Kong Strikes Back! is the title music for the game of the same name. It is the first song composed by Martin Galway for the SID chip.
While Galway was selling one of his friend's computer games to Ocean Software, he also tried to sell some of his music. However, Galway was still composing for the BBC Micro at the time, and Ocean didn't see much future for that platform. They lent Galway a Commodore 64 and the source code of their sound engine. From this, Galway was able figure out how to make music for the SID chip, and his first finished song was this track.
