed new transitions between the songs having a hard break between metal-ish music and more electronic music in the interludes. i really wanted people to fall into this long piece of music without any breaks, so the drummer of one of my former bands came up with my name: Maxperience. i instalty thought it was the perfect match foy ma name and my musicals goals. cheers
#notificationsquad great vid:)
haha just what i needed xD
WaveNess...if you were a duo, SineWave :p
My name is Kraltum. Short and catchy imo, and personal!
name is Mikuzk and genre would be currently dubstep but I have been working on my own genre for 2 years now and it will be ready 2020 and push me to the stars. Welcome to my trendywagon then :D Story behind the name is that I have always used it in internet, games, forums excetra but I'll propably change it when I get to the marketing part of my career like Sonny moore went from twipz to skrillex.
My branding for all music stuff is JAMp hamayame, JAMp goes for all of music production (game & edm) and hamayame goes for my cover singing alias.
both of JAMp and hamayame are from my name. JAM from reverse abbreviation with the 'p' on producer, hamayame is choiced syllables from my name.
after having too much going around with this name stuffs, this one is the one I prefer to be called to around my circles besides of my past dark dark cringey artist name :D
as for Vanessa, BopDot! :3
8:34 - I heard people pronounce his name „DJ Cozy“ nowadays. But yeah, if you loved Fischmob you don‘t :D
the bass synth with the envelope is too cheesy-2000's for me. A blend of both versions minus the envelope bass sound would be really cool. I like the synths in the 1st version bc they almost sound like orchestra violas. I would try to use some viola type sounds. M83 - Oblivion is a good example.
Group name - Sinewaves
Vanessa's artist name - Bildschön
I have I dilemma with this name thing. I chose a name and released 5 tracks under the name Ta-Quin , then I noticed 2 other people using the same name taquin and now I feel I have to start over :( what do you think ? There is a long story behind the name should I keep it or start again ?
I think the basic Name-Surname is always the most natural. You'll always relate it with a person because that's the structure we are used to, so that's never going to look old.
All this trendish things can look cool at the moment, but are going to get old and look weird. This "mixing capital letters with numbers" (1M7H3B055) thing that's going on right now looks like a wifi pasword to me
I'd say the only thing is if there's some type of trend within a genre and you plan to stick with the genre. Every music genre (not just EDM) seems to exhibit some sort of style or trend that the artist names follow. It can just be a little weird when your artist name completely does not fit the music you're making.
Dj Zeerus I think so, but I personally wouldn't force myself to stick to a genre forever. Since I started I've made a lot of different genres (from hardstyle to chill) and now I'm starting to create my own. I love experimenting new things and I don't think getting stuck in one genre is a good idea.
To give you an example, I used to love Big Room House and now I pretty much hate it
I was thinking “Bryo” as my artist name. Brian is my real name but everyone thinks it’s spelled with a “y” instead of “I” also my friend likes to call me “Bryon” which is a French variant of Brian so I dropped the “N” and Bryo was born.
Rap name: Used to be R.O.B. but their were a few of those so I just spelled out the acronym... RhymingOverBeats...because My name is Rob and I rhyme over beats. Simple. Production name: IHMadeThis My graf tag was Imperial Hiro (Imperial - relating to an empire....Hiro - a Japanese given name with multiple meanings, dependent on the characters used. 裕 means "abundant". 寛 means "generous, tolerant" and 浩 means "prosperous.") and "I/IH" made the beat...thus... "IHMadeThis"
Also ich würde an deiner stelle einfach 2 verschiedene drops machen. allerdings würde ich die gleichen sounds nehmen. in dem falle finde ich den ersten sounds wesentlich besser. #notificationsquad
21k!
I call myself Puzzles, because that's the puzzles. #HIMYM
What does everybody think about N8 Classics. My name is Nathan, short is Nate. I also love Passionate Coleman, because my name is Nate/Nathan Coleman, but it's too many syllables. I thought about N8 beats, but everybody uses beats after their name. Everybody used to call me Nasty Nate too, but there are way too many musicians with that also. I like Nate/N8 Classics and Passionate Coleman because I am very passionate about making classics. What do y'all think? Or Nate Nice?
#notificationsquad !!!!! By the way great Video :D
Congrats you will get access to the jon sine team app pls pm me your email here on youtube :)
Jon Sine Thank you So much jon....You made my day :D
New alias Jon. DJ Boom Boom Man!!
that could actually work.
Great name, The Boom Boom Man! 👍😆 (not for Vanessa though) 😂
Fun fact: Hardwell recently made a Hardstyle Track :D
Hardly surprising! lol
I like your videos, I am just wondering the reason why you switched from hip-hop to EDM; it must be a big difference, I am a fan of electro but I hate hip-hop :)
The switch was 12 years ago when I didn’t even produce. I love good old school hip hop but at the time most hip hop songs where really bad and produced for a market instead as it was at the beginning with a message.
Zeph or Pyro? Thanks
My realname is Luc Wijnen ( iam ftom the Netherlands) but for games i always used the name Farox ( you pronounce it as Ferox) do you think this is a right DJ/producer name.
Mine djtanay simple and cute
Hey! I am a beginning EDM producer who has no idea what to call herself. I think NeonCynematik (or some spelling variant of that) might a good idea... is it? I often come up with tracks that are a blend of glitch hop, drum 'n' bass, various kinds of dubstep, and ambient; usually with a somewhat symphonic feel that paints a movie in my head. I like flute melodies, vocoder effects, chiptune-like patches, bell-like patches and unique wobbles.
Margaret Patel Your first name backwards is Teragram...think that would be pretty awesome!
XD Actually, that's not a bad idea... I already picked Sonic Sidewalk, but Teragram might be better! Thank you!
... Then again, a backwards name might make crazy conspiracy theorists think I'm in the Illuminati or something lololol
Margaret Patel Hahahaha! That makes it even better!
XD rotfl
Vanessa could be called Sine Partna!
Du hast Karotte vergessen :)
#notificationsquad
ahh du kommst aus deutschland haha wo kommst du denn her? :)
i started with dj aman but aman is a very common name in india so i changed it to AM3X, am represent the first two letters of my name and ex is from rex (my dog).
"A.P. Wageman" because my name is Austen Paul Wageman. Also, I thought of "Austen Paul" or "Wageman" ... thoughts?
My name is James, any DJ name suggestions?
#Notificationssquad
DJ van Nessa.
Can I take "BOOM BOOM MAN" ? Thanks in advance.
Vanessa's dj name= dj shark
#notificationsquad
Actually "Hardwell" just translated his real last name
I suppose my youtube name Thomas Synths. Then again, I don't really plan on making money for my music as I'm just a hobbyist.
Vanessa should be "Nessa" #NotificationSquad
Roy Owen? :D
Can I just call myself Dandelion
Pls answer
Does Projekt M sound good enough? or M the lemonade? xD
Jon so when you marry vanessa? Pls don't mind for my word
"Robn" is probably the worst choice of name in the perspective of SEO. oh well...
I think that the second drop is more creative, and also fits to the vibe of the track. Maybe another layer for a richer top end works good. Also you can introduce small weird sounds in the quiet parts or just small cool percussion elements. It's sounding pretty well right now. I recommend you to listen to Louis The Child, Myrne, Baynk, Chace... For ideas :)
I thought it was a real name
Snow Jade me too for a long time. 😆 lol
Is knwhere a good name ?
2:04 diss to Calvin Harris lol?
Mine is Atmost... what do you guys think of it lol I'd love to get some opinions
I think as long as you're comfy with it, it doesn't matter. Once u get popular, no ones cares, but u gotta own it.
Rapido2311 yeah guess that's true just not sure how much I like it lol
That's totally ok bro temme your last name :P
My name is dj #notificationsquad
Is Horatio cool???
Eric D Coyote❤😺
Is Nanso a good one ? :)
Nanso depends on if it's already taken
OOOOO! Hello Nanso, your last track was really FRICKING GOOD! Just saying :D
oh thanks a lot dude !!!
It's ok but not that unique I think so people may struggle to find you in search engines. That's the problem with finding an artist name in 2017, coming up with something that's both nice and original...
Nanso hey man also a siner?
Is my name good or not?
my artist name is not easy :( Icy Sasaki
How's mine?
Seems like you are some kind of a promotechannel, pick a more personal one
Sounds like a label not an artist name? If you're an artist then maybe change adjust it to Shockwaver or, ShockWaveS .. well something which sounds more individual.. If you're a label it's fine.
Any suggestions for a dj name...!!!
And am the only one exploring from India...!!!♥#notificationsquad
ADIKE
Aaron Rambo it cooool man...!!!🔥👍
Any other suggestions plz reply
DJ JD
Dj dosa
Congrats you will get access to the jon sine team app pls pm me your email here on youtube :)
"Only legal graffitis" ... yea yea :D
😜
Tox-Sin! Does this feel awkward!?
just call me toxin! cheers!
Toksin...bit of word play kind of. "Tok" like a kick drum, "sin", say it together=toxin
oh!
I picked for myself ΝINJΔ
Is Jaxle a good name?
Bahaha......'dj khaled' lol
What about "Flône" Guys ? is it cool ?
Cool name, I like it although now second thoughts I'm not completely sure if its pronounced "flown" or "flonay" or "flo-nee"? One idea would be to remove the "e" so you'd have "Flon", which also rhymes with "Tron". But Flone is cool too (assuming it is pronounced "flown")
Thanks for your interaction. you are right , it's pronouced "Flown" and maybe I will remove the "e".
I have a double-barreled surname, so I left out the first part of it and chose that for my artist name - 'Bilal Cader'. I think it's a unique enough name and I've been making stuff other than EDM which is why I didn't add DJ to my name. I also write songs that are quite personal to me, so I think that by using my name it doesn't feel like it's coming through a filter and it's just more honest I guess. It's simple enough to say and remember and I also just happen to really like my name haha
Also not a huge fan of chopped up vocals in songs but I did like the second one however if you added like an electric guitar in a high octave for the first one playing the top line of the chord progression or something I think it might sound pretty cool.
We have an artist here called Chunda Munki, Chunda also means vomit. So he’s basically a vomiting chimpanzee but he’s one of the most successful artists in my area😂😂
#notificationsquad Is my name is Bad?
Yolo
DJ "Vane Ssine" -- too easy but it rings... #notificationsquad
Wow I like both version but the new version I would pick
First version
Swagga Dipped Misfits
Sub Fiends
Flubba Wubba aka Wubba Flubba
Thanks for wasting my time ❤️
Dj Vomit sounds like a speedcore dj...just sayin...
#NotificationSquad. A famous artist here in sweden had an idea for my artist name lol. My real name is Lavdrim, and if u try to say it in english it sounds more like "Love Dream" so he was like "Hi Love Dream, that should be your artist name" and i was like "Yeah everyone keeps on telling me that so i probably can use that lol". So im thinkng of having it typed like this L4VDR3AM. What do yall think? Come with suggestions too, it'll be fun!! :D
Love Dream sounds really cool
Pablo Bj really? Thanks dude 😁👍
dj venese
Best name ever: DILDO
(DJ Dildo, Capt. Dildo or anything).. you will never get confused with others.. and no one will ever forget your name!
#notificationsquad
I'm still in the creative process of making an artist name for myself :)
How about Dild1, the upgraded version?
Jon, would you prefer that people don't release their remixes on SoundCloud as well as enter it in the competition, so that if you like them you can release them on your label?
Dj 1AssA
Um... looks like you're trying a little too hard to be unique. That's my first impression, anyway.
JOOONN more stupid fun things, we are young (30 is young hm?)
It won't harm this vlogs !!
KAKE - the funniest german word..
I add it everywhere,
