For me it isn't a matter of whether specific instrumentation can go
along with my idea of what electronic music is, but whether the piece
is musically solid as a whole (whatever that means).  If you like it,
you do.  What you describe does sound wack, but i've listened to a lot
of beautiful guitar work amist electronic music (em:t undark 2296 is
highly recommended).
