They actually have a song called Music is Math.
Music is Math? Music is Math??? Music is cunting math???!!?? And people ask me why I hate the idea of IDM.
Listen up Boards, you labcoat-wearing, prematurely balding, supposedly-esoteric no-fun numpties. Music is a lot things. Music is sex and death and joy and pain and love and hate and drink and drugs and fun and friendship and sex and revolution. It is lying in the gutter and staring at the stars. It is cum in your hair and blood in your mouth. It is the first shag, the last dance, the last kiss goodbye.
It is not, repeat NOT, math.
The only people allowed to mention 'math' in a title are Jeru The Damaja and Mos Def. Well, okay, actually all rappers. (They means something quite different, anyway.)
But not you. No. You are Not Allowed. Your music does not have the right to children. Your music only has the right to burn. And as it crackles and fizzes and pops, perhaps you could sample that sound and turn it into a fucking five-minute track called 'Dodecahedronal Rhombus'. You fools. You physics teachers. You twarts.

(Disclaimer No 1: yes, I have heard the tune. It starts off okay, but you can actually hear the exact moment when Boards of Canada, sitting surrounded by a pile of glowing glitchy glitchy technology and rollie butts, said "Fuck - we've just found a groove!" "Quick - better lose it again!" Anyway, it's certainly not good enough to justify such an offensive title - unlike, say, 'Smack My Bitch Up'.)
(Disclaimer No 2: I may not really mean any of the above. But then again...)
