I would say that it is its "perfect" sound, using programmed instruments. With electronic music, I get a sense of a "robotic" sound.

But, there are several variables to this somewhat broad question. Some "electronic" music is made up of what some consider "fake" instruments, while some may be programmed drums, or an auto-tuned voice.

So, where is the line drawn? At what point of electronically enhancing music do you consider it to be "electronic"?

I think that is just your interpretation of the music! That is what music is all about anyways, making your own interpretation. It is what it means to you, not what it means to someone else.
