"Lifeforms" is a song by British electronic music duo The Future Sound of London, released as a single through Virgin Records on 1 August 1994.

She said, "I sang my heart out for eleven fucking hours on that record and all that is on it is something that sounds like a sample.

"[5] Brian Dougans, however, has given an alternate story, stating "If it sounds sampled it’s because that’s the way she compiled it.

We were annoyed that we were restricted to the DAT provided [...] strict instruction was given not to deviate from what was given.” [6] An mp3 version of the single was premiered on 22 June 1994 on the New York–based internet bulletin board SonicNet.

In 2014, after some verification, the single was given a Guinness World Record, certified as "the first internet music download".
