EDM is a specific subgenre of electronic music that became popular in the 2010s with Skrillex and those big mainstream American festivals.
The most general term would be 'electronic music', or 'dance music', but not 'electronic dance music'.
Similarly, if you say 'dubstep' to a person in the UK they would think of something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHRf9DNdkgY while an American would think of something terrible. (Good track for this discussion about bass, incidentally).
'Garage' is another one. Totally different genres in the UK and US.
