The release had previously been confirmed in a Facebook post from deadmau5's mau5trap label that initially announced its release for free.[16][17] It was then officially released on March 3, 2017 for digital download only.

The compilation was originally supposed to feature the original version of "Creep" that was on the Spotify release of > album title goes here < for a limited time, "The Big Difference" from deadmau5 Circa 1998-2002, "Oblistique" from Project 56, & "Bored of Canada" from Get Scraped.[18] These tracks were omitted from the final tracklist for unknown reasons.

Several tracks from the album were previously released on other albums and compilations:

While not released officially on any of his albums, the track "HaxPigMeow" was originally uploaded on deadmau5's Soundcloud account, before it was deleted in 2016, under the title "Get In The Pig Meowingtons". The track also featured elements that would later become the track "Infra Turbo Pigcart Racer" that was released on his 7th studio album "while(1<2)" in 2014.
