Amazon.co.uk Review
After brief brushes with the UK chart in the mid 1990s, Scooter retreated back to their native Hamburg to carry on producing their trademark Eurotrash-pop and to concentrate on their native mainland European fan base. Push The Beat For This Jam collects together some of the highlights from those 'missing years'. Like their best-known track "The Logical Song", the collection is filled with tracks that are adored in the discos of the Azores. Featuring samples from familiar sounding tunes, the tracks are instantly catchy but also totally trashy. On their cover of Billy Idol's "Rebel Yell" and on the dreadful "F**k The Millennium", the guys delude themselves that they're the hard guys of Euro-pop. Instead they just sound like X-Rated Aqua impostors. With samples of crowds cheering, and the rapping of their nonsensical lyrics, there are also distinct echoes of the KLF and The Shamen. However at least the KLF were always 'tongue in cheek' but on the bizarrely titled "How Much Is The Fish?" Scooter seem to be seriously lacking irony. Push For The Beat For This Jam is recommended listening for, souped-up XR-3i drivers, who like to play music 'loud' on their car stereos.--John Galilee

Customer Reviews

Is Sheffield part of Hamburg
First reviewer stated that Scooter was from Hamburg. He is actually from Sheffield in the UK! The music is quite common in Germany as happy trance. It the type of dance music that you can listen to once, then come back a few years later and it still sounds fresh.

Euphoric
k let me start by displaying the fact that the author of the last review can barely spell. I quote:
"Friends, Endless Summer, Back In The UK, Let Me Be Your Valentine, Rebel Yell, How Much Is The Fish, F*ck The Millenium and Aii Shot The DJ are a collection of the cheesiest tunes you'll ever here."
notice the "here" not hear. Regardless however this is, as he says a relatively cheesy album with the high pitched voice uesd a number of times but that still does not mean that this is a poor quality set of dance music. Quite on the contrary it gives a whole new genre of trance that I have actually strived hard to find. It may not last more than a week playing on repeat in itunes but leave it a month and you will come crawling back for the euphoric experience.

SCOOTER FOREVER
Scooter are and have been my favourite band since i was very little and heard one of their tracks. I have 10 of their albums, including push the beat for this jam, the first one with only 1 disc and having that i still brought this album..the double disc one..because i am a HARDCORE fan of erm and i wanted to hear the b sides and live versions. Recently i also brought the dvd named 'the whole story' Which is Fanatstic..but this cd would deffiantly sum up scooter to any one, their Happy Hardcore sounds and beats are F.A.B...If you want to be a HARDCORE fan like myself and may others out there..you need to trace back and buy the other cd's..which will cost ya seeming there are alot..but my favorite track of scooter..would deffiantly be the logical song...because i first heard it on top of the pops and the two women on it were FIT.and it sounded amazing, plus the video of it is class....so ..to all scooter fans...BUY IT...and remember Scooter..for their tracks...and H.p baxxter's wicked cloths..xxx
