"Other New Age artists, such as Enigma, incorporate Celtic themes into their music alongside African and Native American influences."

I know quite a bit about Enigma, and I don't think there is any Celtic themes at all in the first place. Is anyone able to list one single Enigma song that seems Celtic? Mike Oldfield I can understand, but Enigma? -- Andylkl ^(talk) 11:48, 5 November 2005 (UTC) reply

I wouldn't characterize Afro Celt Sound System as New Age, and it sounds like Enigma might not be thus categorizable either. But then, I doubt the two are similar enough to make a seperate section, and I don't even know what that would be. Is there a better place for Afro Celt here?

I'd also say that while Shooglenifty may use a loop here and there, I really wouldn't class them as electronic at all. The main drive of pretty much every track is the live/instrumental parts and while the loops (when used, which is rarely) add a bit of extra feel you could easily remove them and still have a full sound.

Perhaps it seems weird to you quoting Alan Stivell in different sub-articles; but if you look closely at his work, you notice that he has actually worked in different fields as Ethnic, Folk-rock, Jazz-rock, Pop-Rock in Breton, New-Age, World, Symphonic, Hip-Hop, etc. as much as the other artists you are speaking of. He is perhaps the only one who has worked in these different fields, as he his the only one to have actually done a Pan-celtic fusion.

This is the closest cleanup template I could find - this article looks informative, but it's written in a colloquial and opinionated music press style. Remember that when putting opinions in an article, you should be able to show that even the opinions are verifiably notable - David Gerard 19:58, 2 September 2006 (UTC) reply

• The tendency towards fusion has been most common in communities of the Celtic Diaspora, and the United States in particular as immigrant Celtic populations were assimilated into larger societies, but it has gained some acceptance in the Celtic nations as well. {{fact|date = January 2007}}
• Beltaine's Fire ( Emcee Lynx's band) combines a rock-hip hop fusion reminiscent of Rage Against the Machine or The Roots with Celtic-inspired melodies. {{fact|date=January 2007}}

In the article, Alan Stivell is quoted once among the musicians who have melted Celtic music with Rock. It is forgotten that he has been the first who really fused the musics of the Celtic Nations. Celtic Rock itself was made by him as well as by Horslips, yes it's true. But also, Alan Stivell has been one of or the one who experimented first other mixes with World-music and New-age (1971), Electronic (1991), Hip-hop (1995), etc. It would not be fair to leave him only in the Celtic harp chapter. 82.126.56.145 ( talk) 16:31, 11 September 2008 (UTC) reply

Horslips where the first group to be coined Celtic Rock. Why aren't they included in the Celtic Rock section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.51.168 ( talk) 16:48, 24 March 2013 (UTC) reply

The introductory sections of this article are very US-biased. From "The oldest musical tradition which fits under the label of Celtic fusion originated in the rural American south" (not only bonkers but also unreferenced), the whole theme of these paragraphs is to exemplify the influence that European folk musics have had on American popular music. That could be an interesting topic, but it isn't what the title says.

It then goes on to claim mostly European bands in the examples, most of whom would probably wince (polite description) at being described as "celtic fusion". What purpose does the article have? -- Monxton ( talk) 14:12, 31 October 2020 (UTC) reply

I believe the rest of the genres deserve their own pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.54.195.214 ( talk) 17:13, 2 February 2021 (UTC) reply
