If you really plan to start a new compilation series, at least give it anoter name. "Posse Drums" was started by Rotty.
Maybe we can have a poll to choose a new name.

One compilation a year, if you ask me...

POSSE DRUMS ISN'T DEAD!


I may leaved the forum for personal reasons but the series won't die. It will be continued by me. I really thought to stop the compilation. One reason is for sure the last Episode where only a few bunch of people joined. I had also in mind to give the scepter of "my project" to some one else. But a decision is made: I will continue this project.

Posse Drums was just a small project at the beginning. I collected over the years many tracks by scooter fans and burned the best tracks on a CD. After four CD's I had the idea to start a contest where fans can send me their tracks. I made a compilation of it and publish these as download for all. But before Posse Drums was born, I started the Hands on Scooter contest. You remember that? This compilation with 13 fan remixes was very popular. Even 'illegal' MP3 sites released the compilation on their pages. I never thought that the Posse Drums series could be so popular. But this was just at the beginning. When you look on the release dates you see that the period for a new volume became longer. Also the number of artist which joined the series was shrank over the years (the lowest level was reached on the last volume).


What we need is a re-start for this series. The time where we can release 3 volumes each year are over. You must accept this. The artists aren't professional producers. They are just normal people who doing music as a hobby, not to earn money. I can't await every second month a new track from them. The pressure of time would be too high. The quality of the tracks would going down. That won't work. That's the reason why we should stay with the current release strategy. Two Posse Drums in a year are enough.

I really wanted to know which ideas you've got.

PS. Some people doesn't have respect. For example, the first comment after the introduction by Mev. Maybe this sounds arrogant but without me, a compilation like this wouldn't exist here. The other thread had also a comment which wasn't nice. But the person who did that believe that he must be third member of Scooter...

when it comes to quality of the tracks, i indeed do doubt its a matter of time.

speaking of me myself, it took me 3 months to create an average trance tune, but later 3 days to produce a real banger.
its only a matter of attitude towards the "hobby" of producing, nothing else! 4 posse drums episodes shouldnt be a problem, but after all u ve gotta decide.

Quoted from "iCelebrate"

I suggest we call the next one "Gee Tee Age and Other Scootertechno Members"

Other? You're not even a "Scootertechno member"

Quoted from "Ramland"

I don't see myself as a third Member of Scooter. I don't think I could do that.

This third member thing is dedicated to a another person, not you.
