New start, new name

Beep street is a top sqp track but the name seems a bit cutesy for a forum imo

I like Beep Street

Beep street is v good !

Beef Street

“beep street” reminds me of an afterschool tv show for kids. It’s a thing written to make well behaved kids seem cool for being bootlickers and has like Christian rap music that gets played while the kids clean up the local park. All the garbage is very clean crumpled paper things and fast food containers that have never had food in them. They get high fives from the local cop who patrols beep street. Then at the end they bust lame “cool kids” poses with arms crossed and remind kids to do their homework and don’t smoke. 

edit: it's a great tune though. but not a great name for a forum.. unless it's for kids who want to learn how to lace up their adidas shell tops with inch wide laces which is cool.

+1 for keyosc too: 
- We're still referencing one of the Warp OGs but distancing from just another Aphex track name
- The name came from this place and given a subtle nod from the good boys in the Exai bonus track ( https://forum.watmm.com/topic/57387-2010-08-kiosk-warp-2x12-cdep/ )
- Key Osc(illating) is a nice transition of a name/concept from the existing Knob Twiddling
- A kiosk is a 'small building where things such as sweets, newspapers are sold, often through an open window, or where you can buy tickets or get information' ( https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/kiosk ) and this place is full of news and information (and sweet tasty choons) available through an open (public) window

On a more serious note, I think the (this) aphex inspired option is the best route forward. Other options which are mostly WATMM-culture jokes tend to be too much self-mastubratory, imo. If it's going to be some kind of reference to an insiders joke, the forum will smell like some kind of exclusive sausage fest where members pat themselves on the back just for being members. (even more so)

It might be the boring/obvious option in some ways, but that helps attracting fresh blood. You'd want something accessible for people who aren't invested in the past 25 years of watmm history.

With that in mind: icbyd.

99% of the people on the internet wouldn't have a clue what it means, but the people who do, pass the smell test for a membership.

no.  i take it back.  icbyd SEO is already taken by the real aphex track.  if someone reads "icbyd" mentioned they wont know its referencing this new website, because the name is just the aphex track.  theyll get confused. and if they search it they wont find the website

keyosc is unique

couple more good ones from that album

rustic raver

chin hippy

also, kiosk is too much insiders joke imo. and too common as word itself. you're setting yourself up for disaster. unless you want more google-ads revenue by pulling in any joe-shmo searching "kiosk". i'm not in the kiosk camp.

also2, zeff i can't follow your post so i stopped reading after the first sentence

Keyosc is great, though, it's not a well-known or distributed track, so it's not like we'd be calling it pen-expers.ae or trirepetae.sean or something, it's a really nice title aesthetically, both to look at and to say, it sounds IDM-ish and looks memorable, and of course its existence is peak WATMM. It ties in with the site's history without being a variation on WATMM 2
