Background music isn't something you can set at compile time, you'll have to use the areas Entered() and Exited() proc to control it. Of course, you can set up a controller so that it's easier for you to add new background music.

#define BGM_CHANNEL 1   // Set a specific channel so it 
                        // doesn't interfere with other sounds

area
  var/bg_music

  Entered(mob/M)
    if(bg_music && istype(M) && M.client)   // Only players need to hear BGM
      M << sound(bg_music, repeat=1, channel=BGM_CHANNEL)
    ..()
  Exited(mob/M)
    if(bg_music && istype(M) && M.client)
      M << sound(null, channel=BGM_CHANNEL)
    ..()


Now you should be able to add music like this:
area/Cathedral  
  bg_music='DR.wma'
