Bagpipes are the instrument of manly man.

Mike Dragon - Infinity 2001 (Fridge vs Vectrex Remix) is superb, a really uplifting trance tune with bagpipes in it, works VERY well indeed!

Scooter did a bunch of songs with bagpipes in it back in the day

check out their "Wicked" album

Scooter - I'm Raving has bagpipes in it, some others too

There's a nice celtic fiddle on Celtic Cross - Darshannon. It's kind of psy-trance. Found it on a six degrees comp, it's very nice.

Irish/Celtic Trance you say?

Here it is:
Lo fi
Hi Fi
Download

This seriously is like the best "trance with different instruments" song EVAR. I love it. Great melodies.

Yes, I'm obsessed.

Chicane - Saltwater

BTW, have you heard of Italian bagpipes? They are less annoying than their Scottish cousins. They're most like clarinets or saxophones.

I thought the bagpipe was scottish?

Don't no if this is what you're looking for but a couple of song from Loreena mckennit have an irish influence, especcialy "Loreena mckennit- Bonny portmore"

Posted by LordCrimson on May-12-2004 15:49:

I think 29 Palms has a couple songs or remixes that have bagpipes in it. Don't know the names right off hand though.

Anyone know where I can get some piper's laments? This is lone pipers playing. Preferably irish pipes. I.E. Like whats in the background on the sad bits in braveheart <---- and before anyone gets smart I know in braveheart they were scottish pipes.

Bagpipes are sued throughout Europe, but the Scottish ones are the most famous.

I hope it's not too cheesy

Well, this is more Scottish-influenced, and they're going out with a bang, but here ya go:

Orbital - Bigpipe Style

There's your BAGPIPE BEATS for ya, laddy!

Give this one a try, a hardcore track from 1996:

DJ Ruffneck vs Mikey B - Doodlesex

The Dutch word for bagpipes is 'doedelzak'. 'Zak' is Dutch for 'sack'. More than one sack = sacks. Sacks sounds like sex. 'Doedel' in Dutch is pronounced the same way as 'doodle' in English. Hence 'Doodlesex'.

Not very fashionable for todays electronic music, but whatever, it has bagpipes in it!

Posted by Torley Wong on Jul-20-2004 20:01:

That's a great story that has my interest piqued! Thanks for sharing.
