One day, TheTrustedComputer made a video called "Synthesia - Night of Nights 1.1 Million" and a year later it became the most viewed black MIDI with over 1 million views since August 2013. Soon, TheSuperMarioBros2 found him and they both formed the Black MIDI Team (which is now known as the Black MIDI Crews). TheTrustedComputer kept uploading black MIDIs and became pretty popular. This MIDI was made by a Japanese blacker. TheTrustedComputer, who is now a famous blacker, uploaded a black MIDI of Last Brutal Sister Flandre S containing 280,122 notes. (According to the Impossible Music Wiki, "Consequently, it made Touhou fans and 'otakus' very enraged because of the use of the name." As a Touhou fan I can completely agree with this.) Black MIDIs on YouTube were abandoned until somewhere around 2012. That's way different from Last Brutal Sister Flandre S. So many people believe it to be Death Waltz now, I'm quite surprised. Around 2010, a South Korean user on YouTube uploaded a black MIDI of Last Brutal Sister Flandre S under the name of "john stump - death waltz."* That's the confusion there. He uploaded them to Nico Nico Douga and YouTube in 2011. Let's listen to the original song and black MIDI for both of those.


One user was Kakakakaito1998 (also known as KKK from his Nico Nico Douga account), who made black MIDIs such as Bad Apple!! feat. Over the years, users on Nico Nico Douga were inspired to make their own black MIDIs. Let's listen to the original song for this one and the black MIDI for this one as well.

A year later, Shirasagi Yukki Kuro Yuki Gohan uploaded a black MIDI of the song Night of Nights, a COOL&CREATE remix of Flowering Night (Sakuya's theme from the 9th Touhou Project game, Phantasmagoria of Flower View). Let's listen to the song itself and then this first black MIDI. Last Brutal Sister Flandre S was one of the first U.N. Owen was Her? (also known as Flandre's Theme) by COOL&CREATE called Last Brutal Sister Flandre S or Final Savage Sister Flandre S (mistakenly known as Death Waltz). Black MIDI first started on Nico Nico Douga (many would call it a Japanese version of YouTube), when Shirasagi Yukki Kuro Yuki Gohan uploaded the first black MIDI, which was a remix of U.N. Let's go into the history of the black MIDI.
