I don't see much discussion about this, but sometimes good background music can make a tabletop pnp or board game adventure that much more atmospheric.

Do you play background music during your sessions, and if you do, what sort of music/playlists do you play?

I use soundtracks of games and movies and organize them in some themed playlists, like "Wilderness", "City", "Fighting",... I tried to time specific tracks with specific ingame events once, but it didn't turn out very well. The effect was negligible and I felt more like a DJ than a GM.

Today I stumbled across this: https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/dungeonRPGSoundscapeGenerator.php
Might try that out during the next dungeon crawl.
