Musical genres often form an integral part of a wider scene, and typically this may include specific fashion brands, particular club nights and so on. Given its computer roots it should come as no surprise that the retro-leaning genre of chiptune is heavily associated with the computer demoscene.
Chiptune music itself is based on early video game music and is all about capturing the classic tones found in games consoles such as the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Nintendo Game Boy and Sega Mega Drive, but also gaming computers such as the Commodore 64 and Commodore Amiga.
