About Livetronica

Livetronica is a music genre that emerged in United States in the 1990s. It is usually classed as a form of electronica and jam band music.

From Wikipedia

A jam band is a musical group whose concerts and live albums substantially feature improvisational "jamming". Typically, jam bands will play variations of pre-existing songs, extending them to improvise over chord patterns or rhythmic grooves. Jam bands are known for having a very fluid structure, playing long sets of music which often cross genre boundaries, varying their nightly setlists, and segueing from one song into another without a break.
