Introduction
So, you have a new puppy! He's so adorable and loving, but you can't keep calling him "dog" or "boy" or "the pup"...a name will need to determined in the not-too-distant future. While this task can certainly stir up a great deal of stress, just remember that he is your dog, your precious pup and he deserves a similar amount of consideration and thought to be given to selecting the appropriate moniker, just as you would give for naming that new baby in the family. While there are many possible avenues to travel, why not choose a name based on something you may enjoy ... like music ... specifically, electronic music!
Electronic Music Dog Names in Pop Culture
Featured Famous Dog with an Electronic Music Name
Tekno, the Robotic Puppy
The world of electronic music is growing on a seemingly daily basis, ushering in a huge variety of digital music genres which range from electronic digital dollops of sound to melodious electronic tones. These digital musical and tonal arrangements can take you from calm and relaxed to super wired and agitated with their sometimes syncopated rhythms to the wild tribal feel that makes you want to dance until you drop.
Our featured famous dog with an electronic name is Tekno, the Robotic Puppy. And, while he really isn't a real dog or very musical, he was manufactured as a great teaching tool. Among other lessons taught by Tekno, he offered a technological look into what the future might hold. Manufactured and launched in the fall of 2000, it sold over 7 million "puppies" in its first selling season with another 40 million over the four years it was in production, leading to many prominent awards and much media attention. Tekno was designed with over 160 emotions and functions, enabling it to fascinate adults as well as kids as it taught children how to care for a pet without some of the less enjoyable facets of that daily care. Providing companionship and playfulness for children of all ages, Tekno could do some basic functions like walking, barking, eating and sleeping. Tekno was also equipped with sensors that allowed for emotional and life-like intelligence, enabling the unit to be "taught" voice commands and even some tricks normally associated with real dogs. Tekno could even react to visual situations and environmental conditions, like knowing when to go to sleep!
While Tekno didn't make electronic music or play it, he was a step into the future ... a step also taken in the music industry when digital synthesizers were developed and used to create new and unusual digital sounds to accompany many of the psychedelic needs reflected by a variety of recreational, and later to become illegal, drugs being used at the time to design a new type of music for a multitude of purposes and reasons.
Electronic Music Dog Name Considerations
Yes, I can imagine that your mind is spinning like a top as you consider delving into the task of naming your new pup. Sure, you can tack any name on him but you'd like his name to be different, perhaps even convey a message or evoke a pleasant experience or memory. Many people opt for using things like the color of his coat, the breed (or nicknames for the breed), his gender or even his yappy barking tendency or super-hyper activity levels. We'd like to open the door for another area of consideration - electronic music dog names. If you're a music lover, it is likely that you don't just like one type of music but, rather, gain some enjoyment from many genres of music, such as pop, rock, classical, country, or easy listening. So, why not check out something that is fairly new on the musical scene and look into the hundreds of types of electronic music which have evolved since the 1960's when digital synthesizers began creating new and unusual sounds. This is an area in which your kids will likely love to help and may be able to provide some interesting input as you grope your way through the many, many electronic music types, and, we'd like to point out, it is a list which keeps growing!
