Yea, I found just one site with Franz Renger on it, but it's not in English ... anyways, my concern is what could happen? I don't want any of my songs being mixed up with his (vice-versa). And since he's already on Discogs.com ... does that mean I have to get a new name??

Do the O.G. Armas and yourself share the same genre? If not, then it's okay. If so, you're only likely to get a letter in the mail from some copyright lawyer if you get really famous. Or if he's a real prick.

Who knows, he might not even have the name copyrighted and then you could sue him.

Hhmmm, yea he's in trance as well *sigh*. Seems like he only has that one track out "Angels & Deamons" ... But omg I don't wanna change my name now! What of the songs that I already have out under that name ... Well I guess i'm going to look up that copyright info

in an odd series of events, my hip-hop alter ego J-Kwest released a mixtape entitled "Angels & Demons."

What's weirder is, there is another J.Kwest out there (I had the name first, so fuck him), and one of his tracks is called...














"Armas"!!!!!

anyways.... don't bother changing the name if you really like it. just accept the fact that on Discogs, if you ever professionally "release" anything, you may be refered to as "Armas (2)"

This is not uncommon on Discogs.

Hhmm, this might actually be a good thing ... it'll make me work harder and getting something released professionally and then blowup before he does ... ohhh I luv it ... plus I saw howmuch it costs to trademark
