TOWN.MID played on the Roland MT-32

[Pizzaking19971]

Sounds like SNES music.

some midi songs from me are sended from midiarchive@azet.sk

[megamanfan3]

when playing this MIDI file, it sounds like that MIDI device is missing a few channels.

[streetzack]

man this sound different from the yahama i got

[robholx]

This sounds kind of like it's missing something important.

On another note; does anybody actually know where it came from, who composed it and why it's been included in all windows versions since ME?

@ Robholx

Town and Flourish were composed by Nathan Grigg, and Onestop was composed by David Yackley.

[robholx]

Interesting.. where did you find that out? Because I've been googling for that info a few times without finding it.

[MrXnews]

I found it at h t t p: / / cow [dot] neondragon [dot] net / index [dot] php / 1488 - Windows - Sounds - And - Music

@robholx it was orginally part of a game microsoft was going to make but got scrapped, so they left those in so people could test their pc's ability to play.mid files

[ThisIs2009]

[dusthillguy]

Truly a classic. I used to love listening to this back in 2001, when I got my first very own computer (which came with Windows Me).
