Unoriginal Soundtracks #67: Dirt 3

Every other Wednesday, I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Searching for relevant terms on Spotify is a great way to discover new music and uncover hidden gems. Make requests to @USPodcast on Twitter.

British developer Codemasters' successor to the Colin McRae series of rally games continues the tradition of solo drives along country roads. Those classic events and the newer buggy races and petrol-fueled gymnastics inspire this playlist of blues, hip hop, and rock.
