Trivia
- The Drop (Man On Fire Edit) was produced by Hybrid & Harry Gregson-Williams.
- The version of "My Kingdom (Part 4)" that appears on this CD, is actually a Hybrid remix, so the real track name would be: "My Kingdom (Hybrid Y4K Remix)". [1]
- The Drop (Man On Fire Edit) has been used as a cue for the Man On Fire soundtrack.
- Originally, "Plavalaguna" and "Leeloominai" (taken from the movie The Fifth Element which was composed by Eric Serra) were going to be included, but was removed due to licensing difficulties. The tracks were replaced with "In Good We Trust (Soundtrack Edit)", which Hybrid composed.
- Originally, the mix was only supposed to be syndicated to various radio stations, but when Distinct'ive got hold of a copy, they requested the mix to be part of the Y4K series.[1]
