Title : RAVEN MIDI Pack
Filename : heremidi.wad
Release date : 27 August 2020
Author : Jimmy & various

Misc. Author Info : He will taunt you a second time.
Description : Doomworld's composers band together to write more
another community-made album of custom MIDIs. This
time we're writing for one of the original
commercial sets - none other than "Heretic: Shadow
of the Serpent Riders".
The full version of Heretic comes with five full
episodes, plus a sixth if you count the three hidden
levels - for a total of 48 levels. Amazingly, the
number of pieces in the game's soundtrack amounted to
less than half that, with a total of 19 unique in-game
tracks and 3 more for the title, intermission and
story themes.
Heretic's soundtrack is a crazy blend of disparate
elements combining into the almost inimitable style of
Kevin Schilder. With his work in mind, we have once
again put our composer hats on, and our skills to the
test, to fully expand the soundtrack for Heretic!
Additional Credits to : Every one of you who contributed. Great work,
all! :D A full list of the tracks and authors is below.
