To me 'electronic' music encompasses a huge diversity of music, from trance and techno (which I don't listen to much of) to Kraftwerk and Boards of Canada and the whole ambient music scene (which I listen to quite a bit).
And yes, It Takes a Million is pretty spare considering the rap we are used to listening to today. Their follow-up album though, Fear of a Black Planet, even though it was less militant and more commercially palatable has a sound that still blows my mind to this day.
