 By the early 2010s, however, the industry abandoned "electronica" in favor of "electronic dance music" (EDM), a term with roots in academia and an increasing association with outdoor music festivals and relatively mainstream, post-rave electro house and dubstep music.Nevertheless, the U.S.-based "AllMusic" still categorises electronica as a top-level genre, stating that it includes danceable grooves, as well as music for headphones and chillout areas.In other parts of the world, especially in the UK, "electronica" is also a broad term, but is associated with non-dance-oriented music, including relatively experimental styles of downtempo electronic music.
