I don't know too much myself, but there are genres like dubstep (which I despise lol) and just general dance music (which may be sub divided into different categories, but I don't know them. House is generally defined as any kind of electronic dance music).

But yes...ayu has many house remixes featured on previous ayu-mi-x albums.
Umm..no.

ayu-mi-xes in the past have had some house in them, true, but they're also mixed with other genres that have essentially nothing in common with house (drum & bass, electro, dub) other than the fact that they're all seen as types of dance music.

House is characterized by a 4/4 beat which isn't found in the other genres I mentioned above, or techno or trance. It can sometimes be found in techno or electro, which is where the terms tech-house and electro-house come in. All of the genres of electronic music are distinct.
