Signs of Life Soundtrack Mod for Starbound

Signs of Life is a sandbox survival game initially released to Steam in the same "sandbox early access boom" that brought about failures like Edge of Space and Darkout, as well as successes such as Starbound. Signs of Life, however, has remained in "Early Access Hell" to this day, with slow update releases and a store page stating that the game is still in alpha phase.

Per request, this mod brings SoL's soundtrack to Starbound. 27 ambient tracks have been distributed between Starbound's "Day" and "Night" tracklists for all biomes that normally have fully randomized tracklists, while 9 tracks that didn't fit well as ambient music have been added as radios that can randomly be sold by merchants encountered on planets.

Please note: All music used in this mod comes directly from the current alpha state of Signs of Life. Tracks from the game are subject to change as the game is developed. All music © Sweet Dog Studios. If you like the music here, be sure to buy a copy of Signs of Life and support its development.

Is this compatible with <insert mod name here>?
As long as the mod in question does not use hard-targeted patch operations on biome music paths, replace the music paths entirely, overwrite entire biome files (all things that should generally be avoided when modding in the first place), or overwrite or improperly edit the basic merchant config, then yes this is compatible. In fact, if you want more music, install this together with my Edge of Space Music for Starbound mod.

Would you add these songs to custom biomes from <insert mod name here>?
No.

Does this let me kick robochickens?
No.

If you want help, be it with an issue actually originating from this mod or anything else, you must include a pastebin link to your complete starbound.log from the session that had an issue. Comments that demand help, only include a log snippet, or do not include a log at all will be ignored and/or deleted. And please, by all that's decent, spellcheck your messages. If English isn't your first language, I can understand machine (Google) translation better than I can spelling guesses.

This mod is huge.
Not a question. However, I'm fully aware that this mod is 276MB. Not much of a choice in that matter. The songs used in this mod are from the Signs of Life assets, and I'm not going to go in and compress the files as well as damage their quality. Sorry not sorry.

Some of these tracks are really loud.
Not a question. And yeah, they are. Remember, these tracks come from a game in alpha. Volume normalization and audio asset polish are something that tend to be a priority during beta, and I'm not about to fix someone else's creative work for the convenience of a mod.
