"Find the flag hidden not so deep inside."
and a file which i've re-uploaded here
For music files, usually i will use Audacity to see whether there are hidden clues within.

The 2nd audio track when you zoom in seems like "-" & ".".
Could it be morse code?

We were given back ??EMOSEGNSI6908AO?FFDA?NOWEBOFI
Doesn't seems like it.
Then i listened to the other track and the music sounded strange as if it's music played backwards.
So i used one of the features in Audacity to reverse the .mp3 file and track 1 sounds better now.
So probably the morse code from track 2 should be read from back to front too.
After reversing the morse code, we got back
After using the morse code to text translator, we got back the following.--.-.- --.-.- . -- --- ... . --. -. ..... -.... ----. ----- ---.. .- --- .-.- ..-. ..-.-.. .- --.-.- -. --- .-- . -... --- ..-. ..
