The C64 only had three audio voices (compared to four on the NES), so it was difficult to play decent music and multiple sound effects at the same time. A lot of games let you switch between music or SFX, but not both.
Even so, its musical capabilities were years ahead of anything on the market. I usually played in music mode, if it was available. :)
There's a netradio station that exclusively streams remixes of C64 game music. It's been broadcasting for at least 20 years. It's my favorite thing to listen to while coding. https://www.slayradio.org/ https://www.slayradio.org/
