Introduction
I generally prefer Cloudbuilt to SCB, but there is one area I think SCB improves: the music. Fortunately, Cloudbuilt's music files are just lying out in the open, so you can replace them with Super Cloudbuilt's soundtrack and jam out to the 2017 tracks while playing the 2014 and 2020 levels.
Prerequisites
Before getting started, you will need:
  • Cloudbuilt (of course), installed and working;
  • the Super Cloudbuilt OST, which you can get from Jacob Lincke's Bandcamp[jacoblincke.bandcamp.com];
  • and a degree of comfort moving files around and renaming them.

Download the MP3 version of the SCB OST and unpack it somewhere convenient.

Locate your Cloudbuilt install directory (most easily done with right-click → manage → browse local files in Steam) and open the sounds/ directory therein. This contains all sounds and music for Cloudbuilt, including the files we will be replacing.
Replacements
Now it is time to replace some files. You will be renaming files from the SCB OST and then using them to replace the Cloudbuilt files of the same name. Note that there is no need to convert the files; Cloudbuilt will quite happily play MP3s even if they have a .ogg extension.

Note that some files use underscores, and some hyphens, and not all of the capitalization is consistent. This is to match the original filenames; it is not an error in the guide.
