We're going to have a lot more than 30 years of it. Electronic music has morphed into genres based on Sound Design (Timbre) rather than Melody and Harmony (Pitch) and we're still only beginning to explore that, whereas we've been exploring music based on pitch for at least the last 800 years since gregorian chant started. Electronic music is so broad that thinking of it as a genre is like thinking of "music played on instruments" as a genre. EDM will be around forever (the "dance" moniker is redundant since that's just something people to do music- e.g. each of Bach's Orchestral suites movements are based on a dance type), but the stuff in even 50 years will be wildly different to what we have now. Probably. Kind of interesting that house has been around for 30 years now and it's still quite similar and going strong.
