A more descriptive and precise thread title will help cater to the right audience and get you more responses.

Also music, that starts to play when the website is opened can be quite annoying.

I personally dislike it, unless the music controls are easily to find, so I can press pause or mute.
 
For an actual music player with multiple tracks, everything I've come across involves Flash player, so you'll have to learn a little actionscript in order to do this as well as own either Flex Builder or Flash CS4/CS3, etc..

If you don't mind the user having to click on an individual song/effect in order for hear something, you can accomplish this easily with an <embed> tag, which should come with at least play/pause controls.
 
I honestly don't think you could find one person that enjoys opening up a webpage and having music autoplay. If you want to add music to the site, I highly recommend making the user click a play button, and not having autoplay.

I "black list" every site that autoplays music. I only ever see the site once then never again.

What I would suggest is a button called "PLAY" that people can click if they want to hear music. Otherwise I can't think of a faster way to chase people away.
