Scooter are a successful
German dance band, who have sold over 12 million records and have earned 60 gold and platinum awards. The band is currently made up of members
H.P. Baxxter,
Rick J. Jordan and new member Michael Simon. They have a sort of "trademark" sound, with most of their songs featuring some "rap shouting", sometimes featuring a high pitched vocal. Much of their music features elements of a live performance, including the roar of the crowd (a
stadium house technique arguably pioneered by
The KLF and popularized by
Utah Saints), and the echoing sound of H.P.'s voice. Among their more well-known hits are "Ramp! (
The Logical Song)", "Hyper Hyper", "Move Your Ass", "Fire", "How Much Is the Fish?", "Nessaja", "Maria (I Like It Loud)", "One (Always Hardcore)", "Posse (I Need You on the Floor)", "Weekend!", and "Hello! (Good to Be Back)".
