Samples / Lyrics
- "Uritual" shares melodies with the subsequent track, "Nothing Is Real".
- The low drone throughout the track is possibly a sample of the sound of "singing sand dunes", a phenomenon caused by wind blowing over sand dunes where the sand has certain specific properties, which can be heard in around 35 desert locations around the world. This fits with the desert related imagery used in the packaging and promotion of Tomorrow's Harvest. A clip of the sound of singing sand dunes, very similar to the drone in "Uritual", can be found here.
