My mate was pissing about on this scooter website - scootertechno.com and found out about this new scooter track apparently called "Plantation" which completly rips off Kaycee - Escape.
Took a classic, albeit cheesy, turned it in to a ing gay pop tune grrrr :whip:.

KayCee used the melody of 4 Voice - "Eternal Spirit" for Escape ;) |

Scooter causes 14 year olds to sing and dance and shout YAY WE LOVE SCOOTER in the streets.
Those 14 year olds grow up to be pikey 18 year olds with 1.2 nova's (no offence to anyone who drives a 1.2 nova, unless your a pikey of course, then i hope you turn your car into a fireball during a failed burnout) and we all know what pikey nova drivers listen to? Yes, Scooter...
Therfore, he should be burnt alive in a big pit along with Flip and Fill and said pikey's. |
i used to listen to scooter back in the day... my friends and i used to blast "fire" and "age of love", cuz those tunes rocked and they still do. if it wasn't for scooter, i'd probably be listening to nelly right now and not max graham :D |

| You all talk as if Scooter is taking over the world, which is far from the case. I personally only know two people who listen to Scooter, one who only listens to their old stuff, like some of you, and the other, who listens to everything Scooter, admitting that it's cheese and that he likes it. What's everyones problem here? Sure, Scooter rips off tracks, but do you really think that any good is going to become of multiple threads that all say the exact same thing? |

The complaint against Scooter isn't that they're gateway cheese; we all know that will always exist, and it's probably better for the scene that it does.
The issue is that they're using melodies that belong to someone else and shouldn't be ripped off into cheap immitations. Crap dance music can exist without borrowing from quality trance; that's just adding insult to injury. |

1. There is no new Scooter track called Plantation. The new single, which will be released May 26th, is called The Night. The starter of this thread probably made the tune himself, just to bash Scooter, like some other ****** did some days ago (claiming that they ripped off Seven Cities).
2. Scooter is a band with 3 members, so it's they, NOT he!
3. Can't we just stop the Scooter-bashing threads? Seems like they are almost as common as all other threads together these days. :rolleyes:
4. I respect people's opinions, and I know that 90% of the members here hate Scooter, and it's fine by me. But when some wankers start remaking other well-known tunes and claim that Scooter did it, that's just too much. FFS you are lame! :whip: |

worst ripoff merchant is josh wink
the guy is a thief
he stole a song from dan bell aka dbd and used it on his song and claimed it as his own. Dan Bell tried to sue but Wink threatened him badly. Don't believe me, find his site, it's all true.
Then he stole french kiss without permission and tried to release it and then the record company that owns it sued him. Messy legal situation and these two are one of many. |

The scooter CD 'Push the Beat for This Jam' is being re-released in the UK soon, and plantation is a bonus track on the re-release. |

If they didn't ask for permission, then it's just wrong, however, if Mike gets his money back, it's fair enough, in my humble opinion :) |
Money isn't everything tho.. |
