The sound designer for the original Pac-Man was Toshio Kai and obviously a lot of his iconic effects and tunes run through the series.
Credited musicians for Championship Edition are Junko Ozawa and for Championship Edition DX Akitaka Tohyama, Hiroshi Okubo, Hiroyuki Kawada, Taku Inouea. Unfortunately we are unable to ascertain which composers contributed which tracks.
