Thanks.

I wonder whether the original comment about "doom music" is also a reference to the film? I had never heard of it.

It's the other way around, the film is based on a classified ad, which many years earlier was a YTMND meme/fad. NEDM is also a classic YTMND meme. https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/NEDM

It has a complicated origin, but a lot of YTMND was organic and weird like that.

I just assumed it was about ytmnd.
