This midi pack contains 11 midi’s from various sources, such as movies and TV.

Dances_with_wolves is calm and quiet, as are Forrest_Gump and Star_Trek_Voyager.
Both Mononoke and Jurassic start rather calm, but have a fast, and exciting end.

Raiders_Of_The_Lost_Arc is outstanding, but then again, so was the movie. The same goes for Starwars; outstanding. Both midi’s are very good gimmicks; you only have to hear the music and you are right back in the cinema, or where ever you were when you saw those movies.

Totorobeg and Totorobeg2 are very cheerful. Totoroend and Totoroend2 are somewhat cheerful and calm as well.

It is very nice to hear this music again, but I can not imagine that such recognisable music as from The Raiders of the Lost Ark, or from Star Wars could be used in a D-mod. It just does not seem right to use them for anything else. Or perhaps someone should make (another) game about those movies. That is the only remark I have, because the midi’s are great.

This is my first review, so I don't know much about how high I should rate something of this quality exactly, but this is a very good midid pack, so I am rating it a 9, an exceptional rating for an exceptional midi pack.
MONOKE: This is one of my favorites, calm then exciting, DANCES WITH WOLVES: Very calm sounds, with a drum for a beat, very interesting, the RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK: very exciting Indian Jones Theme song Music thing, TOTOROS: vary very little, mainly because they keep using the same loops, however the parts other than the loop are different, STAR TREK VOYAGER: not the calmest, but still quite calm none-the-less, JURASSIC: The longest one, and the one with the most loops, however they vary in volume and tone, some are very hard to hear, here and there, There are others that are easier to hear, here and there, FORREST GUMP: Very Calm, and yes I don't really have anything else to say about it.
Pros: Some very good music, some of it I have never heard (2 of them), the rest I have heard.
Cons/Loophole: Mostly Loops
Bottom Line: Other than the loops and parts being quiet to the point of inaudibility, these are some very good songs, however I think people would enjoy the music too much to pay attention to the game, but these are great for begginngs and endings, and for MP3 players.
