When it comes to rhythm, it's hard to say that one can be a reference to the other, one can simply have similar rhythm patterns from the other, making it sound like it came from something else.
An example of this is from K.O.U and Glitcher, it's not a reference to Glitcher even though Hex was made earlier than Kou. For better context, Kou was made way back before FNF even existed, but that doesn't mean Glitcher came from Kou either.
This video is well made though, instead of "references", you managed to find out the closest similarities of rhythm patterns in songs that are limited only to FNF mods (excluding Flippy, that one is a direct reference to the show).

[@RetorHD]

But i dont reference the songs to similar paterns, i reference them to similar sounds

[@MysticMocha]

@@RetorHD rhythm pattern and sounds are technically the same. You see, rhythm pattern is basically a certain pattern used it music. Each music is memorable by its beat of the pattern. You see this in all songs, they can be repeated, altered, changed completely into a new pattern. I'm not saying that it's a note pattern.
