I don't really put much thought into it, the tune I posted here was called Add More, coz it was a second version of the tune where I....yes...added a bit more.

I called the file "addmore.mp3" and couldn't be bothered thinking up a decent name before I posted it

Haha YES. ;-) I usually just call my tracks by the date I started it, like 05-25-04 for May 25, 2004, etc. When I finish the track is usually when I name it. If I've already named it before I finish it, then I'll probably change the name anyway.

ï always name them "wow really cool saw melody" or "fucking awesome" etc. And then i forget wich folder ive put it in, and find it again 3 months later, and then i rename it to "here it is" and stuff like that :P its hard to organize over 2000 unfinished projects.

Then I change it later on because usually the first title sounds really dumb.
I do that to, and I avoid titles like "Sunrise", "sunset", "Motion", "galaxy", "feelings", "pacific", "daydream", "sun", "rise", "dream" etc.

I usually give names in quite a similar way.. I actually just try to feel how it sounds and then give a name that fits

So when I just started producing i gave names like puke, crap, shit, fuck, ..

j/k
