Sleaford Mods remixed by The Prodigy

Sleaford Mods X The Prodigy is out on two limited-edition seven-inch singles and is available to stream now https://sleafordmods.ffm.to/goatremix
The G.O.A.T. just got greater. The Prodigy have remixed Sleaford Mods’ collaboration with Aldous Harding, bringing some of music’s most inventive, progressive and uncompromising artistic minds together on one track.
Available on streaming services and two unique seven-inch singles, Elitest G.O.A.T. from the Nottingham duo’s recent Top 10 album The Demise Of Planet X has been reborn as The Prodigy Acid Thunder Remix by Liam Howlett.
The remix not only unites two creative kindred spirits, as both bands share a mix of electro innovation, acerbic lyrics and righteous passion, but also weaves in Aldous Harding’s light-as-a-cloud vocal from the original track, underlining why the singer-songwriter is one of modern music’s most essential voices.
Seamlessly fusing The Prodigy’s pioneering spirit with the Mods’ innovative energy, the new mix ups the elite levels with vicious beats and squelchy synths.
In addition, Sleaford Mods’ own Andrew Fearn has reworked of the track as Extnddntwrk, creating his intense and engaging Broken Prayer Mix of Elitest G.O.A.T.
“Who could ask for more? A Prodigy Remix for Elitest GOAT that turns it into another tune entirely,” declares Mods’ frontman Jason Williamson. “I can’t believe it. Added to that is Extnddntwrk’s under the sensor shift as well. Fuckin’ yes!”
For The Prodigy, the remix was a chance to reignite the artistic bonds between the two groups which first began when Williamson appeared as a featured vocalist on the Essex band’s 2015 album, The Day Is My Enemy.
“Me and Jason collaborated on our tune, Ibiza, a few years back, so it was good to get involved with the lads again on this remix,” says The Prodigy’s Liam Howlett.
“I wanted to hear Jason's snarlin' vocal on some dirty, acid 303, so that’s what I cooked up for my version. Along with Aldous Harding’s great vocal, which comes at a different angle to the original tune… Acid Thunder, baby!”
The Elitest G.O.A.T. remixes are being pressed on to two special, seven-inch singles, which will be available from June 26 and can be pre-ordered now via https://sleafordmods.ffm.to/goatremix.
The first features The Prodigy Acid Thunder Remix of Elitest G.O.A.T., backed by an instrumental version of the reworking on gold-coloured vinyl, and will be available from all good record shops.
The second seven boasts The Prodigy’s version of Elitest G.O.A.T. alongside Fearn’s Extnnddntwrk Broken Prayer Mix on red vinyl and is exclusively on sale through Sleaford Mods’ and Rough Trade Records’ online shops, plus can be ordered via the band’s Bandcamp page.
Additionally, Elitest G.O.A.T (The Prodigy Acid Thunder Remix) is streaming now.
The original version of the track featured on Sleaford Mods’ The Demise Of Planet X which went Top.10 in the UK on its release in January this year.
The duo’s most expansive and ambitious album to date, alongside Aldous Harding, the record boasted a rare guest appearance from former Life Without Buildings frontwoman Sue Tompkins; Game Of Thrones and Severance actress Gwendoline Christie’s musical debut; vocals from acclaimed Black Country duo The Big Special; plus collaborations with soul singer Liam Bailey and grime MC Snowy, who both hail from Sleaford Mods’ hometown Nottingham.
Andrew Fearn and Jason Williamson are now continuing to bring The Demise Of Planet X to audiences around the globe.
Following their successful UK and Eire tour at the start of 2026, which concluded with the duo being joined on stage at London’s Brixton Academy by Sue Tompkins, Snowy, Liam Bailey and Gwendoline Christie – alongside a one-off live collaboration with electronic icons Orbital – the band are set to head to New Zealand, Australia and North America, before returning to Europe in the summer.
