it's just an umbrella term for music that's reliant on electronic instrumentation, but typically when people say "electronic music" they're usually referring to EDM and the like.

the real definiton is music made by talentless people who cant play an instrument so have to copy paste samples of other people playing

People dont belive me when i explain it.

What if they make non sample based music and actually play the synth?

It's unfortunate. I told a family member I like electronic music and they were visibly disgusted that I liked Avicii type shit. It took ages to explain what I meant.

Many electronic musicians don't use samples, or only use them sparingly or creatively (unrecognizable vocal layers/chops).

is easier take a guitar and play than learn digital produccion independent to the talent

This is very true

Electronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments and electronic music technology in its production, an electronic musician being a musician who composes and/or performs such music.

In general a distinction can be made between sound produced using electromechanical means and that produced using electronic technology.

Examples of electromechanical sound producing devices include the telharmonium, Hammond organ, and the electric guitar. Purely electronic sound production can be achieved using devices such as the theremin, sound synthesizer, and computer.

I was talking to this german woman in her end-20's at my summer job about music, and i told her i like electronic music. She asked if i meant like house, and i said yeah, but also other kinds of electronic music.

she then looked at me and told: oh, yeah i used to listen to that stuff too... WHEN I WAS 12! HA! BA-DUM-TSH!

she then went on to talk about her love for 40-50's music, Eminem and other stuff.
