There was a fantastic soundtrack created for this audiobook in the 90s by the industrial group Black Rain. https://room40.bandcamp.com/album/neuromancer

Wow, that is absolutely phenomenal! This alone makes me want to listen to the audio book, which would be my first. Perhaps a dumb question, but are ambient tracks and/or similar fx stuff common in audio books? I'd always assumed it was simply a reading.
Many audiobooks have brief music interludes between major sections, but generally that's it, just narration.

Soundbooth Theater does exactly that with music and sound effects

Woah, thank you so much for posting this. What an atmosphere.
