There's a lot of sub genres in electronica. The term 'techno' has been warped to include all electronic music due to mainstream media being ignorant. Techno doesn't include trance, house, vocals or any of the more modern sub-genres. The correct term is electronica. You have:
trance
vocal trance
goa-psy trance
house
hard dance
euro dance
progressive
hardcore
ambient
drum & bass
break beats
chillout
etc, as sub-genres.

"techno" is just a broader sub-genre of electronica that was pioneered in Detroit, derived from synth pop and electro.

One of the best new rappers out there. Showed up on the scene in 2007, but only got big recognition with his "Exhibit C". He's working with Mos Def, Nas, and Just Blaze to get his name out there. His rhymes are deep, memorable, and intelligent. He'd beat Wayne, Jeezy or Gucci Mane any day.
Exhibit A, Exhibit C, and Act 1 are three songs that will stay with me for the rest of my life and I look forward to what he has in store for the future.
