Listen to songs below:


Latest Contender into the
multi-ethnic roots/dance floor fusion
arena is this former Edinburgh street busker,
weaving sundry varieties of bagpipe
- Highland, Lowland, Border, Arabic and electronic -
through a succession of layered electro-acoustic soundscapes.
Apart from one funked-up version
of a 400-year-old Donald MacCrimmon tune,
all the work is original,
ranging from the opening Electric Lassieland,
pitting squally electric guitars against a hectic pipe reel
over a dub beat,
through the sinuously sultry,
Oriental sounding Belly Dancer Fae Fife
to the moody, disco-tinged Highland Trance.

Electric fiddle, electric cello, bouzouki, bass and percussion
all feature in the mix,
along with multi-textured synth effects and drum loops and are
sharply defined by both strong melodies
and dextrous rhythm work.
