Techno has about as much of a future as ancient greek music did.
What does that leave for the future of music in general then, minus electronics?

Symphonic, ok I can dig that.
Folk? evil dirge
irish folk? evil dirge that thinks it better than it is because it`s irish
Rock bands playing accoustically? poncey turgid wailing middle class trash

In fact without electricity a hell of a lot of music will die, as well as the means of playing it at home, as well as lighting your home etc.
