| It's pretty obvious that Moodymann was the basis for the name...when it's this obvious, it's obviously intentional, so I don't see what the big deal is. |

| Really great release, first one from Tsuba in awhile that I've been impressed with, those Justin Drake and Robert Dietz EPs just went over my head. |

So if I name myself DJ Deadmau5c it wouldnt raise any eyebrows? He's using someone else's name who's been established for 15-20 years to get people to click on his music thinking its a new KDJ alias or something
If I were KDJ i'd be pissed at this character trying to cash in on my integrity |

Nobody raises any eyebrows at the name "Joy Orbison" and this is exactly the same thing: changing one letter of a well known name to make a pun. So stop moaning and go back to pretending to like cool records. |

I never said it was a big deal. I was simply defending MAnthony because he was actually right for once, the name is clearly a rip off/pun and there is no denying. I personally don't care or have any problems with it, people have their own artistic decisions. Who am I to judge? I don't dislike Moodymanc's stuff either, he has some nice tracks. |

lol at the manchester joke..I just got that :)
if he were going for a good pun name Cootiemann would have been a better choice. Tacking a letter onto the end really just helps his name come up in search results for moodyman, so in that regard I guess it was a good business move. Here we are debating over his music and giving him free press.
You win mr. moodymanc, well played sir. |

| now that I'm thinking about this, wasnt there an interview on youtube with someone old school from detroit (maybe derrick may?) where he was talking about someone named himself with a "black sounding" artist name, and a black guy's face on the cover of the album? Apparently the person made deep soulful music, but it turned out to be a white guy from germany, and the person being interviewed was pissed off when he found out the guy wasnt black? I wish I could find that clip |
