I am looking for an electronic music genre like house but with more melodies and more soft sounds, nothing aggressive and acid, more melodies and vocal and a little sad.
Is there a name for the genre I have described?

Two categories you might want to explore are "chillout" and "ambient dub".
However classifying music is an imprecise matter.

I agree is very imprecise. Chillout and ambient are good but somes songs are full of atmospheric and mysthic sounds and lack of melodies. Commented Jul 23, 2013 at 18:10

1we are also living in a time of great 'fusion' so from that perspective almost any combination of ideas is possible.– filzillaCommented Jul 23, 2013 at 20:33
Chillout is ok, you could try also some kind of downtempo or deep house stuff.
For example, i can recommend you something like this:

I'm not sure precisely what you're looking for, but I do have a few suggestions. Most low energy dance music is placed under the umbrella called "lounge" music. It's a very broad, unspecific term, but you can use that to help your search.
It's possible you might find something in R&B music. There's a plethora of popular songs from when it was popular back in the early 2000s.
