Info from chikakitaari:

There are only 4 tunes actually, since I never played game itself
(it's damn hard) I can only tell that first tune is menu music.
And it's damn good! As of 01.06.12 anything sounds nice on latest
MUNT (grab it here: https://github.com/sergm/munt_devel/downloads)

Currently the sond bank must be correctly loaded before playing the 
midi files. Using MFPlay, it should be worthwile to try to inject the 
sound bank into the MIDI file to not need to pass through play 
MIDIOX-MIDIYOKE to play properly. However must be tried though.
(any re-sending of the preoperly injected files will be appreciated :) )

How to play these tunes properly in current state:
Fist of all you obviously need to download MUNT package. It's available
here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/munt

Now program & PCM ROM images from MT-32 or (better) CM-32L are needed.
These can be found on the net, just google.

After you're done with installing/unpacking there are 2 ways: use included 
driver to create virtual device, can't provide much info on this one, 
or use standalone player, this one will be decribed below.

Basically you can open MIDI file directly in that GUI, but that won't do 
because game uses some custom instruments. So, i suggest installing 
something like MIDIYoke and MIDIOX, first to use as input port in
emulator and output port in MIDIOX, second to send SysEx data to emulator.

After you're done, just use MIDI player of your choice to playback MIDI 
files (don't forget to set output port in player to input port in emulator).
