A group having it's era during the mid 1990s.

However becoming popular again early 2000s and also late 2000s

Can anyone give reasons, was the songs featured in films and was their major money pumped into it.

Scooter's actually been around since late 80's as a synth group, but to answer your question, they've always been popular. They look at what techno genre is popular and milks it.

the single didn't chart as well, but it was very popular and well known.

Not that I'm aware of...songs including Logical Song, Nessaja & Weekend which were some of their most well known from 2000s - in music charts back then there would have been a good number of dance releases that charted well.

Their new single - not keen on it.

And the beat goes on was their breakthrough IIRC. I loved Endless Summer tbh, one of the best piano tracks of that era, needed a harder remix without that annoying MC.

Friends, Hyper Hyper, Mikey B used to religiously play them, probably still does.

Only Scooter songs I ever heard at a rave tbh.

I think it was something to do with AATW. The Logical Song and all those other early 2000s hits had remixes by AATWs in house production teams, and on AATWs compilations - Wouldn't be surprised if they were helping Scooter market themselves in the UK as part of their agreements - or just connections in general.

People just liked their stuff I guess. I liked some of their stuff. It was lighthearted and cool for kids!

Have you's heard the new 2020 song? The song sounds ok generally but not the line we don't give a penny....2020. If that wasn't included would have liked the track more.

New Collab with Timmy Trumpet - it's listenable. Parts are similar to Electric Fox style. track title could have been something different - You & I?

I like a few of the hits, like Weekend. The trance B-sides were amazing, too.

Haha, bloody hell I didn't know they'd been around for that long, I was barely alive when that was recorded!

Not a massive Scooter fan, but I respect HPs energy as a frontman. Agree with LeVzi about "Endless Summer", I've got a soft spot for that one too.
