His melodies were euphoric, pulsating, and flat out bad ass. I miss his contributions to the scene.

i could write an essay on why scot project was a key figure in dance but I would say his form was what made him stand out. He had some great melodies, but when you think about say F, or thunder in paradise, the melody is just a static repetition of 3 notes. For melody, SHOKK , flutlicht and alphazone always seemed to be more melody oriented.
Its always been a mystery to me in that every single dj at the time was canning his stuff but he just never really blossomed as an artist in the public view. He is kinda weird and I think that probably had alot to do with it. Every producer always mentioned him as an influence tho. IF you made trance and you were around in 2000, scot project was in your top 5.

who the fuck is "DJ Scot Project"?
A spectacularly cheesy purveyor of Euro-hard-trance who had dreadlocks, a goatee and constantly wore sunglasses. I actually have his album, from the days I used to love hard trance, but even at the time I thought it was massively disappointing. All his tracks had ridiculously over-long breakdowns, usually to the point of being twice as long as the actual pay-off, and invariably featured some cringe-worthy Germanic spoken vocal. So yes, he was certainly an influential factor in the elevation of mainroom mega-trance to new heights of stupidity.

System-j = semi-troll. He says very articulate but suspect opinions that no one wants to call him out on.
