Folktronica[1] is a genre of music comprising various elements of folk music and electronica, often featuring samplings of acoustic instruments—especially stringed instruments—and incorporating hip hop or dance rhythms, although it varies based on influences and choice of sounds.[1][2][verification needed]
History
Folktronica has been used to describe the music coming from Kieran Hebden and his Four Tet project in 2001.[2][3][4][importance of example(s)?] According to The Sunday Times Culture's Encyclopedia of Modern Music, essential albums of the genre are Four Tet's Pause (2001), Tunng's Mother's Daughter and Other Songs (2005), and Caribou's The Milk of Human Kindness (2005).[5] The music of alternative singer-songwriter Minute Taker has also been described as folktronica.[6][7][importance of example(s)?]
