Forest

Forest, also known as FOREST.MID or Forest.mid is a midi file that was composed by Passport Designs, a company known for composing the popular 90s midi files, Passport & Canyon.

The song lasts for 1 minute, 39 seconds (1:39). It plays at 151 BPM.

Loading this midi file up in certain midi editing software also reveals that it has a cue titled "Forest 1:38".

There are also three unused empty Grand Acoustic Piano tracks in the midi file, all using Channel 16.

Packard Bell RMI Version
Another version of Forest.mid can be found hidden away on a Packard Bell Microsoft Multimedia Pack for Windows 1.0 CD.

The Forest midi file found on this CD has a few noticeable differences:
 * The midi file has been converted into an RMI midi file; it has a .rmi extension instead of .mid
 * The "Forest 1:38" cue has been moved into the Midi Comments
 * An extra empty track has been added
 * The original three empty tracks have been changed from Channel 16 to Channel 12
 * Two extra empty tracks have been added for some odd reason
 * An Out of Tune piano track has been added
 * Pad 4 (Choir) has been duplicated and has been changed into Lead 4 (Chiff)
 * The Music Box has been duplicated and has been changed into a Marimba
 * The Fretless Bass has been duplicated and has been changed into Electric Bass (Finger)

Listen to Midi
Since the midi file was designed to run on an OPL soundcard such as an OPL3, the midi file will sound drastically different on newer versions of Windows and Emulators since they use a Roland Wavetable General Midi soundcard.
