Guitartronica

Guitartronica is a term used to describe a type of music made by guitar players using digital Music sequencers that were traditionally used by Electronica artists. This type of music making has been made possible by advances in inexpensive digital recording software or Digital Audio Workstations, (DAWs). Electronic music or Electronica has traditionally been the realm of keyboard players and midi programmers. The advent of digital amp modeling and inexpensive guitar effects processors with USB recording interfaces has opened up the tools used by Electronica artists to guitarists.

Guitartronica is similar to Big Beat in many ways but is more guitar-centric.
