Karaoke songs were originally recorded with live bands but this has become very expensive. Karaoke has its origins in Japan and popular around the world. MIDI Karaoke files are MIDI format backing tracks.

MIDI song files are identified as 'MIDI File' or 'MIDI Karaoke' under the song title. Some 'MIDI Files' (sometimes referred to as 'SMF' or 'Standard MIDI File') also include a melody guide. Both file types will 'load and play' in any MIDI File player.

MIDI Files and MIDI Karaoke Files are identical music data files with the exception that a 'MIDI Karaoke' file includes embedded 'scrolling' lyrics by default and can also include an optional removable MIDI melody guide.
