"We Have Explosive" is a song by The Future Sound of London, released in 1997. It is a digitized mix of big beat drums, mono-tone basslines, aggressive guitar stabs, robotic voices and clinical electric beeps.

The single

The successful standout single from FSOL's "Dead Cities" LP was, as with other FSOL singles, released with a plethora of remixed versions of it. It is a harder, more techno-oriented song, which is rare for the band; the track became well known to many after being featured in the 1996 hit video game "WipEout 2097". The song is the first track on the soundtrack, remixes of it were also featured on the other versions of the soundtrack; it was used in the intro sequence, menu screen and in-game.
