Making abc files of your favorite game music!

[Hagglefoot]

Just wanted to offer to make abc files of video game music. If you have a favorite song from a game post it and I'll see what I can do. I can make solo and multi-part abc files on request. Some songs, due to the instruments used and amount of instruments, might not be convertable but I will do my best!

Sample songs...

[Update]
I started a website so everyone can access the abc files previously requested. As always, you can request new abcs here or on the site in a comment.

Sorry everyone but I am no longer doing these. You can still get the abc files I have made in the past at the website listed, but I will not be making new ones. Thank you for your support!

Thank you for the kind words! I do try pretty hard to see which instrument sounds best and to make any tempo adjustments needed. A lot of songs don't quite fit the instruments used in this game so it can take some time with some of the more random songs.

As a heads up, there is a LOT of percussion in this song, so getting it to sound good with any one instrument is difficult. Use the acoustic guitar for best results. It's a bit slower than the normal song and lacks some of the notes, but it should be close enough to be enjoyed.

Yes, that sounds great! Thank you, much appreciated!

So... what you're saying is, you don't actually compose the song manually into a .abc file, you take a MIDI of the song and convert it?
Or am I looking at this the wrong way?

I take a midi file and convert it. There is some tinkering to be done however. An abc file is basically sheet music to tell the computer how to play instruments as a midi. They can be converted back and forth. For instance I could turn an abc file into a midi as well.

Ahh.. Fair enough.
I've actually tried my hand at recreating a song from scratch by making it into a MIDI, then converting that into a .abc file. Maybe I can do the same for Rainy Day.

I would appreciate it if You could make an ABC File of Gorillaz - Feel good inc. I Searched In google Gorillaz Feel good inc MIDI and It was the first Result.

Thank You!

I can't understand the website because it's in Russian. Download the file and upload it to dropbox, then give me the link.

Hey Hagglefoot, are you still taking requests? last time i requested a song was when you originally started this thread. if you are, do you think you can do Aeriths theme from final fantasy VII and Isaac Battle Theme from Golden Sun i would greatly apreciate it.


i've also been looking through your website and i was wondering if there was a way to download abc files in a series in one zipped file. i don't mind downloading them serperatly but it would make things alot easier.

I generally toss stuff up on the site when I've done enough requests from a series that it won't be a one song page. As for zip files, I was thinking of doing that for the more complete ones on there. Right now the site only accounts for about 25% of what I've done so far. Was thinking about putting a zip with all the ones I've done on there. There are a lot but the zip would only be around 300kb.

This one has to be done with multiple instruments to sound right. I couldn't find a way with just one because it relies heavily on bass and drums.

For some reason filedropper stopped working after the first file. Also, if you could tell me if the tempo sounds right on this one that would help me. Thanks.

This one didn't come out as well as I thought it would, but still I think it's close enough that you'll enjoy it.
