so back in the 80s Konami had an interesting piece of hardware known as the Bubble System, a way of storing data that literally needed to warm up to a certain temperature to work properly. because this took a while every morning at boot up, they included this sweet sounding little song to pass the time.

my question: is this Morning Music an original composition from Konami or was it an existing classical song? games from those old days were definitely not shy about taking public domain classical music and just making that the soundtrack to a game, right? very curious if any of you music people can identify this for me 🤔

ja wikipedia says it was originally a scrapped song that was composed for another game, but it gives no direct source so it's a little hard to verify it. the article gives the March and April 1987 issues of the monthly beep magazine as references, but I can't immediately find those issues
