more about The Castles of Scotland series

A collection of Burns' songs and poems given modern driving rhythms which are guaranteed to raise your spirits and keep your festive parties dancing this Christmas and Hogmanay.

 "RABBIE'S ROCKING THE POPS - The national bard is the focus of a makeover as a new album of modern dance tracks - all set to Burns lyrics - is launched .... Scots musician Martin Treacher hopes his CD will boost the appeal of Burns to a whole new generation - the main-stream pop market, who like to party." SUNDAY MIRROR 16/11/03


"The 12 tracks include a Detroit rap treatment of 'A Man's A Man', a dance arrangement of 'Auld Lang Syne' and a Braveheart-style garage mix of 'Scots Wha Hae'. The key track on the album is 'The Haggis Song' - described as "a Celtic jungle mix" of 'Address to a Haggis'. Martin said: "I wanted to show that Rabbie Burns' songs are timeless"." EVENING TIMES 15/11/03

Martin also states: "I want to try and show how Rabbie is as relevant at the start of the 21st century as he was to people in his own day. I love the idea of Burns being played in pubs and clubs and think the idea would have appealed to him, because he certainly knew how to party" THE EXTRA 20/11/03

"RAPPIE BURNS - Rabbie Burns is about to become the bard boy of hip-hop. The Ayrshire poet has been given a music makeover for club dancefloors. Musician Martin Treacher has created an album of Burns lyrics set to dance tracks - he said: "He's not like a 207 years dead poet because his unique lyrics still strike a chord today. Burns really speaks from the heart and is so contemporary. It's like listening to Eminem"." DAILY RECORD 8/11/03
