The second mecanic is directly related to the environement of the levels and the Opera.
The nearest the players are from eachother the louder the music will be played.
The level two was designed to make the two players turn around the map, creating a variation in the music. The thing is that the music playing is the one corresponding to the Act of the Opera.
For example in level one you can hear the music of the Act I of the Aida's Opéra from Verdi.
In level two that will be the famous triomphal march from the Act II of the same Opera.
