The 0:00 to 1:40 mark plays as the Squad looks over the hologram of New Mombasa and discusses the mission, 1:41 to 3:06 takes place in the opening drop as the Squad and the other ODST's drop into New Mombasa, as the Slipspace Rupture occurs. The rest of the track plays during the time that The Rookie first wakes up.
