Sure, but who cares? This type of music is probably one of the few out there where it doesn't matter what the tracks are called or what the artists name themselves. Do I care if the majority of IDM artists even name their tracks? Or even name themselves?

besides, if the guy had any idea what he was talking about, he'd realize that he simply was talking about the last few RDJ and Autechre releases. Those naming conventions simply aren't true among the majority of idm artists.

Besides, is any other non-mainstream genre any better?
"I picked up the new Death Catacomb Hellmonger LP, the track 'I piss upon the grave of my parent's emanciated carcasses' is totally brutal!"
"I snagged the latest Sadly Drawn Toy single, the track 'Weeping on flowers in the last field I've seen since my lost childhood' totally speaks to me"
