Ok, I give up. What is "Electronica"? It's just a catch all tag for iTunes, Rolling Stone, the Grammys and such like for music they don't understand, right?
And I suppose the USA could never put up with calling something "UK Bass". I think we should take revenge by calling Brostep (or Stadium Step or whatever, that thing Skrillex/deadmau5 does) "USA Dubstep" to distinguish it from that thing Burial/Kode9/Loefah/DMZ/Mala/Coki does.
In 2012/13, what is NOT-Electronic Dance Music? What is the DM and IDM that we're separating EDM from?

+Panna Zuzanna I prefer "Armchair Dancefloor" to IDM. Designed to be listened to LOUD and alone on headphones not danced to in a club in a crowd. eg http://drownedinsound.com/lists/armchairdancefloor Though obviously it sounds better on a full Function One system. If you could just have it to yourself rather than being pushed around by the people trying to find their friends or get back to the bar.
