When the player enters the Village but quickly goes out, if the audio engine is not done playing the exploration music cycle it will not play the village music unless the player stays long enough in the village.

When the player exits the Village, the audio engine waits for a music cycle to be done before switching to exploration music. This allows for smoother transitions.

The game clock instructs the audio engine to switch to night music after 6pm, and back to day music at 8am with a music transition adapted to the tempo and harmony of the targeted music.

The music plays different segments of melodies and accompaniment randomly to make the music unpredicted and interesting as the player explores the area around the city.
