Uhh… I guess it’s not technically DLC, but ConcernedApe is selling the game soundtrack for $5 on Steam. It’s in the game’s DLC category, but unlike some other soundtracks on Steam, it’s not dependent on owning the base game to purchase.

But it’s also downloadable content, so it is DLC… I guess it depends on how you want to define DLC nowadays.

DLC in this context is pretty widely understood to mean in game content. So additional areas, cosmetics, missions, etc. not the soundtrack. Steam just categorizes the soundtracks as DLC for games in general.

Using this definition, the game itself is DLC. Almost everything on the internet is a form of Downloadable Content.

Is it possible the music has its own license and therefore warrants a separate listing?

It’s being sold via ConcernedApe on that Steam page I linked in my previous comment. So he’s earning the money from sales.
