Included on this EP is a cover of "[[Korobeiniki]]", a 19th-century Russian folk song later popularized as the theme song to the {{Wikipedia|Game Boy}} port of the video game ''{{Wikipedia|Tetris}}'' (though it technically appeared first in the Macintosh/Apple IIgs versions by {{Wikipedia|Spectrum Holobyte}}). Ozma guitarist [[Ryen Slegr]] has cited the works of {{Wikipedia|Dmitri Shostakovich}} as well as [[the Rentals]]' early utilization of Eastern Bloc imagery as inspiration for the album's Russian themes.<ref name="ozma20th" /> The second half of the album, dubbed the '''''Bootytraps EP''''', features five tracks, each named after a member of the band's alter ego.
