Back in the early 60s some hackers at MIT wrote programs to do this.
I wasn't there -- I went to St. John's College (Annapolis, Md.: no
basketball team, no compulsory chapel, Great Books curriculum: mega
biblion mega kakon).  But a friend of mine at St. John's, who had hung
around the MIT campus radio station in his HS days, had a tape of
various funny stuff from WTBS, including two arrangements for PDP-8:
Bach's g minor fugue from "The Well-Tempered Clavier", and the pop
song "Downtown".  I still have them.
