Folk is music of the people for the people û in both origin and best sense of
the word pop-music. While traditional folk conserves
authentic snapshots of our past, ôFuture Folkö sketches a friendly utopia of the
here and now. This compilation does not lay claim to
completeness, does not want everything with its 14 tracks, but can do so much
more instead û amongst other things, give a warm
welcome to the morning in these cold times. Without regard for stylistic or
label-political limits ôFuture Folkö comprises a
collection of magical talents, the very opposite of a Checker-Guide To
Folktronica & Weird Folk: a child of love for music
and progress û an essence of the future.
"Future Folk" features some of the major player of the folk meets electronica
scene such as The Books, caribou, Postal Service,
Animal Collective and many more.
Call it folk, call it weird folk, nu folk or
folktronica, call it whatever you want, for as the legendary Big Bill Broonzy
once put it: ôAll music is folk music. I ainÆt never
heard a horse sing a songö.
