What term describes Mario Kart World's music changing smoothly as players progress through modes?

Mario Kart World uses dynamic music transitions to change the soundtrack smoothly as players progress through different game modes. The system helps the audio follow the movement between environments rather than stopping abruptly between separate themes.

Course music was built with dedicated introductions and endings. These sections help tracks connect into a medley-like experience during Knockout Tour, where racers continuously travel through multiple areas and courses.

The idea also supports the game's open-ended design. Free Roam uses a large library of rearranged tracks selected by an internal jukebox system, while race modes can make musical changes feel tied to the player's route. Dynamic music transitions are therefore a design feature, not the name of a separate playable mode.
