Fur Elise.rmi

 Mori: I was digging around in my '98 laptop for records reasons and... guys. Preinstalled on it is a whole slew of MIDI files of classical music, including Fur Elise, Clair de Lune, and In the Hall of the Mountain King. It's putrid. I can't stop listening to it. It is a thing of awe and horror, distilled into '90s computer game audio format.

When I started playing it, Bob dashed in like Pavlov's dog hearing a dinner bell.

We're just all grouped around Obsolete, listening with expressions of astonishment and pity as it does its damnedest to sing its little pre-Y2k heart out through its speakers. I might have to save these to a floppy disk and use them as phone alarms or something.

I am baffled as to why this antique still runs as well as it does.

EDIT: OH LORD IT HAS BACH'S BRANDENBURG CONCERTO

I miss listening to old-school MIDI files, especially on the older computers I used to have. Those files just don't translate the same when you need to convert them to mp3 to listen to them. :(

There are free MIDI player programs you can download! That was the only way we could listen to them on our current desktop.

I'll have to look for them, in that case! Thanks for the info! ^_^
