DJ name
Turntablist's chosen identity
A DJ name is the pseudonym or stage name used by a disc jockey or electronic music producer.
Like pen names for writers, DJ names let performers craft a distinct identity: His DJ name was Skrillex long before anyone knew his real name.
The practice is nearly universal in electronic dance music, where names often suggest energy, technology, or attitude.
