Scooter is a German dance band founded originally by H.P. Baxxter, Rick J. Jordan and Ferris Bueller with manager Jens Thele, in Hamburg, who have sold over 30 million records and earned 80 gold and platinum awards. Scooter are considered the most successful single-record German act with 23 top ten hits. Although most of the band's early recordings are in the styles of Happy Hardcore or Hard Trance, Scooter have experimented with other dance genres such as Hardstyle and Jumpstyle, and occasionally Hip Hop, Hard Rock and House.
Scooter's trademark sound features spoken or shouted vocals, pitch-shifted chorus vocals and live performance elements such as crowd samples. Among their more well-known hits are "Hyper Hyper", "Move Your Ass!", "Fire", "How Much Is The Fish?", "Posse (I Need You On The Floor)", "Ramp! (The Logical Song)", "Nessaja", "Weekend!", "Maria (I Like It Loud)", "One (Always Hardcore)", and "Jumping All Over the World".
In December 2022, both Michael Simon and Sebastian Schilde announced their departure from the band. Jay Frog substituted for Sebastian in the last live shows.
In 2023, the 7th Chapter was announced, former member Jay Frog returning to the line-up with a brand new member Marcel Neumann a.k.a. Marc Blou.
