The new WipEout collection's got Prodigy and Chemical Brothers on the soundtrack

Gamers of a certain age will remember well the soundtrack to the WipEout games. Its dance-fuelled music help define WipEout's 90s cool, with banging beats powering the super fast sci-fi racing. I loved listening to the likes of Cold Storage, Orbital, The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy while playing the original WipEout on the PSX back in 1995.
Fast forward 22 years later - 22 years! - and we have WipEout Omega Collection, a revamp of WipEout HD, WipEout HD Fury and WipEout 2048 for the PlayStation 4. And once again, the soundtrack is a collection of dance tracks, including hits from The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy.
Over on the PlayStation Blog, Sony announced the full, 28-song soundtrack. It's a modern music affair, with some drum n' bass as well as electro-house. The Prodigy track is Invaders Must Die, and the Chemical Brothers tunes are C-h-e-m-i-c-a-l and a remix of XTC by Boys Noize.
