Music
The game only has 5 songs, so there's not a lot of music in the game. The good thing is that Barry Leitch was brought in to do the game's soundtrack. Since the developers didn't have an in-house musician, they outsourced the sound to Imagitec Design. Like the other versions of the game, Weird Dreams for the Commodore 64 lacks credits. However, Barry confirmed that he wrote the music for the Commodore 64 version. Barry also did the DOS version's soundtrack. According to Barry, the developers wanted him to arrange David Whittaker's Amiga and Atari ST soundtrack.
Barry had to write the music in assembly. The game uses a sound driver by programmer Axel Brown, but Barry said it's possible Dave Chiles and/or Adrian Waterhouse modified the sound engine.
The music plays a quarter step sharp.
Recording
The song Title Screen plays during the second piano segment, and Piano plays during the title screen. However, they have been named for consistency with the other versions of the game.
