Raptor: Call of the Shadows, and Hocus Pocus BGM

Both these games use MIDI files somehow embedded in their data files. Anyone know of any tools to rip them out, or of a website with the ripped BGMs?

Dunno if these are originals, but this is where I got my raptor midis.

Thanks FitzRoy. Sounds very close to the original game. It seems these were made with some kind of converter from the original.

Edit:
That site seems to be missing some tracks.

try this nach http://www.mirsoft.info/gmb/music_info. ... ==#dl_info

if it dos not sound like the original then try using a soundblaster 16 soundcard. or a midi player for dos within DOSbox.

Those are the same files franpa.
Although you have a good point, I should go try digging up my old SB16 floppies and use the included MIDI player in DOSBox.

Edit:
I see this site has Hocus Pocus too, thanks.

i would hazard a guess at the person making a MP3 and using that noteworthy program or whatever to convert to midi then simply apply the different instruments to each channel...

um, "original" hocus pocus music should be easy to find.
