  • 'Loretta Young Silks' samples Bill Withers' 'I Wish You Well'.
  • 'The Fuel' samples 'Following Kirwell' and 'Irina's Chase' from the original 'Gorky Park' film O.S.T.

  • 'Blue Movie' samples 'Canaan's Land' (traditional) by The Keynotes.
  • 'Small Town Witch' samples 'Nightclubbing' by Iggy Pop.
