Can any one give me some music for a cheorgraphy dance something upbeat

For a number we did we used ACDC's Long Way to the top. Pretty upbeat.
This is Youtube link.

I'm kinda wondering the same thing....I thought I read somewhere that the music had to be "Celtic", but I have seen some great and very deserving choreographies that were done to pop music and won.

thanks that was a really good dance i was thinking more about upbeat bagpipe music or celtic music though sorry i should of been more clearer .

Try Tannahill Weavers or Asasdair Fraser.

I think you mean Alasdair Fraser. Just trying to help in case someone searches that name!

Thanks! sorry that it's too late to edit my typo...

Thanks guys

i found this great one its called jay jay scotland the brave radio mix you should difinily check it out

That one is totaly awesome thanks

I agree the ACDC number(although it has bagpipes in song) would only stand up at some competitions.
Here is another very fast and up beat. It is the Seamus re mix by Keltic Electrika.
We turned it into a cowboy number and again would probably not stand up at all competitions.

According to the rules set out by the SOBHD regarding choreography competitions, Both the music and the theme of the dance should be Celtic or Nautical in nature. Keep in mind that a small riff on the pipes will not make the music celtic and a cowboy dance generally doesn't fit the rules of competition.

HOWEVER... if you are creating a dance for a specific theme, for a performance or for performances in shows or closed events, you can dance whatever makes you happy.

I agree that the Tannahill Weavers are a great resource for music. I find Alasdair Fraser's music either too slow for a highland choreography or else having too few notable changes within the music to create dimensions within the dance ie changes in rhythms, tempo and time signatures within his sets.

I find myself making up my own steps to Wicked Tinkers songs all the time, definitely worth a listen

oh your welcome what are you having for dinner today??

Do you have a theme ? We always do Scottish and another type of music combined. This year we are doing bollywood and highland music. Bagpipes From Baghdad by Eminem with no lyrics is a great one!

How can I find bagpipes from baghdad with no lyrics?

Just google it. I find it repeats the main beat and that is all, over and over and over ......

We Will Rock You - Red Hot Chilli Pipers
is great.. it has no lyrics and is easy to stay in time to!!!
