Drive Any Track turns your music collection into a hypnotic, addictive futuristic racer

I often forget how much music I’ve collected over the years. I’ve got stacks of vinyl (yes, I’m that old), racks of CDs, and a ton of MP3 files stored on my PC. It’s these MP3s that Drive Any Track helped resurrect recently, as I took a crazy, hypnotic drive through my digital music collection thanks to the smarts of a couple of ex-Sony Music guys.

Steve Milbourne and Phil Clandillon — collectively known as Foam — quit their “cushy day jobs” a year ago to focus on making their own video games. Their latest effort, Drive Any Track, combines their love of music with an admiration for classic racers like Wipeout, F-Zero, and TrackMania. DAT takes any song (in MP3, FLAC, OGG, or AAC formats) and turns it into a race track. You race against the tunes, staying ahead of the beat if you can, while drifting and flipping to help rack up big scores.
