Adaptive music

Also known as dynamic music, adaptive music reacts to changes in gameplay state. It encompasses techniques such as re-sequencing of precomposed pieces, dynamic mixing, generative music where either notes or sounds are generated at runtime in software, or sequencing directly based on user input such as in Tetris Effect.

See Adaptive and Generative Music for more information.
