                                                        MIDI files

                                             In General MIDI format


This is a compilation (yes, another) of all those wonderful sountrack and title
themes buzzing around on the net that I have downloaded, messed around with,
renamed tracks, edited, converted, shunted and generally tried to make sound better
on your average General MIDI compatible set-up. These were all done for the
Roland Sound Canvas (what a machine) so you GUS guys 'n gals may have to
tweak a few knobs here and there. Apologies and many thanks to all the original
composers and sequencees who have contributed albeit unknowingly.
Any complaints - E mail me.

The files are thus :

ADDAMSFM.MID - The Addams family theme tune (converted from MT32)
AXEL_F.MID - Axel F from Beverly Hills cop (from MT32)
BADWOLF.MID - Who's afraid of the big.... (not Virginia). Various Disney
     cartoons etc.
BATMAN.MID - Theme from the film (no, not the <<KAPOW>> TV series).
     Mean &moody.
BEACHES.MID - Theme from the film of the same name strangely enough.
BEAUTAND.MID - Theme from Beauty and the Beast  TV series - that guy with
     lots of unrealistic make-up.
BEINGTHR.MID - Theme from that excellent film Being There.
BLADERUN.MID - End titles theme from Bladerunner - Vangelis at his best.
     Tweaked and edited so it plays on the Sound Canvas without note drop out
     (24 polyphony)
CHEERS.MID - From the TV series
DAS-BOOT.MID - Yes another version of that file that has pervaded just about
     every archive in existence - Theme from German film about the U-Boat.
DEEPSPC9.MID - Theme from Deep Space Nine. Don't know how realistic it is
     because I haven't seen the original (does anyone in the UK have Sky?)
EYETIGER.MID - Theme from Rocky by Survivor - that one all those boxers play
     to out-psych their opponent.
GHOST.MID - Theme from film about Patrick Swayze and a potters wheel.
GODFATHR.MID - Marlon Brando and a mouth full of cotton wool.
HALLOWEN.MID - Theme from Halloween by John Carpenter. "Let's go down to
     the basement Brad and see what that noise was......"
JURASSIC.MID - Theme from Jurassic Pork - that film about the prehistoric pigs.
LOVESTRY.MID - Theme from Lovestory.
MIAMIVIC.MID - Theme from Miami Vice by Jan (Yan?) Hammer. Lot's of big
     cars and guns.

     break?

     to have guns in it!
TWINPEAK.MID - Tweaked version of Twin Peaks main theme. What a program.

down the government.
