The past few months have been wonderfully lazy, with the summer heat making it hard to get much done. Life gets so busy during this season, both personally and professionally. But one thing that has kept me going is music. Music is such an inspiring force, especially when things get tough and hard to navigate. For me, your host of the Overlooked Tracks Podcast, Kenny Chiba, life without music would be, well, quite dull.

Just like in episode #81, we’re keeping it simple and pure with sounds you might have heard before or perhaps new artists showcasing their talents. Either way, the music will be fresh, and as you let these vibes wash over you, feel free to reach out to the artists and ask for more. It’s straightforward and to the point.

Welcome to FACEMINER, a gripping narrative-driven strategy game set in an alternate technological past—where biometric data is power, and every face has value.

Composed by Madwreck, the Faceminer Original Soundtrack is a sonic time capsule, meticulously crafted to capture the essence of pre-Y2K electronic music. Across 60+ minutes of immersive soundscapes, the album blends the raw energy of acid techno, hypnotic downtempo grooves, and spellbinding ambient jungle. Created with authentic retro hardware, samplers and rompler synths, each track pulses with 303 basslines, complex breakbeats, and atmospheric textures, paying homage to the golden age of underground electronic music.

From haunting ambient tones to adrenaline-fueled rhythms, Madwreck’s soundtrack is more than a backdrop—it’s an extension of Faceminer’s dystopian vision, where corporate ambition meets the eerie hum of obsolete machines. Whether you’re diving into the game or simply craving an auditory journey through a lost technological era, this album is an essential listen.

Soul Trippin'

 Kid Fonque & Dj Whisky Feat. Zaki Ibrahim - Be (Atjazz & Jullian Gomes Remix)

‘Be’ remix is provided by deep house stalwart, ‘Atjazz’ and South African production prodigy ‘Jullian Gomes’ – a pair who frequently team up for in-studio experimentation and artistry. Cloaked in a steady groove, their remix bubbles with warmth and charm. Driving drums are layered with sun-baked chords before Zaki’s celestial vocals cast their spell. Infectiously spirited and intense, this mix will find itself at home on deeper dancefloors.
