"We Want Your Soul" is a single by British DJ and producer Adam Freeland. The track made the top 40 charts in several countries,[citation needed][dubiousdiscuss] and won awards for the accompanying music video.[1][unreliable source?] Freeland described the song as being "about the destructive side of consumer culture".[2]

Production

[edit]

"We Want Your Soul" was the first track for which Freeland wrote the lyrics.[3] The song's verses are spoken by a speech synthesizer, and it also features a sample of Bill Hicks.[3] The song has been remixed by drum and bass duo Ed Rush & Optical, electronic band Product.01 and Australian dance trio Infusion.

Austrian electronic music duo Klangkarussell created a remix of the song, released in 2011 through the duo's SoundCloud profile before being including in their 2014 debut album Netzwerk.[4][failed verification]

Use in advertising

[edit]

Freeland stated that the Target Corporation had sought to license "We Want Your Soul" for use in an advertising campaign,[5] which he refused.
