Naming my magazine

Today I decided to chose the name my music magazine. This name had to be a creative idea that also portrayed the style of naming related to my genre. After looking at the names of multiple indie magazines I discovered that most of the time the names were simple one or two words that seemed fairly random or that they have nothing to do with what the magazine is trying to sell. Names like 'Spin', 'Trace' and 'Foam' seem to have no relation to what their magazines want to sell to the public. So after thoughts of what word that I could use I came up with the word "Composure"

This word seems random enough to be called an indie magazine name, but can also be seen as a description to what some indie music can portray, this feeling of calming and being relaxed. I feel as though the name sounds quite professional and I would consider buying a magazine if it had a name such as 'composure' and I am hoping that the audience would agree.
 The word however was not thought up randomly as such, there was some meaning behind the choice.
Compose; is to put together/create. This term is referred to a lot when an artist creates a new piece of music.
Composure; is a state of calm and in control of ones self. The state in which some people go into whilst listening to music.
Thus my selection of this name.
