One of my first internet hobbies was finding every Beatles song in midi format on AOL in 1992 or 1993 or so.

Midi is so lame, yet soo cool...have you heard daytripper on midi then...fantastic! I got all a Beatles midi collection free when I bought a computer about 7yrs ago!

I can't bring myself to listen to an entire EC MIDI song. It's too painfully cheesy...I'm laughing myself into a coughing fit while listening to "Alison #2" as I type...

Could someone please tell this very un-hip old lady what the hell this is?

I like cheese probably better than anyone else here, but I don't want to live in a world with MIDI in it. I am scared of MIDI.

Please advise.

This is brilliant stuff. I especially like "Riot Act" and "Everyday I Write The Book." Genius.

Goody...embrace MIDI, don't fear it..embrace it!
It's the pan pipes of the computer music world! Just go to that site, and click on a song...listen, and you too will be hooked on the madness!
