Just read the thread on Cheltenhan Folkfest revamp, and googled up DJ Dolphinboy..

Here's a link re: who he is and what he's up to remixing 'Trad' samples..

I don't like it.
The only track remotely appealing to my primitive minimalist tastes is no. 9. "Break (Fairly Funky Mix)"

Otherwise, I find it all too insipid.
Probably because the actual source recordings he is remixing
are the kind of modern trad folk I don't like.

All too wishy washy, sophisticated cool, bland dinner party soundtrack 'trad' folk..

Anyway, this is just me being a bit grumpy and prejudiced...
