depends, is this a non-profit project? The FMOD is good.
If you''re looking to do anything on a commercial level, you''d need to liscense FMOD, which can be pricy. A popular alternative is VORBIS OGG format. Its open source and free to use, even commercially

#include "sdl.h"#include "sdl_mixer.h" 

// Load SDL for Audio (loads the sdl.dll)if ( SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_AUDIO) < 0 ){	SDL_Quit();	return;}// Setup audio deviceint audio_rate = 44100;Uint16 audio_format = AUDIO_S16; /* 16-bit stereo */int audio_channels = 2;int audio_buffers = 4096;    if(Mix_OpenAudio(audio_rate, audio_format, audio_channels, audio_buffers)){	SDL_Quit();	Mix_CloseAudio();	return;} 

Mix_CloseAudio();SDL_Quit(); 

// you need this variable for the music fileMix_Music* music;// load the music filemusic = Mix_LoadMUS("filename.ogg");// play music file on music channel (-1 is loop until stop)Mix_PlayMusic(music, -1);// fade out the music channelMix_FadeOutMusic(ms);// stop the music channelMix_HaltMusic();// free the music fileMix_FreeMusic(music);

// you need this variable for the sound fileMix_Chunk* sound;// load the sound like so:sound = Mix_LoadWAV("filename.wav");// Play the sound once on an available channel (0 is play once, -1 is "next available channel" - can be replaced with a channel number)Mix_PlayChannel(-1, sound, 0);// unload the fileMix_FreeChunk(sound);
