i have a set of songs that i'm going to upload in the next day or two, but i can't seem to find any decent names for them. They're all about 30-45 seconds long, and loop seamlessly. But, 'techno loop 1' doesn't do much for it. all of these songs were made on commission, so i didn't think too hard on naming them. any suggestions?

Dude, for techno songs, naming is easy. You can pretty much put anything you want. For example, Psycho Tech. You get what I mean (Ok, that wasn't the best example, but you get the point). Dude, the song is yours, so go crazy with it! You can't really mess up when it comes to names. Just go for it!

Names are your thing... though having a cool (or at least nice sounding) name would boost interest

I like making up words sometimes, for example "Warbly Gwenaniga" sounds very silly and is the name of one of drum n bass songs
Or you could go with something like Telepathic Emphatisism, which makes no sense but sounds kinda cool

If its your first song, attach a prefix of your account name, such as Gecko:[Song name]
That way, if you should ever get lots and lots of fans, people notice you have released a new track sooner. In reflection, i really REALLY wish i had started doing that.

Listen to them with headphones shut yor eyes and see what images the trx conjoure up in your mind, then make a title based around them, that's what i tend to do.

Base the name on what the song sounds like and it's length. If it's fast-paced and 'explosive', name it something like FireShot or something. If it's slow and gentle, name BlueEntity or something.
