It has to be server side like php or any other scripting language.

<?PHP
$file="themp3file.mp3";
header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Length: '. filesize($file));
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='{$file}'");
readfile($file);
?>

For more info, you can check the header() function on the PHP online manual
