Could very well be.  At a big rave in downtown L.A. a couple of years ago on
the 4th of July, Juan Atkins dropped "Numbers" and I remember seeing a couple
of kids right next to me - couldn't have been more than 18 or so - saying
"What's this?"  "Must be new"  "It's doppppppe" or something similar.  I just
smiled and said nothing  :-)
