I stumbled across these whole browsing through a japanese youtube clone site, and I was simply shocked at how ... unbelievably insane these were. Never have I heard midis in such high quality and complexity, and the author puts in some "animation" for added entertainment.
He's created 5 of them so far, but I'll paste the 3 most intense ones here. The original site has higher sound quality than youtube, which is seriously a shame. Thus, I've manually downloaded the flv files and uploaded them to massmirror. They should eventually get uploaded here
edit*I didn't rename them to english filenames inside the rar file, so you might have to use manual extract getting the files out, and might have to rename the flies to english in order to play them in flvplayer, sorry about this. )
And here are the youtube links for you to watch/listen immidiately.
#2: Ultra-dense Mario Medley
#3: Kirby Medley
#4: Okkusennman (ie that Megaman song)
Hopefully he'll keep making more midi-animations; he's creating quite a stir with these it seems.
Btw you really do want to dl the pack I uploaded, b/c the sound quality is muchhh higher.

That's amazing...and how did you stumble across them? They were uploaded yesterday!!
They started being uploaded originally at the japanese video site on October 31st. I was going to upload them to stage 6 b/c I was pissed at the low sound quality, but couldnt find a convenient flv to divx converter so I relented to uploading the flv's themselves (i'll UL to stage6 and replace the links if someone can recommend me a program)

Would you happen to know what program he used to create the midis? I'm interested in making some.
haha I remember posting that very same video in the okkusennman thread at TL. The video you posted is mario paint, I have no idea what he's using in the videos in the op, I'll try to find out though.
Very cool. I've dabbled a little in midi before, but nothing this complex. What he did is probably created with a controller connected to a program like reason or cubase, maybe sonar. or, he placed all the notes himself with the mouse
Btw I just realized that although musically these might be less complex than the ones I posted originally, #1 and #5 are really fun in terms of the "animation" aspect, so here they are.
#1: Cheetahman (wtf?)
#5: FF4 Medley (apparently he was going for the "retro-game" feel with this, and was experimenting with colors and stuff. Said he spent too much time on this so he'll release it like this for now)
