ONESTOP.MID ▀ GREAT MUSIC WRITTEN FOR TESTING PURPOSES BACK IN THE 90S

2024-06-30

Ok, we are almost in the middle of the summer.
Some words about computer music history to celebrate this.

Onestop.mid is a midi file found within the Windows Media folder on most Windows starting from Windows XP 
back in the 90s. It was composed by David Yackley. Despite Wikipedia assurance that the main purpose of it was 
an easter egg thing, music was mostly used as a troubleshooting demo song for Microsoft technicians, which 
was available on almost all Windows installations.

Here it is in all 90s glory.
I think that this is the most successful render of this MIDI file with proper instruments, where guitar looks like real guitar and so on.
