House music is an offshoot of electronic dance music. He is right, it used to be records that DJs played as a set in the club. The house comes from the fact they were there regularly doing it, like a house musician. The house part stuck to the genre because of that. That completely overlooks what was happening in Europe with the genre though. Kraftwerk and others were already in the clubs actually performing electronic dance live.
