Virgin Interactive Entertainment has announced that Hybrid have composed the soundtrack to Lotus Challenge, VIE’s hugely anticipated PlayStation 2 racing title due to be released this Autumn.

"When we started work on Lotus Challenge we decided that the game needed a sleek, futuristic, soundtrack, as a lot of games these days employ half-baked, Japanese death metal tracks." added Virgin Interactive, "Hybrid immediately sprang to mind, as they are the masters at creating emotional, string laden, dancefloor friendly tracks with an edge. Music that goes hand in hand with Lotus Challenge. Hybrid are the real deal"

Inspired by Lotus Challenge, Hybrid have created a brand new track, entitled 'Joyrider', which has become the signature theme to the game. In addition, Hybrid have also remixed four tracks from their successful and critically acclaimed album ‘Wider Angle’. The chosen tracks will capture and enhance the atmosphere and sheer adrenalin rush of the game. 'Joyrider' and the new remixes will be exclusive to 'Lotus Challenge'.

"...you could say we are PlayStation fans...we’re stuffed really, because they’ll send us this game and we’ll have to have a go; then they’ll be responsible for the late arrival of the second album!" - Chris Healings , Hybrid
