{{main|Edge of Darkness (soundtrack)}}The musical score was provided by [[Eric Clapton]] and [[Michael Kamen]]. Clapton was approached to provide the score by producer Michael Wearing.<ref name="Magnox">Vanezis, ''Magnox: The Secrets of Edge of Darkness''.</ref> Shortly afterwards, when Michael Kamen brought Clapton to a screening of ''[[Brazil (1985 film)|Brazil]]'' (1985), which Kamen had scored, Clapton suggested a collaboration between the two on ''Edge of Darkness''.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://fabulousbakers.tripod.com/edge/interview01.html |title = Interview: Michael Kamen |access-date = 7 April 2007 |work = Northmoor }}</ref> Kamen became one of Hollywood's most successful film composers, writing the scores for many blockbuster films including the ''[[Lethal Weapon]]'' series (1987–1998) (also with Clapton), the first three ''[[Die Hard]]'' films (1988, 1990, 1995), ''[[Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves]]'' (1991) and ''[[X-Men (film)|X-Men]]'' (2000).

Aside from the Clapton/Kamen soundtrack, [[Willie Nelson]]'s "The Time of the Preacher", [[New Model Army (band)|New Model Army]]'s "Christian Militia", and [[Tom Waits]]' "16 Shells From A Thirty-Ought-Six" are featured in the series. "Christian Militia" is on the record player when Terry's body is found. Craven listens to "The Time of the Preacher" when he is in Emma's room in the first episode. It later emerges Jedburgh is familiar with the song and both he and Craven sing it on two occasions, the lyrics being significant.

The [[Australian Broadcasting Corporation]] used the music to illustrate stories on the [[Chernobyl disaster]] the following year. Eric Clapton and Michael Kamen performed the movie's main theme with the [[National Philharmonic Orchestra]] during the ''[[24 Nights]]'' period in 1990 and 1991.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000002LN9 |title=24 Nights: Music |website=Amazon |year=1991 |access-date=2014-05-28}}</ref>
