Sounds like a bad synthesiser in a small hallway. The only good thing about it is that the music is Bach.

That's 'cause it IS a bad synthesizer. The size of the hallway, I don't know.

I remember being real disappointed in the pitch resolution of 8-bit music. I wrote some code for the Atari 400 that explored its limits. It was literally impossible to get it to play in tune.
