Caveats

Remember, that TIC runs 6o times per second. When you're changing the state of your music inside TIC you'll may need to keep track of the status manually.

An example:

soundtrack = false

function TIC()
    -- check that we only start the music a single time
    if not soundtrack then
        music(0)
        soundtrack = "intro"
    end
end
