Historically

Electronic music was considered to be any music created with the use of electronic musical instruments or electronic processing, but in modern times, that distinction has been lost because almost all recorded music today, and the majority of live music performances, depends on extensive use of electronics.

The term electronic music

The term serves to differentiate music that uses electronics as its focal point or inspiration. Contemporary electronic music expresses both serious or academic music forms including electronic art music, experimental music, musique concrète, and others; and popular music forms including multiple styles of electronic dance music such as techno, house, trance, electro, breakbeat, drum and bass, industrial music, electronica, IDM, glitch, ambient, trip-hop, synth pop styles of the 1980s, and styles that are intended more as experimental styles.
