Mega Noise has left you a miniature jukebox, built to scale. The songs keep fading in and out, but the gaps in the music are the initial thing you notice.
Each of the 10 songs clues a city in its song title once the song is identified.

Atlanta, GA
Boston - Amanda

Chicago - Saturday in the Park

Comparing each of the song clips to their original lyrics, multiple words are found to be missing from the lyrics. Identifying the missing words and reading just their first letters gives a street location within each city to find.

The final information needed for the locations is a street number. This was resolved by using the piano notes at the beginning of each song. Using the underlying tone as a baseline, each key could be mapped to a number assuming the base note = 1 and could resolve to street addresses.
ie. the second song has an underlying note of G. The three notes played are A, A, D which given G=1, means that A=2, B = 3, C = 4, D = 5... so the final number is 225 for the address.
