Quoted from "Traxx"

I do what I want, and don't give a damn about what others think.
Scooter can do that too - they can make what THEY like, and not what they think OTHERS will like.

HP said it so nice in Jigga Jigga - "if you love me or you hate me, I don't give a damn" - but it looks like they do give a damn now, as they're more commercial than ever.

Quoted from "bigswano"

Hardstyle's been popular in Australia long before UTROTT.

Yeah - a combination of TSTE, WBTN and BTTHJ would rock!
Maybe with some good sampled melodies, BUT from the 70's and/or 80's, and not recent. AND the rest as own and original as possible.

Quoted from "Unknown"

Personally, I think UTROTT blew us away. number 2 in the charts, shame it didn't stay for longer. let's face to, dance is a niche market, its not something really old people will listen to. We should be proud of wherever they get in the charts.

I really don't mind ripping, even now I'm finding more and more samples. Today I found the sample noise that comes after HP says "how do i get off the bus?" I love scooter and what they do, that's why I'm here. The day I stop liking them I'll leave.

I'd like a slow track after the next single release, ballad or house i hope. Something completely different to LUT but still as hard. I'd like to see a move towards TUAO again

but for sure the MONEY is the biggest shi1t on Earth. distroyes everything music hindustry,art,peace,love and not to mention human behavior. Now back to the topic: I WANT SCOOTER TO BE SCOOTER!!

I still think the whole ripping issue is still too inconsequential to worry about. I'm failing to see any reason why we should take offence to Scooters notorious tendency to sample. How does this method affect us in the slightest? I can see a few artists being a little disgruntled about their tracks being converted into something more musically friendly, and even going as far as to take credit for it, but to see 70% or so of this little community complain about it monotonously just doesn't seem to fit into the category of logic.

I want Scooter to be scooter? What does that even mean? It makes a little but of sense in the context of a particular formula used to compile a track, but what does it mean in this specific instance? They've gained the reputation of being the artists that rip conspicuously, and they've been doing this for a while now-- so why not just accept the fact that this is Scooter? They've obviously opted to utilize this musical technique because there is some monetary benefit in it; something to gain. I need not mention that they've generated quite a bit of fame from it.

You've been pleased with everything so far, right? I mean to a certain extent, for there a few albums that we could all do without.

Indeed. Money is an inanimate manifestation of the Devil. I get that. However, pleading Scooter to relinquish their business plan just to magically change the minds of thousands of critics is just a pipe dream. How on earth do you expect them to remain mainstream if they aren't appealing to it? I'm detecting a paradox permeating the minds of a few members. You want them to be successful, but in order to obtain that, you're encouraging to abandon their current paradigm for something a little less promising. You are basically asking them to put their stardom on the line; risks a band like Scooter cannot afford to make. The title of the new album says it all.

I love scooter and what they do,

Same here! Well, most of the time... Ha.

Quoted from "Almanac"

Lucullus was great! Make more tracks like that and Scarborough reloaded, and you have yourself an original and great hard dance album.

Quoted from "Almanac"

For the next album, I hope it stays more original as well. I love the hardstyle sound, but Scooter needs to make their own. For example, Lucullus was great! Make more tracks like that and Scarborough reloaded, and you have yourself an original and great hard dance album.
