while the words are pretty simliar there's a world of difference between electric and electronic music.

how much improv was put on recordings prior to davis' 'kind of blue'? it was still part of the style but not always reflected on the recordings. same goes for dj based albums but the better ones know how to improv when it comes to live performances (amon tobin comes to mind as a prime example although he's moved away from the south american jazz stylings he started with over the last few years).

here are a few examples of groups listed in this thread that should make the distinction between electric and electronic rather clear.

jaga jazzist - animal chin



squarepusher - cooper's world (live) note how he's the only person on stage


here's an old amon tobin track from his supermodified album
