Chiptune, also known as chip music or 8-bit music, is digital music created for computers and video games. The term is commonly used for music in tracker formats, intentionally designed to sound like older Programmable Sound Generator (PSG) sounds. It is also applied to music that combines PSG sounds with modern musical styles .

Chiptune music often evokes the nostalgic sound of old video games, such as the Nintendo Game Boy or other 8-bit consoles. These tunes have a minimalist quality due to limited sound sources, resulting in a unique and recognizable style.
