Rather than being sung, the song's verses are spoken by a speech synthesizer; the song also features a sample of Bill Hicks.[2] The song has been remixed by drum and bass duo Ed Rush & Optical, electronic band Product.01 and Australian dance trio Infusion.
Freeland later reported that the Target Corporation sought to license We Want Your Soul for use in an advertising campaign,[4] which he refused.
Austrian electronic music duo Klangkarussell created a remix of the song. It was originally released in 2011 through the duo's SoundCloud profile before being including in their 2014 debut album Netzwerk.[5][failed verification]
The track was also used with a new video introduction to open the main stages at Boomtown Festival 2017.
