Konami Music is a music theme found within many Konami games. It is a short jingle that plays during the startup of a game, at the Konami logo screen. This theme can be considered to be the company's official chime during its early years of game development on home consoles, as it was used and appears in almost all of their home console games on both SNES, Mega Drive and PC Engine consoles. Following the PlayStation/Saturn era and beyond, the chime would eventually completely stop reappearing, with the famous chime disappearing altogether by the time Konami's new logo image was released.
