The enemy is gathered in the morning chill, the fog whispers and flows down the surrounding hills. They are confident, they have superior weapons and numbers. Then over the hills and through the fog you hear those horns hitting high and low notes in tandem with four foot lamberg drums. Yeah the Celts knew psychological warfare.
I've learned that 99.99% of people who say shit like that usually have no fucking clue about the people they're talking about, let alone any DNA of the people they think they do. I love it when people talk about Celts or Druids. Two near purely fictional creations. The Celts originated in Northern Italy and were fucked to dust by Rome. Maybe a handful made it as far as to the UK, but they sure as fuck didn't outbreed the Picts and Gaels. And they sure as fuck don't make up any cultural influence outside of bad 1980's pan pipe CD's claiming to be of Celtic origin. The Celts were in Northern Italy, around the Alps, and Spain. North were the Gauls, then the Germanic tribes. Two large swaths of land they would have had to have run on foot to flee Rome and somehow make it across to England. I don't believe any of them did. I believe their stories travelled far and wide, and people with no cultural identity because whites are traditionally forbidden a cultural identity adopted them just as blacks adopt the Mystical Negro trope, and other groups adopt the Noble Savage tropes (not meant in the racial vilification way, but rather they are ACTUAL tropes that are overdone in Hollywood in bad movies, Celts, Druids, et al are the same).
BaSH PROMPT what are u talking about. the uk and england who mentioned them. they dont see themselves are celts. the poeple in the video arent english. These are instruments found in Ireland. Not a theory actually instruments pulled from the ground.
Both the Picts and the Gaels were Celtic people. And while there certainly were Celts in the Po valley, that wasn't the origin of Celtic civilisation, or it's center. The Boii didn't flee the Romans and settle in Britain, or at least I've never heard any claim that they did, but there were already Celtic Tribes living in Britain, as well as Gaul, Helvetia, Hispania and Hibernia among several other regions. At least one tribe did flee Ceasar and settle in southern England, but that'd a different story. I don't see how you can claims the Celts were fictional, when there is such widespread archeological evidence proving, not only their existence, but the wide reach of their culture throughout Europe. Similarly, there were were very definitely druids, the Romans were quite clear on that: They invaded Britannia specifically to suppress them.
the evidence of a unfied celtic culture is very scace** and roman -greek propaganda is much** but we do have DNA mitrochondrial and archeology and ethno-liguistics.... its not all hollywood, there has been old books in the bin, and others re-written...even in 2017... with science, were looking for a breakthrough in ancestery-lingustics and archeology** by matching these, then we can get a better picture of the ancient celts.... we know they existed as tribal people- as much as the vikings did.... as they were written about by civilzed peoples (greeks & romans).... also celtic languages still exist in 2017.... as for a **indo european culture or tribe in very ancient history- yes look at DNA & lingustics, there was a **proto indo-european language something not unlike hindi-persian-irish-welsh-italian-greek-russian-english &lithuanian all mixed together... a ancient espertanto** the controversy is usually on migration* as much as it is in 2017... and tribal peoples-religions & languages... we know there is a **ancient slavic culture, so it would not be hard, too imagine a celtic one, both were pagan, both were tribal,both had propaganda from the romans * greeks as savages,dogs, barbaric **philistines**...uneducated terrible demons or worse.... the same goes for many african civlizations or cultures being unkown or forgotten about** cultural hegemony of the conqured or oppressed... hollywood fictional dramas, nearly always revisit the history and embelish it.... fact is always stranger than fiction....
@@brentfisher902 I've never used Minimoog. I'm only really used to FL Studio, but I'm just amazed they had found out about the Phasor so long ago, I always assumed it was in recent history with synthesizers.
Honestly, various bronze and iron age horns harshly hitting those low notes sounds exactly the same to me as oscillating harmonic feedback. It absolutely blows my mind.
Well, that was amazing! I live in North Carolina, USA, but of course everybody in my family immigrated from Ireland and Scotland. It resonated, somehow. Like I'd heard it before. But what made me laugh until I cried were all the comments before mine. You are all such fun!
I would like to hear any of these ancient instrument replicas from the bronze age played inside a tomb like Newgrange. The stone walls must have made amazing acoustics. Certainly there would be music played and chanting, it would be part of the experience. We need to hear it. Just like the cathedrals, slightly echoing sound, the sounds inside the tombs may have echoed, just enough that the walls would be speaking to the listeners.
0:35 In the days when music albums were recorded on magnetic tape there would be tones at the beginning in order to set the tape speed. The first note reminded me of that...
@@frigglebiscuit7484 i read that both stem from the same ancient "proto indo European" culture(this was before "white" or "west Asian" people really existed, migration era i think). the origin of it is exactly between where we would consider "Europe" and "Asia". Celtic influence also spread to parts of India, and vice versa. there is one. its ancient, but there. take what i say with a grain of salt i read it once a long time ago. but West Asian and Celtic cultures are often similar, so this is my current accepted "cannon".
@@scythescythe884 But Kerala is of Dravidian origins, not Indo-aryans. For these instruments, the link is that there are quite simple and many cultures created such instruments along the course of time. Celtic influences extended from the Galates in Anatolia (near today Istanbul) to Ireland and Portugal, but never reached India. The Greeks did however, but that's a completely another story.
@@adrien4317 so maybe some of the more recent links were from the greeks then? I think thats what you meant..? I could also be mistaking indian culture for another asain culture like the pre Mongolian people too as what i read was ages ago.
Imagine hearing this out of nowhere as the enemy war host comes up from behind the hills on horses lining up in formation. Then you hear a unified and fearless grunt after they finish formation followed by a few seconds of silence where you look around at your fellow men to see they have the same fear in their eyes as you. Then after only a mere few seconds of silence, you hear a faint drumbeat in the background. It quickly becomes louder and louder and the tempo increases to a fast tempo. Then you hear a word being shouted by their leader in a language you don't understand that you can only imagine means "Charge!" as it is quickly followed up by another unified grunt from the war host as they start charging down the mountain ready to seal your fate.
A great war is coming here on earth to the likes none has seen. Ww2 was nothing to what's coming. The golden one can prevent it. But the dark hearted ones want it and they will perish.
First recording of loughnashade trumpets in over 2000 years? I've tried to find the last recording from about 10 A.D. but couldn't. Anyone point me to it?
Young recruits would be nervous* Veterans and commanders would not be phased. Roman discipline was something else. Only the Gaelic tribes in Hibernia (Ireland) were known to have truly terrified the Romans; hence Ireland never being a province of theirs or even settled by them.

+Gammel Prutte I'd hazard a guess that the main effect is visual--they just look grander that way, and more closely resemble a pair of actual animal horns, which would perhaps have gone over better, and seemed more proper and respectful, in the spiritual sense, among the Keltoi at the time. On the other hand, you might have played them strictly upright, when in front of the local Laird, while he was trying to make an impression, but rested them comfortably on the ground, when you were drinking around the local cauldron, with your friends. Does anyone know for certain what "Loughnashade" actually means? I'm purely guessing that it has something to do with the god Lug, and I've found reference to the word "nasheed" online, but no specific meaning, other than (maybe) a place-name?
I googled, and it's the lake where the trumpet was found. I don't speak Irish, but I'd guess that the name breaks down: 'Lough' (lake) 'na' (of) and 'shade' (I don't know, but the spelling looks Anglicised). The idea of nasheeds dedicated to Lugh is entertaining though.
I just wish I knew what a nasheed was...Maybe it just means what it sounds like, "Shady lake"? I kind of automatically dismiss something being quite so simple, particularly where different languages are concerned, but then 'Loch' means "lake".
Gammel Prutte They weren't made to have jam sessions with.They were for battle calls,so up in the air the sound traveled much farther and caused a much greater pucker factor with the enemy!!! If you rested them on the ground,the sound wouldn't carry a quarter as far and the wouldn't sound the same because there wouldn't be any "ring" to the tone. Before anyone mentions the Alp horns that are rested on the ground ,they were played at precipice of valleys and the sound carried that way! The region where these horns were played was mainly rolling plains ,I believe they are called moores.Not sure ,poor American here and we have plains and prairies.
