We usually just put on a random CD, tape, or even the radio, and turn the
volume quite low so we don't have to shout over the music. Actually
choosing the music that suits what's going on in the game is very rare,
mainly because things change too fast, and there usually isn't any such
music around. I think the closest we got was putting on the soundtrack
from Labyrinth during parts of Harlequin's Back, and of course the Empire
Strikes Back soundtrack while playing Star Wars.

Mostly, though, it's just whatever CDs happen to be around.
