The mantra is simple, don’t reinvent the wheel but regurgitate elements from other genres, making them accessible to the mainstream audience. Since its inception, pop music has borrowed a lot of influences and production techniques from lesser known and alternative genres Which is why it is still the numero uno genre and has barely seen any decline in popularity after all these decades. If you want to study the production tricks and methodology, here’s a list of some free MIDI files for Hip Hop, Trap and R&B. While R&B still enjoys popularity, Trap or Mumble Rap has produced stars such as Tekashi 6×9, Lil Pump, Post Malone to name a few. Trap is a subgenre that has become the mainstay of Hip-hop/Rap. The last couple of years have seen the rise of SoundCloud rappers, and trap music.

Once the SoundFont file is place and fluidsynth is installed, you can play a midi by using this command: fluidsynth -i /usr/local/share/fluidsynth/generaluser.v.1.44.sf2 ~/Music/example.mid I renamed that file and moved it to /usr/local/share/fluidsynth/generaluser.v.1.44.sf2.

Once you have downloaded and unzipped that, you will have a series of files including "GeneralUser GS FluidSynth v1.44.sf2" (obviously the name may change in the future).

The current version (as of ) is FluidSynth version 1.44. Christian Collins called "GeneralUser" which is free. Then you need a "SoundFont" file, which I had never heard of before. However, downloading fluidsynth only gets you part-way there.

(MacPorts' command would be sudo port install fluidsynth and Fink's would be fink install fluidsynth.) Once Homebrew is installed, type this in Terminal: brew install fluidsynth To install it, you have to be using either Fink, MacPorts, or (my recommendation) Homebrew. However that will only autoplay if the user has enabled that preference, which I believe is off by default. Option #1: Download and install QuickTime 7 which still works fine on Mavericks, and then you can play midi files by: open -a QuickTime\ Player\ 7 /path/to/your/file.mid Therefore I believe that any solution will involve downloading and installing some other program.

QuickTime X cannot play MIDI files, although QuickTime 7 could.Īs far as I can tell that means that there is no "built-in" solution to playing MIDI files on Mac OS X (for example, afplay does not work). This turned out to be a more complicated problem than I originally expected.
