indie folk

Bands that combine indie rock/pop and 50's/60's folk music of artists such as Bob Dylan and Nick Drake. Early artists include Will Oldham and Elliott Smith. There are a lot of indie bands that have folk influences like The Shins and Death Cab for Cutie, however these bands are not considered indie folk since they are not traditional folk bands due to the use synthesizers and keyboards and strong elements of other genres such as grunge, power pop and psychedelic rock.

Bright Eyes, Elliot Smith, The Dodos and Iron and Wine are all indie folk artists.

river folk

a lost soul, whom dwells near rivers/lakes. These mythical persons created out of the sledge of the saginaw river have grown in numbers the past decades. they are harmless, often have a strange odor to them, and wild beast-like hair.

Ahhhh, I'm sure that river folk could point me to the nearest river!

Turbo-folk

Turbo-folk is a style of music which is popular in the Balkan countries such as the former Yugoslav states, Romania and Bulgaria also known as Pop-folk . It is a mixture of Pop, traditional folk music, Roma/Gypsy music and oriental music.

Mainly sung in Serbian but the other former Yugoslav states have their own variations of turbo-folk too.

Performers: Dragana Mirković, Ceca, Lepa Brena, Jelena Karleuša, Vesna Zmijanac, Goga Sekulić, Viki Miljković and many more.

In the press turbo-folk can be seen by traditionalists as tacky, embarrassing and low quality music which to some people one can choose their own music of choice.

"I am not your wife tonight, this is not her bed, I am your live doll and your my sexy buisness man". That is an example of a Turbo-folk text.
