how can you be pretentious when you know fuck all about music theory?

Kill yourself you fucking poser

>implying someone wanting to learn more about music theory is a poser.

To sound like a total douchebag, go with the IDM hi hats. Get you an 808 sprinkler hat and fuck with filters/velocity/panning, double-timing the pattern compared to the rest of the beat.

Track related, I made this a long time ago specifically to piss someone off

Go into any thread on 4chan, except /classical/ and /comp/ and you will see.

Pretentious is simply "attempting to impress by affecting greater importance or merit than is actually possessed." Pretty much every poster in the popular music threads of /mu/

Serious answer:

Make an EDM track using Twelve-Tone
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelve-tone_technique

You really can't get more pretentious than this, and if you could somehow make it not sound like total shit, even better.

You could try something like making a track using only samples played in reverse

watch that shitty ass deadmau5 commercial for his school
