do you just mean "include" your sound files with the executable?

that is fairly simple.
Just create a folder in your project directory, for example "sounds"  (you
must not use .hidden folder names unless it's name is .public)
Put your clip.mp3 file into the sounds folder then access it like this..

music.load("./sounds/clip.mp3")
or
music.load("sounds/clip.mp3")
