Electronic music made and performed specifically using an Apple Mac laptop i.e. a MacBook or any other Mac product such as an iPad or even iPhone. It is a fusion of "Mac" and "Electronica". This music can incorporate other elements - such as vocal or acoustic instrumentation. The music can be triggered, queued or created live from the Macbook or other Mac device. It is a variation of "Laptronica" which is a fusion of "Laptop" and "Electronica". The term evolved after noticing that a high percentage of electronic musicians who performed with laptops, were using MacBooks. Mac's cult status with artists, musicians and creatives loaned itself recognition as a specific subcategory of electronica.
