Videogame Music Transcriptions

Every now and then, I like to transcribe music from videogames into General MIDI, for fun and musical practice, and also as a tribute to some of my favourite musicians and soundtracks. They're made entirely by ear. Some of these have looppoints that work with Winamp and foobar2000 (foo_midi.) All MIDIs are created using a Yamaha MU100 sound module and as such are designed for Yamaha XG midi devices, but those that specifically require them are denoted with an "(XG)" tag (so if they do not play properly on your device/player, that's why.) My sequences can also be found at vgmusic.com, and videos of them can be seen at youtube.

As these songs are all originally from commercial games, I do not own the Copyright to any of them, so any subsequent use of these files in your projects should be clarified with the Copyright owners rather than me (in other words, I don't mind what you do with these, that's the concern of the game companies.) However, I would appreciate an e-mail, credit and a link back to my site if you do use the sequences for anything (like GXSCC/8bit versions on youtube, fangames, etc.)

For a guide on how I transcribe songs into MIDI format, check here.
