Music

The game uses a pretty powerful AdLib tracker which gives the music a strong polished sound. All of the tracks are lengthy and competent. The rearrangement of Limahl's theme from the first movie is pretty accurate to the original as is Joe Milner's Dreams We Dream from the second movie.

Credits

Michael Tschögl is credited in the Commodore 64 and Amiga versions which have similar music, so it's safe to assume he arranged the music for the DOS version as well, though, someone else may have ported it to the AdLib format. Because two of the tracks are rearrangements of the movie's soundtrack, the Death track is probably one as well, but it has yet to be proved.

Denis Julitov ripped the game's AdLib music and created the NES format to house it. The music was played with his NES2Play program and the OPL data was logged into DRO through DOSBox 0.74, and finally recorded using AdPlug 1.8.2.

This game may be missing some tracks. The Commodore 64 version has several additional tracks that aren't found in the DOS rip. More research into the DOS port should be made to see if the remaining tracks exist.
