"Sixtyten" is the sixth track on Music has the Right to Children.

Samples a sound effect from the 1958 horror film Terror from the Year 5000 (found by Twoism user Timbob)^[1]
Samples the song "Getaway" by Earth, Wind & Fire^[2]
- Throughout the song is a voice sample saying "What you", followed by "It's alright"
- "I know we can!" plays at 2:17 in Sixtyten as well as in Getaway.
Also samples the song "On Your Face" by Earth, Wind & Fire from the same album (forwards at 2:27, reversed at 3:28 and elsewhere in the song).^[3]
- When the sample is reversed and corrected for pitch "Keep a smiling face" plays at 3:28 in Sixtyten, taken from 1:10 in On Your Face. ^[4]
Samples vintage "Many Me's" Sesame Street vignette.
- Backwards: "There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry."
- Same Sesame Street vignette as "Whitewater" lyrics
The separate vignette at the end of the track, which it shares with "Twoism", is believed to be a composition named "Blueberry".^[5]
May sample a vocal shot of Colonel Abrams "Trapped"
- Throughout the track, the phrase "what you're" can be heard, slightly pitched up and with a possible slight vocoder effect. Credit to Brady Brignac for this discovery. ^[6]

"Sixtyten" is 70 (a literal translation of the french word for seventy 'soixante dix'). You'll hear this in "Aquarius" too. A reference to Music70, BoC's own label. See comments on "The Smallest Weird Number" in Geogaddi.
