my last name is Padilla, peeps at school called me Pado/Padi, since the school was irish DJ Paddy was born lol, few months later i dropped the DJ status and left it plain Paddy or Pdy as my techno alter ego.
I would have gone with the middle name/surname thingie but José Padilla is kinda relevant 
I just go by my real name, Jake Lake. I’ve been thinking about a way to use the word intoxicant in a dj name (my punk band is called Rude Intoxicant and I tended bar and brewed beer for many years, so it fits me) but everyone calls me DJ JakeLake anyway, so I don’t think another name will ever stick.
My DJ name is DJ R3clu23. I only used that name on account that I was person that never really went to club, and when I did I stayed away from crowds and stuck to myself when I went. And I just used some l33t characters to change it up.
But, now I’m talking to more people, mainly people asking if I have this or that track when I’m just mingling about the club drinking, most of the time it’s people asking me if “I’m the DJ”
