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] The Ashgate Research Companion to Popular Musicology describes folktronica as "a catch-all [term] for artists who have combined dance beats with elements of acoustic folk".[3]
