      Try digging some stuff by Christian Jansen a.k.a. C-Jay.  Start with Backslider.

        SemenDemon said it best, you are being too vauge. The real key to finding music you may or may not like is to give us an example.  As other posters have stated with their own suggestions many genres of music use electronic influences, I wouldn't even try to say different. "Electronic music to relax to" is a minefield, so help us out and find something you would consider electronic and we can get the ball rolling.

        BTW Electro is a genre in itself, along with ambient, downtempo and chilled. Tends to be dancefloor music is Electro.

        Listen Here vvvvvv

          That last post is a help because I would suggest Phillip Glass or Steven Reich (sp?), both of which sound electronic even when they aren't. Uh, they are also before 'electronic' I both hate and am fascinated by 'electronic' music as I am, have always been, partially deaf. This DOES NOT mean you aren't hearing things. I hear most things OK. More or less. But what I have is background noise. Lots and lots of it. Always. So my brain attempts to compensate for it by making up music, of some sort. Some a Capella men's choir. Mostly random, very, very repetitive crap. Words will crop up at times to go with the 'music' and I can only pray that they aren't too horrible.

            Steve "Coldcut" Reich ?  Back in the day, electronic would sometimes refer to how the music was made.  Making music in a home studio really blossomed during this time, for a moderate sum of money people could make their own music in the way they like and cut out record company investment and influence. Not just in a club/dancefloor style of music, but with anyone who wanted to get creative.  If it was good independant labels would licence it for release or take on the act to the label giving them creative freedom and a platform to get noticed to a level where major commercial labels buy in.

              There's actually two Steve Reichs (sp?) that I know of and they're a bit odd. There is a Steve Reich (I do have it right:) from1936. Different Trains is mostly what I have.

                  I miss chat. Forums suck for trying to converse. And, yes I know there is the the alternative, but it's like a small town now… If you haven't lived there forever.... well, we'll be nice enough.

                      Not electronic, but this thread is getting way off-topic anyway. So, if you like the early releases from Reich and Glass, Charlemagne Palestine is also worth looking into:

                        But dear God, you have to at some time. listen to this. More awesome than I remember. Play it for your friends as a party joke and ask when it was made. If they know, then knew already.

                              ambient could be the genre for you.
