There has been an interest for some years in Scottish dance music circles to blend traditional tunes with rhythms found more often in contemporary dance clubs. Cappercaillie even had a hit record a few years ago, and bands such as Shooglenifty and the Afro-Celt Sound System are popular in the more adventurous dance venues. The young band of musicians from the highlands of Scotland are continuing the trend with this CD of dance music. The music of this band cooks along nicely, with strong bass and drum lines anchoring the melodies with a choppy rhythm guitar. They are not constrained to rigidly keeping the 16 bar structure of sets of tunes, often adding bridging sections before launching into another tune. It is all interestingly and skillfully done.
