Music for Hogmanay, anyone?

If you're thinking this is to New Year's Eve party music what the Trans Siberian Orchestra is to Christmas music, you'd be mistaken. This is not celtic rock or rave music, it's celtic tunes done on electrical instruments instead of acoustic ones.

That being said, there's still quite a bit of "crunchy" synthetic hip hop drum loops. Some of the tunes are close to "driving" and what an American ear might consider party music, and some of the tunes have a spacious, sing along feel that you might come across down the pub.

The point of the album was to provide background music for Hogmanay parties in Scotland. It's modern technology meets Scottish drinking songs. It's fabulous.
