There are other people using electronic effects in folk. Mad Meg (all then about 16) were using distortion pedals on electric guitar about 8 years ago. There was a chap in the singarounds in Rochester Sweeps this year with a thing a bit like an artist's palette that had slept with a stylophone doing very interesting electronic drones.

I just wish I knew how.

Remember how revolutionary we all thought folk-rock was when it started.

But don't forget the roots either.
