You can either:

Play the music while you're recording your narration
or
link the sound files

Of course, this means you have to keep the sound files with the presentation:

There's nothing in PPT itself to help with this, but I think you could
plug a music source into the Line In jack on your PC, adjust volumes
using the system mixer and play the music while you record your
narration.

If you use PPT's record narration feature for this, the music will stop
between slides just as your narration does.

If exact timing isn't critical, it might be better to record your
narration and the music bed as a single sound file (Audacity is a nice
free app to do this sort of thing with). Then insert the sound on the
first slide, set it to run for the entire presentation and finally
adjust your slide timings to synch (approximately) to the narration.

Play sounds across multiple slides (A WAV runs through it)
