There’s such a thing as cultural context. Beethoven is not known as the EU anthem composer, and Eno is not known as the Windows 95 sound composer. It’s weird to refer to them this way.

Yes, you’re absolutely correct, context is important. In this context, the most relevant achievement of Eno is in the title of the article.

  The order of the words in the title implies Windows 95 is more culturally important than Brian Eno.
  
  Anyway, Infected Mushroom’s one is better.
  
  Tired of arguing in the interwebs.
