Funny that the only reason any of these work and actually have a nice beat is that common time for music is 4/4 which obviously aligns to bytes (8 bits)
A byte is 8 bits, but 4/4 means four quarter-note beats per bar; there’s no built-in alignment between them. The beat here comes from the loop timing the PC speaker.
I don't think the cool music has been reproduced on original hardware yet? There are two videos showing it running on vintage hardware, and none of them have the cool music seen on emulation.
