Trivia The voice sample heard throughout the song (saying "You don't stop, you proceed, 'cause this is what you need") was taken from the sample CD "Skip to My Loops" by Norman Cook, also known as Fatboy Slim. The sample can also be heard in the Expert Course theme in the Irritating Maze arcade game.
In the Sonic Frontiers OST , the beginning of this song is referenced all throughout the song used for Cyber Space 4-6 : Fog Funk.
