Actually I didn't even notice you had forgot an 'n'.. :D I was just wondering (and still am) how we've been conned, in your opinion.. What harm have they caused?

And, I still don't think Scooter are any con artists. :lol:
:rolleyes: This is a signature.

I can't imagine that Scooter doesn't ask for permission about using things from other artists...


This is not 100% right. They ask if they do a real cover, that is right (like "Stripped" or "Pulstar"). But if they begin to use only one part of a song (the refrain of "All I wanna do" for example) or put parts from many different songs together (like in "Behind the cow") then they often do not ask for permission to use it, because they change one or two notes and then they donīt call it a ripp-off, they say it is "inspired". So they think they do not need a permission. Then it is stealing in my opinion.
Good examples of this kind of music making with no permission:
- "Weekend!" (uses the mellow of a Push-Track, Push himself was and is still very angry that Scooter took it without asking him).
- "Jigga Jigga" (3 stolen mellows without any permission!).

Sorry for being this kind of offtopic but I wanted to make this permission-thing clear ;)


OK, i will listen very carefully to Weekend, i thought they only used samples from Weekend from Earth and Fire..... :wink:
I stay here, have to eat now :? be back as soon as possible...


Hmm, i dont seem to have the original Weekend :? only a club radio mix, so i can't judge properly i quess....sorry :?

If KLF is really ultimate idol for Scooter then they must burn their next cash income like big idols KLF which burned a million pounds of their money they earned during their KLF period. But I doubt Scooter would ever do this. :wink:

The track from Push is not "Weekend". The track is called "Strange World (2000 Remake)". Scooter used the mellow during H.P.s verses before the refrain. So "Weekend!" has two "borrowed" mellows: the refrain (which is mentioned in the booklet) and the vers-part (which is not creditet in the booklet).
So listen to "Strange World (2000 Remake)" and you will know what I mean ;)

I only learned about this track at the concerts this year when the Push track was played by Frankie - I have since bought the an EP with 8 mixes of this track from iTunes to listen to it properly. This is from the original radio edit - about 1min 10 seconds
