Music always evolves, like any other art. With advent of Technology, music has taken quite a huge turn because instead of people, now music can be created solely with electronics. Electronica, Dubstep, EDM are sort of music types which are not very popular throughout the world. Artists such as Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex, Daft Punk are gaining popularity with each stride. I am explaining some of these new age music types below:

1. Dubstep
According to the music website Allmusic, Dubstep's is a "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals."
Dubstep gained popularity in late 90s and 2000s but became really well known only in 2010s.
Skrillex is one of the most popular names in this genre.
2. Electronica
This is a kind of Techno music which uses a range of instruments and autotuned-edited vocals to create a computer like sound. It also uses a range of beats which can solely be produced through computers.
Daft Punk is the group which produced the most popular electronica music recently. They are a duo from French. Interestingly, they don't reveal their identity in Public and always show up wearing robotic helmets.
3. EDM
EDM stands for electronic dance music. This is kind of an umbrella term which encompasses a lot of music types. Most people would be able to relate to this kind of music because this is the most popular music which gets played in Clubs and Discotheques.
Some popular artists of this genre are DJs like David Guetta, Avici, Swedish House Mafia, etc.
