142750, I don't even agree with jazz being the classical of its era...

Saying that something is the classical or jazz of its era is mainly a way to give it some high-brow cred which isn't necessary in the slightest.

Also, what type of dumb genre-name is 'electronic music'? Defining a genre *strictly* by the means/tools used to make it rather than that *and* chord-progressions/tonal language/"vibe"/tempos/numerous other things seems pretty silly to me.
