Music

Music is background music that is added to various video games. Music has been added to many games, starting from the Flash version of Bloons TD 4 and the mobile versions of Bloons.

Since Bloons TD 4, Ninja Kiwi has added music to their Bloons Tower Defense games. This can be muted as well as the sound effects in the game. Every song in Bloons TD 5 and the song "Party Time" from Bloons TD 6 share a common bass motif established in the theme from Bloons TD 4. The music in BTD5, Bloons Monkey City, Bloons Super Monkey 2, Bloons Supermonkey 2 Mobile, BTD6, Bloons Adventure Time TD, Bloons Pop!, and Bloons TD Battles 2 were composed by Tim Haywood. The themes from the original Bloons TD Battles including mobile versions come from royalty-free music. All mobile games also have their own music too.

Bloons TD 4
Bloons Tower Defense 4 has one music track which is its theme tune. This plays constantly through the main menu and the gameplay unless muted.

Bloons TD on iPhone
These games also have a theme tune that plays throughout the game. Both Bloons TD4 and Bloons TD on iPhone allow the player to mute the in-game music and listen to their own music.

Bloons TD 5 Flash
Unlike the previous games, this game has 3 separate music tracks including its theme tune. Each of the in-game tracks. They can also be muted of the player prefers.

Bloons TD 5 Deluxe
All tracks added in this game have a new theme. It is a light, bouncy, and happy sounding theme. This also applies to the new Special Missions.

Bloons TD 5 Mobile/Steam
All the Mobile/Steam maps have special Music. For example, Roswell has a British rock theme, The Rink has a electronic dance theme, and Space Truckin' has a disco theme. The main theme has a very slightly different arrangement in Flash and Mobile versions, and it can be observed by listening to the different themes very closely.

Bloons TD 6
Most of the music in this game departs from the motif established in BTD4. There are a total of 7 original songs, plus additional remixes in the Trophy Store in this game, as well as the "Jazz Theme" from BTD5 being recycled.

''Notice: As per wiki upload policy, we have included Spotify links to the tracks composed by Tim Haywood below. Be welcome to support his musical talents.''

Bloons Adventure Time TD
Like Bloons TD 6, Bloons Adventure Time TD also has a set of tracks composed by Tim Haywood. Many of these soundtracks are based on pre-existing Adventure Time soundtracks.

Bloons Pop!
There are four soundtracks in Bloons Pop!, all of which were written by Tim Haywood. All of them play during the game in the order these soundtracks are arranged, and loop from the start again once the last soundtrack has finished playing.

Bloons TD Battles 2
Entirely new soundtrack made by Tim Haywood. Many of these are mixtures of existing Bloons soundtracks, such as Bloons TD Battles 1, Bloons TD 6, and Bloons Pop!.

In this game, the main theme plays only the main menu and in the loading screen leading to the main menu. When loading into the matchmaking queue, the "waiting" theme plays. Upon meeting a match, a random selection of soundtracks will play. There are two variants of those map soundtracks: "instrumental" and "melodic" (wrong musical terms?). The "instrumental" plays while in the loadout menu and after a battle (as of Version 1.0.4), while the "melodic" plays once the game begins.

The zither (the "BTD6 instrument") returns as a recurring instrument played throughout OSTs in Battles 2.

Non-match soundtracks:

Randomized soundtracks consist of the following:

Bloons TD 6

 * Some tracks have had their music changed within updates:
 * Dark Castle used to play "Sunset Samba" on its initial release in version 5.0, but was changed to "Tribes and Tribulations" on version 6.0.
 * Candy Falls used to play "Sunset Samba" on its initial release in version 17.0, but was changed to "Winter Nights" on version 18.0.
 * Cubism used to play "Tropical Carnival" since its initial release in version 1.0, but was changed to "Sunshine Serenade" on version 17.1.
 * Due to an error, Logs used to play the "Jazz Theme" on version 17.1 instead of the correct "Sunset Samba" theme used on prior versions. It was corrected back to "Sunset Samba" on version 18.0.
 * Underground changed from "Tribes and Tribulations" to "Sunshine Serenade" in around Version 20.0.
 * Lotus Island, Spice Islands, and Off the Coast all have changed to "Sail Again", once using "Tribes and Tribulations", "Fiesta Flamenco", and "Sunset Samba", respectively.
 * The song "Sail Again" is based on the British-NZ whaling song "Wellerman". Wellerman is also one of the many erroneous "sea shanties" popularized in the early 2020s.
 * The song "Jazz Theme" is the only soundtrack that is only played in one map.
 * It is also the only soundtrack that returned from Bloons TD 5.
 * Only three Expert Maps do not use "Tribes and Tribulations" as the default soundtrack: Muddy Puddles, Quad, and Bloody Puddles.
