Blackdown's buzz word also.

I think there should be a petition to change the description of this forum - there is more minimal, techno, hip hop discussion than any grime, wonky, garage stuff...other music is other music.

but tbf i don't care

i'd say it was an adjective rather than a genre

True.

FWIW, English folk (esp stuff like / influenced by Longborough morris tunes) is uber wonky at times, all that stuff about music made by anglo saxons all being rhythmically aneamic oompa oompa is balls.

John Kirkpatrick and Martin Carthy = original wonky crew.
