• New artist name
    4 replies, posted
I've been going by the alias of downshift, but I've took a 4 month break from releasing songs to improve my sound. Now that I've taken a break, and I have a remix being submitted, it's time for a new artist name that I will keep possibly forever. My current name is downshift, here's my [URL="http://soundcloud.com/theofficialdownshift"]soundcloud[/URL], only look at the newest ones, the rest are old. So my question is, can you guys help me with a new name?

Downshift is fine?
[quote]No offense dude, but you have 8 soundcloud followers, all you're going to do by changing you name is confuse, and maybe even lose some of them. If you had a thousand, or even a hundred followers, I could understand why you might want a name change, to signify a new direction, but seeing as you don't, I don't think there's a problem with keeping the one you have.[/quote] [quote]Well imo downshift is a good name, but if you really want a new one, you should think of one yourself. I get that you want to hear other people's ideas, but it's much more satisfying coming up with the name yourself, because it's all your idea, it's more leggit.[/quote]

If this name change is permanent, it's definitely a good time to start again. Depends what sort of music you want to make, but I like Downshift. Although looking at last.fm there's already 3 bands/artists called Downshift.
