Trivia

  • The Sampling Paradise is one of the boss songs of the first phase of the Lincle Kingdom event of beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle.
  • The name Mamonis is a variation of Mammon, one of the seven princes of Hell, representing Greed.
    • In The Sampling Paradise's overlays, Mamonis appears as an old man in a golden suit with a black eyepatch, and with a shadowy aura.
      • When you miss a note, he will attack by throwing a waterfall of bills.
      • If you fail to Normal Clear The Sampling Paradise, Mamonis will turn into a black shadow and dissolve, leaving only the red eye which will turn into a red ring.
  • When The Sampling Paradise is played as a boss stage in Lincle Kingdom, the arcade LED ticker displays, "<GREED>MAMONIS<AVARITIA>".
  • The identity of Mamonis was first revealed by kors k during the Rainbow ☆ Rainbow Release Party held on 1/29/2012.
  • The Sampling Paradise is the first song of Lincle Link 5 to be unlocked in REFLEC BEAT limelight. It becomes available once Glass Level 5 has been reached.
  • On Mamonis' glyph, it is possible to read "Mammon", which is written with a very small font at the side of the glyph.
