The Nintendo Entertainment System and other video game systems of the 1980s, as well as computers of the time, used “chiptune,” — popularly known as “8-bit” music — for the soundtrack of games. Composers used programmable sound generators to create synthesized electronic music.

More recently, musicians emulated “8-bit” compositions using modern instruments for both their own songs and to create covers in the chiptune format. Listen to Zapfish’s 8-bit “Time To Flee” below:
