Its length is 3:36 seconds. The song contains techno-remixes of the Halo theme, including the theme's opening monk chant. In addition, sections of Steve Vai's Mjolnir Mix are heard. This song is not heard during the Halo 2 gameplay. It includes Cortana extracts throughout the song, and ends with her saying "Thats it, I'm shutting you down!" It is unknown what she is shutting down, but this could be a reference to the music begin "shut-down", or it could be that she found the whole song annoying and desided to terminate it.
