Level, story sequence music

One song for each level in story mode, associated with the back drop. can have ambient sounds in music appropriate to the back drop. in head-to-head back drop selection brings the music with it. (looping)

Dynamic music for in-game songs by jumping to extra patterns for defeat/victory conditions during play. At minimal, the music should pick up pace when your playing area is getting full. Also, the story sequence music could differ slightly from in-game music, even if some patterns and all samples are shared.

Detail: With 2 players on the same machine, the music will pick up the pace when either playing area is getting full, and always play the victory theme no matter who wins.
