Hello. I was just wondering how the music in kof fighters works.  If it is based on a stage, or if it goes by character.  For example, if you fought 2 different characters on the same background, could you have 2 different bgm's on that stage?  Does it depend on the game?  I was just wondering because I am trying to put the correct bgm with the correct stages in my mugen.  (I am more of a capcom guy but there are many great snk stages)  Any input would be great thanks.

Music is character/team-based, but some stages you can associate with a character more than others.

Earlier KoFs I believe had stages assigned to characters other than the bosses.

For the most part Kof was based on the stage and the stage was specific to the team. 94-96 was like that. for example in 96 if you fought on the Ikari stage you heard their theme "Rumbling on the City".  97 was different it was based on the characters but not every character had a theme. So unless Iori, Kyo, Blue Mary, Athena, Shingo, Yamazaki, Terry, Billy, or the New face team, were on the screen you only heard background sound of the stage. 98 went back to having team based themes. But some teams you always fought on the same stage. I think from 2000 on the stages were no longer tied to a team. 

Version 3.0 coming... Um...  When I get to it.

In KoFXI we have music that is based in both character and stage (The concert stage with either Athena or Duck King has a new BGM)

Thanks everyone for this info. 

So in other words it will not be easy assigning bgm to certain stages. I will do my best at trying to fit themes to the stages.  Maybe if I play some more kof it will come to me better.

In KOF2k2, if you're playing story mode then the stage specific song is played. However, if you play Vs. mode, then the character/team theme is played instead
