# The Lakh MIDI Dataset v0.1
## About:
The Lakh MIDI dataset is a collection of 176,581 unique MIDI files, 45,129 of which have been matched and aligned to entries in the Million Song Dataset. Its goal is to facilitate large-scale music information retrieval, both symbolic (using the MIDI files alone) and audio content-based (using information extracted from the MIDI files as annotations for the matched audio files).

This is a mirror repository, and the dataset was origianlly curated by Collin Raffel. Please visit [his website](https://colinraffel.com/projects/lmd/) for more details.
