Building Fire - BagpiperDon plays Fireside pipes

About Me

Building Fire ~ recording started 11Feb09 ~ release goal Memorial Day weekend 2009!
BagpiperDon playing fireside smallpipes recording with local, US and international artists to produce a contemporary sounding Celtic album with strong traditional roots -- then likely to be recycled & remixed into an electronic/DJ/house progressive project. What started as a simple work is quickly turning into a formidable collection of work that will be a lot of fun to make. Keep your eyes & ears here!
(Tracks coming on my SNOCAP store at Bagpiper Don )
