Hotride was the seventeenth single released by the British electronic music trio The Prodigy on 1 November 2004. It was the third single from the album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned and did not enter the UK charts as the CD was released in EP format with 3 additional 'b-sides' and so did not conform to chart regulations.

[edit] Music video

The single's music video was directed by Daniel Levi, but was rejected by Liam Howlett due to the amount of pointless violence.

The video is concentrated on a group of Korean children, going on rampage in Seol. The kids kidnap a policeman and a woman before heading to an office building, where they knock down the guards and destroy the offices. Then, the kidnapped woman escapes and calls the police. An anti-terrorist squad enters the building and catches the kids.
