The main genre descriptions definitely need work. They read like he wrote them all up in about 10 minutes just as he was finalizing the whole thing. Some of the statements are even contradictory, such as saying House is the oldest genre, and then saying that Downtempo was "the genre that was here first." But overall they don't do a very good job of describing the distinguishing aspects between the main genres House/Trance/Techno/Breakbeat/Jungle/Hardcore/Downtempo, which would be the first thing to look for in an EDM guide.
And sorry for taking this thread seriously if I wasn't supposed to, but I just had to get that off my chest. He's probably gonna change the guide so drastically in version 3 that my suggestion will be irrelevant anyway. Plus he probably doesn't care
