1) Scooter is a German… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with this name:
1) Scooter is a German group, formed by Sören Bühler, Hans-Peter Geerdes, Hendrik Stedler, and Jens Thele, in Hamburg, Germany in 1994. Among their more well known hits are 'Ramp! (The Logical Song)', 'Move Your Ass', 'Fire', 'How Much Is The Fish?', 'Nessaja' and 'Weekend!'.
Originally the group started as a side project in 1994. Their debut single Vallée De Larmes (French for Valley Of Tears) reached #8 on the German dance chart. In April of that year, Scooter played their first live show in Hamburg, Germany, where vocalist Hans-Peter Geerdes began freestyling off the top of his head to an instrumental dance track. At that point, Scooter officially became a group, and Geerdes' rapping would become one of the band's trademarks together with the fact that they all of their tracks are in fact remixes, though often with different titles than the original tracks.
In 2002, Scooter enjoyed somewhat of a comeback, with 6 top twenty UK singles ('RAMP! (The Logical Song)', 'Nessaja', 'Posse (I Need You On The Floor)', 'Weekend!', "The Night', and 'Maria (I Like It Loud)') all charting in an 18 month period (prior to this comeback, they only ever had one top twenty single in the UK, 'Back In The UK').
They have a sort of 'trademark' style of dance, with most of their songs featuring some "rap shouting", sometimes featuring a high pitched vocal, which is evident especially on their biggest hit 'RAMP! (The Logical Song)' (which samples 'The Logical Song' by Supertramp). Much of their music features elements of a live performance, including the roar of the crowd, and the echoing sound of Geerdes' voice.
Scooter's style would also appear to harp back to that of The KLF, especially so with the track entitled "Posse! (I Need You On The Floor) - with a sample which recurrs throughout the work of The KLF. KLF references are also frequently used in Scooter songs. Both bands have released singles with the title "Fuck the Millennium": KLF in 1997 under the pseudonym 2K, and Scooter in 1999. Relatively lenghty and complex samples used in KLF tracks have often surfaced in Scooter tracks, such as the entire opening seconds of the KLF's 3am Eternal being used to open Hello (Good to be Back) by Scooter.
The current band members are: H.P. Baxxter, Michael Simon, and Bastian van Shield (Sebastian Schilde). Former band members were Ferris, Axel Coon, Jay Frog, Rick J. Jordan, and Dirty Disco Youth (Phil Speiser).

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I'm in the field, and I'm with you
Then I'm with you my friend, my mate
My hooligan
My gabber is my best friend, my mate
When I'm in the field, and I'm with you
Then I'm with you my friend, my mate
Yes
My gabber is my best friend, my mate (my mate, my mate)
Everybody
My gabber is my best friend, my mate (mate, mate, mate)
Because our friendship never dies
(My hooligan)
Never on our own because we are one
Getting into trouble ever since we're young
It's time to raise your fist and let them know
Join the revolution, all fucking go
My gabber is my best friend, my mate
When I'm in the field, and I'm with you
Then I'm with you my friend, my mate
My hooligan
My gabber is my best friend, my mate
When I'm in the field, and I'm with you
Then I'm with you my friend, my mate
Because our friendship never dies
(My hooligan)
Because our friendship never dies
Through good days and the bad
Always have each others back
Fuck what other people said
What you see is what you get
It's time to raise your fist and let them know
Join the revolution, all fucking go
My gabber is my best friend, my mate

The song "My Gabber" by Scooter is an ode to the friendship of the "gabber" subculture. Gabber refers to a style of electronic dance music that originated in Rotterdam in the early 1990s. Gabber music is characterized by its fast beats, repetitive bass lines, and aggressive sound. The lyrics of the song are a celebration of the friendship, camaraderie, and loyalty that exists within the gabber community.
The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer considers his "gabber" his best friend and his mate. He feels a deep connection to his friend when they are together in the field. The field could be a reference to the dance floor or the rave scene, but it could also be a metaphor for the openness and freedom that exists within the gabber community. The singer considers himself a hooligan, and he is proud of it. In the context of the song, being a hooligan refers to the rebellious and anti-establishment attitude of the gabber subculture.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "My gabber is my best friend, my mate" several times, emphasizing the strong bond that exists between the singer and his friend. The song acknowledges that the gabber lifestyle can sometimes lead to trouble, but it celebrates the fact that the friends always stick together and support each other, no matter what. The lyrics suggest that the singer sees the gabber community as a revolutionary force that challenges the norms of society and stands up against oppression and injustice.
