Do you mean, just electro dance-pop stuff, or ANY electronic music? Is Wendy Carlos bad? Tomita? Is electric guitar and midi keyboard bad? How's about going way back to Pierre Schaffer and musique concrete in the early 20th century? Is Therimin a no-no? What about Messien and his many works featuring the beautiful electronic sounds of the Ondes Martinot?

Electronic dance music and it's related techno-ey genres are such a tiny part of electroonic music as a whole, which is a branch of art music that has been growing steadily for many decades... It's completely fine not to like it, but I highly doubt anyone could not like ANY of it!

Through the magical power of recordings, that music is still here. Through the magical power of globalization and experimentation, there is exponentially more variety of music to listen today, than ever before.

¡Viva el futuro!
