Jacob, You are ... Not quite going about this in the correct way.You should install Distribute, available from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute This will provide the setuptools package, which is used to install most modern Python packages.
Once this is done, navigate to the folder and run: python setup.py installwhich will actually install the library into your site-packages directory and add it to the global package registry. As for documentation, I must admit that sound_libs is limited, but here's the general idea:
Bass, the underlying library provides functions such asBASS_ChannelPlay, which takes as an argument the handle of a channel to play. The library models a pseudo-OO structure, with output streams and recordings inheriting the methods of channels, so I followed this in my wrapper. So once you instantiate, for instance, a sound_lib.stream.FileStream object, you can then call play on this object and it will call BASS_ChannelPlay with the channel's handle, which the object stores upon instantiation. Furthermore, Bass has many getters and setters which I have replaced with Python properties--so instead of calling BASS_ChannelSetAttribute(<channel_handle>, BASS_AttribPan, -1.0)
you can just go: channel.pan = -1I hope this is enough to get you started, and if you have any more questions feel free to contact me off-list.

Ok, think figured it out since see that there's a main.py file in actual sound_lib subdirectory, so can copy that folder/directory over wherever and then reference it and the objects/modules under there from within python interpreter, using import statement, and see there's also a .chm help file there, so let me play around a bit.

Do I need to run this under a different version of python, or do I not really need to run setup.py to actually make use of this under python itsself, and in that case, which modules should I initially try importing then, and/or where should I copy the contents of the .gz file I downloaded to under python27's installation directory? Sorry, but am still relatively new to python itsself, and hence am rather asking these questions.
