Dudes: The Beatles - A Day in the Life and I Want You (she's so heavy) are incredible. Play them now.

My favourite track so far would be the Blue Danube waltz by Johan Sebastian Strauss. Not only because it does the whole audio-visual thing so spectacularly (I swear I nearly had an orgasm the first time I tried it), but also because the pacing and so on is just right for the puzzle element. I've uploaded the mp3 I use (

A close second goes to Eulogy by Tool which is just plain awesome to play.

try chrome hoof, your eyes are gonna explode :)
like some others I refuse to participate in the 100000000th play of Metallica's One or some other radio shit so I'm satisfied with my "own" leaderboard nobody's ever gonna compete in.... hehe

God, if there was ever a song that was LESS appropriate for this sort of game, it'd be "One". Don't get me wrong, I like the song, but Jesus people need to pick their music more tastefully.

The most fun I had with the game is when I played Millenium Fever by Apollo 440 and Biaxident by Liquid Tension Experiment. Those songs really make Audiosurf shine.
Only one achievement to go now: Stealth Legend. Need to think of a good track to unlock it on, though... :erm:

I was trying to unlock it witih Roseta Stoned by Tool, just because it was one of the few songs I had that was 11+ minutes. Let me tell you, fucking up and hitting a grey with ten seconds to go in an 11 minute 10 second song is NOT FUN. It saps your will to achieve, even.
EDIT: SON OF A BITCH! This is the stupidest achievement! This goddamn song has THE most difficult section five seconds from finish. Twenty minutes of my damn day and NOTHING to show for it!

This is fun, one of the more entertaining casual games to come out in a while.

I think its great that they can make a "ride" based on a track but playing it isn't that engaging for me. Shame, I was looking forwards to it.

I wasn't a very big fan of the standard colour matching mode, myself. Try giving one of the harder mono modes a try. I find that simple enough mentally and challenging enough skill wise that I don't really have time to not be engaged.

Another vote for Ninja Mono here. It's easier to discern how the tiles synch on the monos as well, instead of the 'OH FUCK LOTS OF TILES WHAT FUCK DEAD?!' that tends to dominate characters like Pusher and Pointman.
