Why Israeli pick such stage names?

I love Israeli trance scene since early Goa Trance in the 90s. This small country contributed to the Psy scene probably more than any other. But I can’t understand only one thing: why do they choose such stage names?

I’m talking about popular characters or common things like: Coming Soon, Captain Hook, Rocky, DaVinci Code, Ace Ventura, Born Sleepy, Easy Riders, Roger Rabbit, Fire Starter, Freedom Fighters, Ghost Rider, Royal Flush... and there are more I guess.

Lineup of the biggest events

Why? What the point of naming yourself by the name of worldwide-known characters? You can’t even it find such artist in Google because all search results you get are those characters or cartoons. Can someone explain me, please?

Well Zion (wich in term control this dimension. Use to have their marks on most of the public things. Zion PSYon Full on. Well i dont think the artist them self is a part of the agenda. But there is a common theme here. And the name is very Esoteric in their nature. But in the end the artist just wanna have a cool name :)

My guess is that it’s because Israel is hated by a lot of the left-wing in Europe. And the best way to hide that “made in Israel” label is to release stuff using Hollywood movie references. Sad state of affairs. ( I’m pretty rare in Europe , in that I’m pro Israel and non Jewish)

Btw – Israel is fantastic for the Psy trance stuff. Am a big fan of it. I just don’t tell my left wing mates where the music comes from. ( am from the UK)

To me it’s more weird rather than cool. Just google someone like “Roger Rabbit” and you’ll get a million search results of cartoon rabbit, but not the Psytrance act.
