Folktronica or electrofolk 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 rhythms. Folktronica was coined during the proliferation of labels like Manchester's Twisted Nerve, responsible for the emergence of Badly Drawn Boy, but with its origins in Electronica. It was later used when describing the music coming from Kieran Hebden and his Four Tet project in 2001. In 2001, postmodern Pop artist Momus released an album titled Folktronic deliberately exploring (and satirizing) the fusion.
