Trivia

• Desert Journey marks dj TAKA's second original song for the DanceDanceRevolution series, after Freeway Shuffle from DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2. However, unlike Freeway Shuffle, Desert Journey originates from a home version rather than an arcade version.
• Desert Journey is unlocked on DanceDanceRevolution 2013 by reaching Enjoy Level 40. At Level 90, a new Challenge chart for Desert Journey will be unlocked.
• Unlike many of the other transplants from the DDR Wii series, Desert Journey's album art uses a different font from its DDR HOTTEST PARTY 2 banner.
• As with all other songs from DDR HOTTEST PARTY and DDR HOTTEST PARTY 2 that appear on DDR X2 and later arcade versions, Desert Journey does not have its special dance routine from DDR HOTTEST PARTY 2. The reason for this is currently unknown.
• Desert Journey's Challenge chart is the first one rated Level 15 that has Shock Arrows since Horatio from DDR X.
