DMA Design Music

Tim Wright (CoLD SToRAGe) composed the soundtracks that defined the Lemmings era. Amiga MOD format — the Paula chip, not the SID.

Important: DMA Design games use Amiga MOD format (Paula chip, 4-channel audio) — not C64 SID. Do not search HVSC (High Voltage SID Collection) for DMA Design or Tim Wright titles. MOD files are available from modland.com and archive.org.

Contrast with the Psygnosis fan site where David Whittaker's C64 SID catalogue is featured via jsSID player. DMA Design's music heritage is Amiga MOD, not SID.

Tim Wright (CoLD SToRAGe)

Tim Wright, working under the alias CoLD SToRAGe, composed the iconic soundtracks for the core Lemmings titles and other DMA Design Amiga games. His music is characterised by catchy, melodic themes that loop perfectly as level music — upbeat and whimsical in Lemmings, dramatic and atmospheric in Walker and Hired Guns.

Brian Johnston

Brian Johnston composed original music for Lemmings (Amiga, 1991). The precise split between his contributions and Tim Wright's arrangements in the final release requires verification against primary credits (Hall of Light, MobyGames). Tim Wright is the more widely cited composer for the definitive Lemmings soundtrack.

David Whittaker (External - Psygnosis era)

David Whittaker composed music for Menace (1988) and Blood Money (1989). Whittaker was an external composer engaged by Psygnosis, not a DMA Design employee. His work belongs to the DMA/Psygnosis partnership era. Whittaker's C64 SID catalogue is covered by HVSC but is separate from DMA Design's Amiga MOD heritage.
