<hr />
<div>The term '''Music Tracks''' refers to the background music played while ''Starbound'' is running. Different from [[Music]], music tracks automatically play regardless of whether an instrument is being used, and they can be muted by setting the Music setting to 0.<br />
<br />
==Choosing a Track==<br />
<br />
Depending on the state of the game at a given moment, the game can choose to play one of several tracks.<br />
<br />
Certain situations, such as the title screen, zones within instanced areas (including [[Missions]]), and some cinematics, only allow one track to be played. In these cases, the one track will usually be played on a repeating loop until the situation changes such that a different track is required.<br />
<br />
Other situations, however, allow more than one track to be played. In these cases, the next track is chosen randomly out of all allowed tracks and played once. A track may be interrupted if the situation changes such that the currently-played track is no longer allowed - in this case, the current track will stop abruptly, and a track allowed by the new situation will begin to play.<br />
<br />

==Music Track Groups==<br />
<br />
Many music tracks can contain shared melodies or play in the same situations as other tracks; thus, it is useful to organize tracks into track groups which include all valid tracks for a certain situation.<br />
<br />
Two very common situations are day-time and night-time on [[planets]]. Many [[biome]]s and [[layer]]s use the same two sets of tracks for these two times of day.<br />
<br />
===Starbound Leitmotif===<br />
These tracks and sound effects include a characteristic, recurring tune.<br />
