i've always thought of electro as an extremely limiting (in a good way) genre term including only music with heavy 808 style drum patterns. electro is all about the rhythm, in my opinion. if it has a 4-on-the-floor rhythm, i don't call it electro.
ten classic examples of electro: ice-t and chris "the glove" taylor - reckless newcleus - jam on it aux 88 - phantom power paul hardcastle - 19 Twilight 22 - Electric Kingdom strafe - set it off Hashim - Al-Naafiysh cybotron - r-9 anthony rother - destroy him my robots soul oddity - welcome back to earth and, of course, everything by kraftwerk peace, frank dj mix archive: http://www.deejaycountzero.com
