Those are all types of electronic music. Look at it this way...

Electronic music is the parent, and trance, house, techno, and every other "electronic genre" are its children. lol

(Somehow tho I think this is a spammer in disguise haha)

According to Wikipedia, "Electronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments and electronic music technology in its production."

But has actually baffled me, since you can technically make a folk song or a country song entirely out of synthesizers and other electronic equipment. So I consider the term to be a bit to broad to specify what we actually mean. We need IMO a new term for what's today called electronic music.

I mean, like some artist put their genre of their musical work, electronic but no specification like trance, dance or as u know sub genre. Its like their music got no identity to me. Question is, what is their music identity, 1 minute trance and the other minute house and DnB = no identity rite? Thats what I mean. We all know they are many sub genre but which side are they? I think electronic is too big word for genre specification.

I know that you are a dj rite, so what you call your music genre, Electronic Music? Half house,half DnB and make it a lil bit trance then put some dance in the middle, Not satisfied put some techno in the end? Thats what I mean, No Identity... Haha

If that's your understanding, I have to question who rather than what is lacking identity.

I can't decide whether this thread is touching on very deep considerations of the mechanics of what we collectively term "electronic music" and how and why it is set apart from music that happens to be made electronically... OR if the poster is a complete cretin.

When in doubt, go with "cretin."

Often it's the cretins who touch upon the truth, though. Most people are too careful to repeat and respect received wisdom.
