    Black midi composers tend to put in a lot of redundant and very quiet notes to get the note count up. They aren't really meant to be performable by humans unless they're simplified, although compound sounds are generally totally impossible (this is where they mess with the waveforms by stacking notes extremely close together). People put a lot of focus into adding visuals and either piling things in until it lags with powerful graphics/audio hardware, or greatly slows down the render time, but it's still important to remember it's a musical genre, and it's good to focus on the piece sounding good and using the notes to help add auditory details and quality. Rush E 2 and a couple of Touhou tracks uploaded early on by TheBrowntown21 seem to do this fairly well.

    This is a very interesting video, it was cool how you stopped at each section as the midi got more impossible and explain it. It's always nice too see someone how actually knows what they're talking about, and not just some random kid saying "just roll on the piano to play this!!"

    Voiceplay is an acapella group known as the Theater Kids because they love to dress up in their videos. They are also very comical but keep true to the music but putting their own spin on the videos.
    They recently released a video of this. Dressing up as trolls around a cauldron.
    I would love for you to react to it beings you reached to this.
    Great reaction btw.

    Call me a philistine, but I don't get it. We've sacrificed everything remotely close to a melody in favor of re-creating tribal tattoos and Metroid levels using the keystrokes? Why? It's discordant and cacophonous, it's impossible for a human to play, and the whole thing sounds like you stuck an old-timey saloon piano into a blender. Go home, midi sequencer: you're drunk.
    But for everyone else, try this exercise out: walk up to a piano, open your hand up and turn it sideways, and then mash it down on any seven consecutive keys that you can find. Congratulations, you sound better than this.
