I thought your name was Suzie.

Suzie is my English name.... I guess my parents thought of giving me an English name to make it easier for the teachers for school roll-calls....

Back when I was in college and just starting DJ'ing, I needed a name but didn't want to just make something up. So, I decided to use a silly little nickname my mom used to call me when I was a little kid which = Enzyme. Since an enzyme is a catalyst, I thought it made sense as a dj moniker. Also works when combined with my actual name (Ben)zyme.

I read the the Murakami book and thought it was cool name, also quite an interesting (although highly anti-social) effect

Datura is also the name of a fictional chemical in Ryu Murakami's surreal 1980 novel Coin Locker Babies. It's a gas that, when ingested, completely destroys a person's self-control and restraint, resulting in "a form of criminal psychosis [and] the creation of an irreversibly destructive personality" without remorse.[2]

Its a complex amalgamation of aborigine sounds and incantations with a western flavour and divided into a simple four letter phrase.

guerillaeye · Post by **guerillaeye** » Mon Jul 30, 2007 6:57 pm

I used to throw HipHop shows under "Ill Guerilla Productions" .. at one time i was an angry young man who wanted nothing more than to see the world crumble in as nonviolent of a way as possible. Now i have two kids and less of a doomsday perception of the world.. and i now see that i can only change myself and my perception of the things that upset me.. thus guerillaeye.

i dig HP lovecraft. a lot.

theres a university called miskatonik university where many protagonists in lovecraft's world either work, or go to study unspoken-of, dark texts.

i wanted a name that didnt really make sense, but i wanted to pay homage to lovecraft.

thus, misk.

i really hate picking out names btw... im not a nickname kinda guy....

oh, @ jubzcarz: i knew that.

I bear a striking resemblence to uncle fester, so my homies started to call me unklefesta. then my other friend started calling me "festeezee" so I morphed that into FSTZ
