On examining the program you will see player 9 consists of a very simple bit of code which checks the keys and turns the volume of the appropriate player on or off.

As you can hear the music is just a collection of 'House Music' cliches. So maybe you could insert your own more creative tunes. It will however take some time before you've used up all the possible combinations of players.

I don't actually like house music but it's good fun to program and ideal for a computer/sequencer.
