Even though electronic music is often bashed by classically trained musicians who play actual instruments, but it brings a certain element to the table if not solely by appreciation for noise; sonic manipulation, auditory therapy, and just what it actually takes to produce an electronically synthesized sound. Also, from a composition or production standpoint, I almost view the artist as a composer- just as a band leader or maestro calls on the horns, then calls on the violins, then calls in the percussion, that is a very similar process to building an electronic music track. THe composer doesn't necessarily contribute to the track in each instrument or sound manually, but ultimately is responsible for constructing a sound piece, which undoubtedly takes musical talent, knowledge, and application of discipline.
On another note to those who may not appreciate the sounds of electronic music as "real", I think as growing up as part of the Nintendo generation, the bleeps and screams of digital sounds are actually quite comforting, but I could see where it might not be so satisfying to others.
