SCOOTER
               SCOOTER


1.GENERAL INFO
     Scooter are not just a rave group,they are considered as the ultimate rave idols.The original Scooter line-up is :H.P.Baxxter, Rick Jordan and Ferris Bueller.Latelly Ferris Bueller left the band after the song  No Fate. A new guy joined the band:Axel Coon, a former studio assistant   of Scooter. His first appearance was  in the video for How Much Is The Fish.

2. HISTORY OF THE GROUP
H.P. BAXXTER     Although widely known from the print and TV media, the history of the band RICK JORDANScooter deserves a few words here. Back in the way 80s, H.P. and Rick got together FERRIS BUELLERunder the name Celebrate The Nun. Their music back then can best be described as future pop. This creative duo with the spacy sound achieved early success. The high point came when Celebrate The Nun broke into the "Top 5" of the American Billboard Dance Charts.H.P. also came into contact with DJ Jens Thele with whom he worked at "edel company", a record company in Hamburg.They all formed the remix team "The Loop"  in summer '93.
 
 
 3.THE PAST
 THE ORIGINAL FORMATION The first album of SCOOTER was "And The Beat Goes On".Those words became not just a title but also a way of life for million people in the 90's.Hit after hit has been pumped out by H. P. Baxxter, Rick Jordan and Ferris Bueller.The beginning was fantastic with the single "Hyper Hyper" which released in autumn of '94.The critics about this song were very cruel,although the answer of SCOOTER was the fact that "Hyper Hyper" sold over 700,000 copies in Germany alone. They have become one of the world's most successful dance-techno bands. Hyper Hyper, Move Your Ass, Friends, Endless Summer and Back In The U.K. were all huge hits, with sales over 3 million worldwide so far.Trough all these years from 1994
to 1998 they've released much more hit singles and albums."Let Me Be Your Valentine" and "Rebell Yell" in 1996."I'm Raving" and "Break It Up" in 1996-1997."The Age Of Love" and "Fire" in 1997.
And "No Fate" in 1998.That was the last song that the group created with his original line-up.

4.THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE
TODAY'S FORMATION
 
 As i write you before,the line-up of the group has changed.Axel Coon has been added and Ferris Bueller left.The new work of the group with the new formation
was presented in the summer of 1998 with the release of a new single called "How
Much Is The Fish".It reached up to number 3 in the German Charts and they also released the Video Clip of that song.I'm sure that there are much more to see and hear about SCOOTER in the future.
