jamtronica 

Jamtronica is a growing music genre started in the United States in the mid-90's. The genre is essentially a live band playing techno or electronica without any significant use of DJ's or samples. It was in some ways born out of the band Phish's forays into funk influenced electronic music, but the band to really kick it off was the Disco Biscuits, formed in 1995. Since then it has expanded, and other notable bands now include the New Deal and Particle.
I've really been into the Jamtronica seen ever since I caught the Biscuits late-night show at Bonnaroo.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
