    For those of you who don't know who Scooter are, they're a techno band who have been on the scene since 1986. Their new release, Mind The Gap is every bit as good as their previous albums, and is definately worth the price. With the CD, you'll get a bonus CD entitled "Scooter - We Like It Loud Tour - Live". It includes all their best songs played live, and that, in itself is amazing.

    You can check them out at their confusingly laid out website :lol:

    They're not really big over here at all. We just have a friend who watches the BPM (Like mtv but for dance etc.) channel. We found out about scooter. Been hooked ever since.

    Scooter's tracks are ripped, every single one of them. Every melody, every baseline, everything.

    They're the perfect example of complete unbiased unoriginality.

    BTW: They were big here around '96.

    Maybe you are right, and not every song is ripped. But yeah, I don't know all their songs, but every one I *do* know is atleast a cover, if not more.. It just seems like they can't bring out any original songs... or atleast, any good ones..

    The only reason the covers make it big are because they're new versions of old popular songs, so immediately the public picks up on them. There are plenty of great scooter originals, a couple being

    I met the Fast food rockers, they came into my school one day since they knew one of my teachers. :lol:


    And if you think that was bad how about 'Call on me' getting number one, and no, I don't care if the video was good or not. :p

    Those 2 are covers as well... see, that's what I mean!

    The first one covers an old dutch song used by the VOF-boat company from the 1600s or something.. "Laten we drinken, voor zeven dagen lang.. " etc.

    The second one also covers a song I've got the original of...
