I doubt that Atkins titled the piece. Based on how narrow it is, and how it includes the B-52's I think this is his personal list of influences at the time, and the author is making it authoritative. I agree about Madonna, Dolby, Springsteen. Also Devo, Pet Shop Boys, Herbie Hancock, Harold Faltermeyer, New Order, Moev, Furious Five, the list goes on and on.
