Music of Pac-Land is the arrangement of the Pac-Man: The Animated.

IMDb has a more complete staff:

Anyway, it has more musicians than Paul (including Hoyt Curtin, who did a lot of HB cartoons themes). Neither one was worked in all of 44 episodes. So, its difficult who did all music for TV show.

Also, initially, I was aimed to logging the Famicom version of Pac-Land, however, the NSF has missing two tracks from the Famicom port (Round Start and Game Over). So, I switched it from the ZX one.

Could you please use the VGM Undualizer (vgm_ndlz) on these VGMs?
Thanks.

(Note: nezplug's .ay emulation is horrible enough to emulate a ZX Spectrum and an Amstrad CPC at the same time. So it logs 2xYM2149 with the ZX clock and Amstrad AY-type.)

I was forgotten to do it in both Pac-Land and Dragon Spirit. At moment, only Pac-Land is updated, however, without these composers from the animated series.

Yeah, it sucks even more: NEZplay/plug cannot play Beeper/Speaker/1-bit DAC music. It was a shame. However, the ZX clock is higher than CPC one (1.773400 Mhz in ZX Spectrum 128 X 1.000000 MHz in CPC), and both computers uses AY8912. YM2149 is only used in some ZX Spectrum clones (e.g.: Grandboard 2+), as well some Atari 16-bit computers in a high clock rate (2 Mhz).

Also, is not a bad idea bulding a YM/SC68 (Atari ST music formats) players with VGM logging, right?

A YM player with VGM logging would make as much sense as a DRO player with VGM logging, since YM is already a logged format.
An SC68 player with VGM logging would probably make sense, but I don't see a reason for mirroring other archives.
