Someone needs to get this soundtrack and fill in the details.

Added few infos that can be found here:

LOL, Valve said something about it being exclusive through the Steam store, and yet you can buy it for cheaper from Amazon. What the hell?

I added the track specific composer info there just now. It's great when you e-mail people at developers like Valve and actually get an answer. I emailed Gabe, and he forwarded it to Morasky, who told me who composed what.

Valve rocks. :D

Technically this shouldn't go here but it kind of links up with it. Should the Orange Box that gets downloaded when you purchase Audiosurf be added? It is called the orange box soundtrack, however it is not this soundtrack.

Included is.

Personally I think it's best not to add a separate entry for something like this as, while it's not exactly the same thing, it's a bit too close to a regular music/sound directory for my liking. I think it being mentioned here is good enough.

Yeah, but despite the way Audio-Surf is played, it's not specifically part of the game. It can be moved or deleted with no issues (except for Steam's re-DLing but that's a seperate point).

What about The Last Express? The soundtrack comes with the "collector's edition" sold at DotEmu, and it's as with AS not in tegrated into the game - the music is in the large data files, the Mp3s are just rips of the official CD (http://vgmdb.net/album/1379). It doesn't seem any different to me than a bonus CD that comes with the game.

Two questions:
1) In the booklet track #19 is labeled as Still Alive (J.C. Version), not Still Alive (J.C. Mix). Why the tracklist is different?
2) Shouldn't GLaDOS be credited as Ellen McLain in Performed by? In the booklet she's referenced as the voice of GLaDOS...seems that the "priority" is her, not GLaDOS. Dunno if I explained it well...

You're right, I fixed these two things :)

Where do the notes come from on who composed what?
