SCOOTER

jedan od zadnjih autentičnih samostalnih bandova na svijetu.

~Biografija~

Scooter is a Techno group from Germany. Scooter was formed in 1994 by
H.P. Baxxter, Rick J.Jordan and Ferris Bueller,
who together with producer Jens Thele previously joined forces
as the remix team "The Loop", during the 1980s,H.P. Baxxter and
Rick J.Jordan also scored a series of club hits as "Celebrate The Nun".

"Techno is dead?!"

No other musical genre has been pronounced dead as often as the one which
developed from a whole host of creative people in the UK, Benelux and Germany
at the end of the Eighties.
What was probably the last genuine revolution in music history began with a
drum machine which had previously been rather insignificant
(the Roland TR-909), a few synthesisers and a bass synth which had been a
commercial flop (the Roland TB-303). Whether hated, loved, ridiculed or hyped,
Techno was always one thing in particular: polarising.
This perfectly reflects the history of a band whose name has been a constant
feature on the European Dance scene for 7 years - Scooter. Few bands have
caused as much difference in opinion as the three producers from Hamburg who,
together with their manager Jens Thele, have been causing a sensation in
international charts since May '94.
The road to success of this exceptional band has been marked by countless
Top Ten hits, releases in more than 30 countries world-wide, numerous platinum
and gold selling hits, several music awards, concerts in front of up to
80,000 fans and, finally, sales close to the 9 million mark.
So H.P., Rick and Axel make no secret of their pride in what they have achieved:
"We won't go home until nobody finds us exciting anymore," is the band's
philosophy.
But what appears so simple and well-planned on the outside was, in reality,
a long and winding road which hardly fits in with the concept of our 'at the
touch of a button' society: "You kind of sit there in your basement for years,
producing songs like a madman and they all flop, and just when you think it's
no longer going to happen you suddenly have a Top Five hit throughout Europe,"
is how front man H.P. sums up his impressions from the start of his career when
still with keyboarder Ferris Bueller, and he adds: "And then all the world says,
'hey, these people come straight from a casting, There's no way they produce the
music themselves' - a strange experience."
Back in 1995 Scooter were already proving those critics wrong who thought the
band would be a one hit wonder. After "Hyper Hyper" there were four other
Top Five hits - "Move Your Ass", "Friends", "Endless Summer" and "Back In The UK"
- and Scooter became an established act.
With creativity and a good deal of light-hearted self-irony
("We Are The Greatest", 1998) the trio manage to surprise their fans and critics
again and again - whether by including the "Miss Marple" title theme in a chorus
or by using guitar riffs (as in "Fire" 1997) that would even make the
"Rock musicians against Techno" association of that time doubt the purpose of its
own existence.
Scooter are not only a band but also a way of life and anyone who knows the boys
will know that 'party' is not merely an empty cliché with Scooter.
Their concept of music, however, always allows for thoughtful moments too.
Tracks like "No Fate" (1997), "She's The Sun" (2000) or even
"Dancing In The Moonlight" (from the Album "Age Of Love", 1997) show a musical
diversity which clearly sets Scooter apart from other popular Techno and Dance acts.
So, what's the secret formula behind Scooter's ongoing success? The division of
work is clear: Axel, who joined Scooter in May 1998 after Ferris left, forms the
DJ part of the group and deals mainly with the basic grooves and the latest
underground trends.
H.P. not only writes almost 100% of the lyrics but also often provides the creative
basis for the typical, slightly over the top Scooter choruses. Rick contributes a
conservative music style to the whole thing. He also shares the job of engineer
with Axel.
The team is rounded off by Jens Thele who, as manager of Scooter, also set up
- rather 'by the way-ish' - the Hamburg-based record label Kontor Records from where
he looks after Sheffield Tunes, Scooter's own exclusive label.
Those who have seen Scooter in action on stage know that the unique live atmosphere
of Punk and Rock 'n' Roll is not necessarily exclusive to guitar bands. But somehow
it seems that the actual reason for success lies elsewhere: it is this naturalness,
encapsulating a lust for life in music which, combined with creativity and imagination,
is the central theme running through the now 36 Singles and 9 Albums put out
by Scooter. (17 Albums all in all, if you include the "Best Of...", "Live" and
"Limited Edition" Albums).
Team spirit, fun and disputes and also the experiences gathered in seven years of
touring and working in the studio together have made Scooter is one authentic last-made bands in the charts.

S nama uvijek zabavno...

heeej, ljudi moji dragi! kako ste mi? sve vasi nadam se da ćete ovo pročitati i ostaviti mi koji komentar! Nisam vam dugoooooooo ništa pisala, jer mi se zapravo nije ni dalo,....samo sam ljenčarila ovih dana..i išla na kupanje-a, kako mi je bilo na jednom od kupanja..hmhmistražite sami have fun čitajući!!!

Bila je nedjelja. Antonia (seka),Lavinija (frendica) i ja, bile smo na kupanju u bizovačkim toplicama od 14-20 h. Bilo je super,samo je bilo malo previše ljudi,no već oko 18,19 h su počeli odlaziti. Zašto to govorim hehe? Pa zato što smo mi lude i ne možemo bez svojih gluparija...koje smetaju onim starim babama, koje samo namaču svoje debele guzice tamo hahahaha!! I...gdje stadosmo..ah, da, unutra pored jednog bazena je bio jedan okrugli mali-jacuzzi, iz kojeg smo skakale u ovaj dolje... pošto tamo rade naši ''legići''-redari, nisu odmah reagirali da nas izbace(sigurna sam da su mislili:''ma prestat će one s tim skakanjem'') hehe, ali ne! Mi nismo odustajale. Izvodile smo takve gluparije da smo i ono malo ljudi što je bilo u tom bazenu istjerale iz njega hehehehe...(zapravo sami su dobrovoljno izašli-nisu mogli pretrpjet naše gluparije..) hehe!! I..ja sam skočila zadnja...zašto zadnja? Ove dvije nisu stigle jer...--> Nakon što smo se nagutale, svaka oko 3 litre klorove vode(hehe) došao je taj trenutak.... redar se približavao bazenu u kojem smo mi bile!! Lavinija ga je prva primijetila(ajme koja reakcija) kaže ona: Isuse Kriste, jel to redar ide ovamo????!!!!!!!! Meni je srce počelo udarat k'o ludo, počela sam se preznojavat...ayayayyyy!! Znale smo što nas čeka! Redar je bio sve bliži i bliži...i evo ga došao je pokraj bazena i rekao:''E,cure moje...ajmo van iz bazena'' Mi smo izašle a da nismo ni riječi rekle..bile smo ljute kao niko, pa što nam je to trebalo(govorile smo)!!! Pošto nam je bilo dosadno bez kupanja(neke 3 minute), vratile smo se unutra u bazene. Nikog od redara nije bilo, pa nam je odmah bilo lakše. No, moja pametna sestrica nakon malo uživanja, vidjela je tog redara, koji nas je izjurio iz bazena, i od uzbuđenja pomislila da će nas opet istjerat van, pa je sa povišenim tonom rekla:''eno ga!!! Bježmo van!!'' Nas dvije nismo ni gledale gdje je, nego smo munjevitom brzinom izjurile van!! Kada smo pobjegle pitale smo ju gdje je bio,a ona kaže:''pa na onim stepenicama, pogledao nas i otišao, a ja sam mislila da će doć do nas opet...'' Yoy bilo nam je malo lakše! Ali kako je ona zvučala...kao da redar ide sa pištoljem na nas..hehehehe! I tako...još smo se malo kupale i uživale u našim smiješnim i ozbiljnim temama(više smiješnim), no onda smo se već počele tuširat..bla bla bla..I..kada smo se istuširale, polako smo išle do ručnika. Odjednom iza nas redarčić koji nam je ''zagorčao'' kupanje i njegov lega-redar koji nas inače, bez problema pušta na tobogan(ustvari...svaki put mu se pred nosom(ne doslovno) moramo izredat da bi nas pustio) viče:'' za Petrijevce vlak polazi u 20:2 h, a ja mu odvratim:''ne, nego 20:3 h''. Ayay, pa ne bi ja bila ja, da nešto ne kažem... I...tako mi hodamo do ručnika, a oni lijepo za nama, i kupe smeće...- što im je posao! I lijepo oni dođu do nas i kažu:''bok cure''...bla bla i tako mi pričali...dok taj redar (kojeg stalno spominjemo) pita frendicu, tako ozbiljnom facom...(aaaaaahahahahaaahahaha ne mogu doć do zraka, svaki put kad se toga sjetim, ponestane mi zraka, al dobro za to mi umjetno disanje može dat moj Marko) Dakle..pita ju:'' oćeš ti bit moja cura?''aaaaaaahahahaha krepavam yooooy(pa čovječe dečko ima sigurno 25-ak godina, dobro možda malo manje), a ona onak šuti i gleda u njega(pogled je bio tak smiješan..i onak...ne mogu opisat) i tako...ona se ucrvenila k'o paprika(jooooj ne mogu pisat kolko se smijem, kad se sjetim dok prizora aaaaaaahahaha) nas dvije se smijemo, ne možemo prestat, a on kaže:''šta je smiješno? ozbiljan sam. I stvarno kako je mog'o bit tako ozbiljan(svaka mu dala), a ja..da ju spasim ''muka'' kažem:''joj što ste smiješni, mogli bi vodit zabavnu emisiju, kaže ovaj zašto? A ja:''pa smiješni ste'' a ovaj drugi kaže:''šta sam ja sad rek'o? ja kažem:joj ma super ste, baš ste zabavni(i pri tome se smijem k'o budala)I on ne posustaje, ispitiva on nju stalno, a ona kaže:''pa imam dečka''! E onda je prestao malo..A ja uhvatim priliku( da pokažem svoj brbljavi jezik, hehe) i pitam ih:''šta vi radite cijeli dan? Samo se šetate...ljenčarite..''a oni:''pazimo na vas...''(ups, sad nam je neugodno...)ja kažem:''pa to nam je bio prvi puta...u tom trenu naiđe tata od frendice-Lavinije(Lave) koji radi u bizovačkim!!!aaaaaaaaj koja neugodnost!! I ispričaju njih dvojica malo njemu kako smo mi gluparije izvodile bla bla..I dobro...nije to bilo dugo...ode njezin stari, od tog smijanja i priče, ja ostala u kupaćem dok su se ove dvije već obukle!!
