I had never thought of calling Atari music "chiptunes" before, and yet I suppose the POKEY chip is just as much a chip as the SID chip. I also suppose "chiptunes" as a category is now much larger than it was in the early 1990s when I first encountered it to exclusively refer to C64-soundalikes.
Also not that it matters at all but this is actually a conversion of a 1500s Spanish madrigal song, "La Bomba," my Mateo Flecha, which had recently been "re-popularized" by the group "King's Singers" around the time of this game's design.
YAY! POKEY!
