I can think of several ways depending on what you want to do. If you just want to join all of the clips together I would use TMPGenc to join (under MPEG tools). Or if you want to make a clip/s from a source load it in TMPGenc, click on settings, and then the advance tab. Double click on 'source range' and choose the start/stop frames you want to encode (there's a time stamp in the top left and a preview window).

To add the background music:
1) De-mux the joined/large MPEG
2) Record you background music to the HD, and encode as MPA/MP2 (eg. w/ tooLame)
3) Use bbMPEG to mux your backgound music with the video.

If you want different music for each clip, then I'd leave them as clips. If you are trying to make your own music video, make sure you plan everything out in advance. I would make a big spread sheet with the lenghts, cut points, transitions, etc. and then make the backgrount music, and then make your clips (esp if you want to see certain clips at certain times). Some friends and I do this to make aninme music videos all the time
