Scooter in my books have gone from a respectable team to nothing but a bunch of blokes laying down teeny bopper anthems

Scooter's always sucked O_o;
I mean, anyone who releases a CD called 'our happy hardcore'... ick.
ANd it's sickening because they defame our music by implying that they somehow 'share' in hardcore culture... or have talent... or somethign of the like...

but the've sold 10's of 1000's of CDs so they can't be that bad :)
I've neva classed em as hardcore but I still like em.

^^ I always classed 'em as hardcore, and liked 'em, until they went all trance. 'Our Happy Hardcore' was good IMO - just don't take it too seriously.

I saw them 4 the 1st time on record of te year on the weekend - and i jus thought Wtf, that lead singer bloke thinks hes in some Bon Jovi rocc group or somethin' and those keyboard player's were never player those keyboards, only David Gray could shake his head around that much and still play a tune.

why did scooter cancel postpone their trip down under?
Whisper something nice, and ill make you scream twice !!! |
| djyogi |
hahahaha cause they wernt fed enough money most likely. Seriously though tickets will have to sell for like $90 or soemthing if they come down. They charge so much

yeah, their new style really sucks, but their earlier tracks are pretty nice!

I agree w/all the people what said Scooter has always blown huge monkey chunks! I dunno why people evar liked Scooter, but "to each his own" I guess. I'm sure a load of people hate Weird Al and 80's pop music and I love it so whatever :D

So based on that theory Hanson, Kid Rock, and Brittany Spears are the best and most defining/skilled artists in the history of the world? Crypes!

No ... he said "they can't be that bad", not "they must be that good" - there's a difference. Marketing and hype will only get you so far - the music has to be above some minimum standard if it's to sell in that kind of volume, ie "they can't be that bad".

Yes, but if selling tens of thousands of CD's makes you "Not that bad" then selling dozens of millions must make you amazing! :D

So you're saying Kid Rock, Hansen, and Brittany Spears are all WAY above a minimum standard then? IE: Great, amazing, the best?
(Yes, I know that's not what ur saying. Just kidding around... trying to press how great Hansen (Hanson?) is!) :D

I would agree with most of you, scooter have gone way too much commerical, but when they first started they were classic. Have any of you guys seen them LIVE? I have and although i'm not a great lover of they're material, i was impressed big style! they play everything live on synths.

I'm amazed at just how far you're willing to twist my words (and, for that matter, logic and reasoning as well) just to further your argument that Hanson sucks ass - it speaks wonders how passionate you are about the issue. Kudos!

hahahaha scoooter on synths i dont think so. im sure its just a cd being played. As if u could be banging on the synths hard and jumping round and still making perfect sound and not being outa line. Impossible. Its funny though Party Animals did the same. They had a keyboard or 2 and then they had a cd playing. Hey also PUSH this trance group does the same. it was atcually funny watching the clip this guys got the keyboard thumping pressing anything and theres a cd player right on top of the keyboard playing. haha imagine if the cd was scratched.

I'm with toxic here, just why was the thing postponed. Surely your would have booked them before going public?

one of the most appealing features of the hhc scene to me (other than the music) is its pretty much still underground and relatively un-commercialised. Twats like scooter and flip and fill are just dragging it down like the superclubs pimped trance post 97'
**** this commercial bull shit...its about the music, when producers start to change their sound depending on what the market forces are they should all be shot...its not an art from if your making something purely and simply to sell rekids.
sure its a bonus...but your music will suffer if thats the driving force
think prodigy, classic example of the commercial cycle in action...when did they get shit, the day they signed with sony.

i dont know how anyone can knock scooter or say that they were never hardcore or any good. what about songs like 'friends' one of the alltime classic hardcore songs. and i dont care if scooter charged 200 big ones for one of there shows i would pay it. they may say some corny stuff in there lyrics but for **** sake, not too many songs are as uplifting as theres are.....if im thinking about a quite night all i have to do is listen to a few scooter songs and i am ready for a massive night. they have gone tranci but it is still quiality music, who can honestly say they dont like 'the logical song'
from my point of view scooter are the bomb, there not really all that hardcore but they play quality stuff, well most of it is anyway. ill admit they have had a few dodgy ones here and there, but the magority are good. 'and the beat goes on' almost every song was awesome....i rest my case

I'm not defending Scooter by any means, but stop kidding yourself if ANY trance/happy hardcore artist who play live acts (not to mention in the studio) play huge arpeggiated melodies on keyboards. If you pay attention to any electronic music you listen to, you'll recognise that the timing of every note is PERFECT, robotic, inhuman, impossible to replicate using your hands. It doesn't mean a cd player is going at all, in most cases there would be a sequencer which is fed into the synth that triggers the notes. Sometimes they use the keyboards to define which chord shapes are to be used in the melody, or play the very simple elements of the songs, such as strings.
