Electronic is as much of a genre as Rock, Jazz, Folk and Classical. While not the only one, one of the most important differences between genres are the instrumentation, and electronic mediums are instruments.

no it's not
you can play a jazz solo with a synth or piano or guitar or a fucking bagpipe it's still played in a style
electronic describes the instruments and that's it. electronic rock. electronic hip-hop. electronic folk. SYNTH POP

What is a trope of electronic music? Wouldn't that cover everything from Stockhausen to pop-EDM? Or are you using it in the sense of "I don't listen to enough music to know what genre this crazy Aphex Twin guy is so I'll just play it safe and call it 'electronic'"?

whatever mix of synthwriting, IDM and jungle there is on the /bleep/ threads and fantano's "electronic" playlist of reviews, when that shit gets mixed with hip hop it's usually electronic music with hip hop styles in it, not "electronic hip hop", nobody outs it as that.
Danny Brown's and Flatbush Zombies' instrumentals are electronic as fuck and nobody calls it electronic hip hop.

That's because "electronic hip-hop" would be very redundant. It would be more necessary to specify when it's not, as that would be almost like an exception to the rule.
