Notes
|pos=right | filename = CauticWindowHumaniodMustNotEscape.ogg | title = "Humanoid Must Not Escape" | description = Album version, as it appeared on Compilation | format = Ogg
- "AFX 114" has the same drum rhythm as "Phlange Phace", which can be found on Aphex Twin's early Xylem Tube EP and the Classics compilation.
- "Fantasia" allegedly contains samples from Seka's Fantasies, the same pornographic film that was sampled for "Come on You Slags!" from James' ...I Care Because You Do album.
- "Italic Eyeball" samples Julie Andrews as Maria von Trapp in The Sound of Music as she sings "Perhaps I had a wicked childhood" (forwards and in reverse)
- "Humanoid Must Not Escape" features distorted samples from the David Bowie film The Man Who Fell to Earth (the "Let's fuck!" and "Yeah yeah!") and the arcade game Berzerk.
- "We Are the Music Makers (Hardcore Mix)" samples Gene Wilder from the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
- "The Garden of Linmiri" was featured in a Gerard de Thame-directed television advertisement for Pirelli's P6000 tyres featuring Carl Lewis. It previously appeared on the 1993 Disco B Energy '93 compilation.
