I think they are just giving up on reaching good chart positions, they do what they want. People on this forum are just pissed off because of the bad positions.

Unfortunately, the commercial sh1t that makes up the top spots is the music that sells most.
And whether we like it or not, Scooter needs commercials success if they want to stay where they are - or rather, where they were with JAOTW.

To stay where they are? They could reach good positions in 2009 with fast and hard songs which didn't sound commercial and had some nice melodies as well. Commercial cr@ps have already been existed by then.

That's why I said where they were with JAOTW. At the top, no1 in the UK. They want to be on the top.
But it doesn't mean they don't do what they want to, or concern about the bad charting nowadays.

I don't know why UTROTT failed, but personally I think the album as a whole was too much of the same. Less diversity. And I think JAOTW had more catchy and better singles, at least regarding The Question and I'm Lonely.
UTROTT also had more recent and known ripps, as I know, and it sounds more rushed to my ears.

The World's coming to an end, and they start again! :D
I think that "shock" of 6 flops in a row isn't too bad. You know how it feels then if you're not successful all the time. The better it feels if you have another top ten hit! :D

True, after a long time of flops, a top 10 feels better than if you got top 10's all the time :P

Scooter have 4 top ten singles over the last 5 years:

08.2007 - The Question Is What Is The Question? - 5
11.2007 - And No Matches CDM - 9
04.2008 - I'm Lonely CDM - 8
10.2009 - Ti Sento CDM - 10

So I think it's time for a new top ten single of Scooter.
We badly want Scooter on VINYL! ;(

Indeed it is. But the 2-track single needs a B-side, or else I doubt people will buy it.

+1 :!:

And they have to release the 1st single of the new album atleast 3-4 weeks before the album, so that the impatient fans have to buy it, also when being a 2-track, and not just wait for the album to have the song when its released the same day. The promo purpose of the single would work in that case and give the album a bigger boost, because the impatient fans make the single chart and more people get to know it, andthan it will chart better if being the right track, and will be more promo which would result in beter album sales if all goes logically ;) But a 2 track with a Bside on it is a must, otherwise it will again not work!

mostly buying the single for the b side is the biggest reason to buy it, we all have the single in its original and sometimes the same form on the albums, but is the b side were you see the real new track, so i think scooter should do them again, even if the experiment with sounds and style to see how they go, its a good way to get results IMO

B-sides were a hige part of the singles before, but now that they're doing 2-tracks only, the B-side have become the major reason, especially for the pre-album singles which are the ame as the album versions.
No one will buy those if they only get an average remix, when they just need to wait a bit and get the single on the album. They need B-sides to make the singles interesting.

To reach the top, I think, Scooter always concentrate on choruses and main melodies, that is not good. The real Scooter people like is in their couplets with their effects, transitions, bassline and lyrics. I'm getting bored of all those long choruses like in Ti Sento or Nessaja. By the way the second Ti Sento couplet lasts less than 15 seconds - it's shorter than short. When I heard it for the first time my heart stopped for a while and I forgot to breath as I was caught with the wave of extreme energy at the moment when HP starts suddenly scream his second couplet lyrics - but the moment I was about to get caught by euphoria was interrupted by the boring chorus.

I hope some day I will hear a single with a prolonged couplet and a shortened chorus.
Riding with me is my friend R.J.Jordan,
Knowing the rules aint part of his program,
Finding the right tune that fits the track,
Might be pretty hard cuz he's f_cked on crack!

Start the match and find the station
Reach what you can and party the nation,
A? Hey! Whatcha gonna say?
I automate the sequence and speed for my getaway
Take it to the edge, there's nowhere to hide,
And call up the crew; let's go for a joyride!

Let's go for a joyride!

I would like to see more music and less sampled choruses, or at least shorter. With TBMU, it's like they focus only on the known choruses they sampled, and not so much on the music.

Agree. It really unnerves me to have short couplets and long choruses. Much worse is the fact that they overdo choruses in the last time, imo. They also could have choruses without voice like The United Vibe. Or choruses with only H.P --> We bring the noise. Something like Imaginary Battle would be cool, too. The HPV hasn't got so much to say... :P
