Other tracks on the single are the Deeper remix "2 Deep" and "Open Mind". Early printings of the album had "Omen 7" mix" as track 2, mislabeled "2 Deep" on the tracklist. Later printings actually include 2 Deep.
All 4 singles off the first Orbital album had remix singles as well. "Omen Remixes" had 4 remixes of the title song, labeled "Omen (The Chariot)", "Omen (The Tower)", "Omen (Wheel of Fortune)", and "Omen (The Fall)".
Omen samples "Song to the Siren" from This Mortal Coil[2] and "(How to Be A) Millionaire" by ABC.[3]
The record sleeve was designed by the usual Orbital collaborator Gavin Fultano (Fultano 90) with photography by Sally Harding and computerised by Chris Smith. The sleeve features a clasping hand in what looks like a heat map.
