Acoustic Jazz is cool

While this article highlights great musicians, it is interesting that it describes bands like the 'quirky' Snarky Puppy as "acoustic jazz" and that they incorporate electronic music into their performances and also funk.

Snarky Puppy, a quirky Grammy award-winning instrumental ensemble, incorporates funk and electronica into the jazz in its music.

Is electronic music actually considered a style like funk or rockabilly?

edm... of course it is.

I don't know about that. I mean, I assume now that they are referring to edm while saying electronic music.   I'd say EDM is more of a medium, with a sphere of musical styles.  Drum and Bass, House, etc.
