The Plutonia MIDI Pack is a music pack for The Plutonia Experiment, released on 8 October 2013. It is vanilla compatible in the sense that all tracks can be played back in vanilla Doom. An optional add-on WAD for ZDoom based ports uses an ACS script to display the track name and its respective author at the start of a level. The separate MIDI files are also included, alongside some unused tracks.

The project was initiated in March 2013 by James Paddock (Jimmy), who had the idea that one of the greatest divides between Plutonia and TNT: Evilution - the other half of Final Doom - was that the latter had its own soundtrack for the most part, while the former used Doom and Doom II music tracks exclusively. The idea of the project was well received, and after just over a month, in April 2013, an alpha version was released. This was followed by a beta release in July, and a final release in October.

Since the Plutonia IWAD has the same music lump names as Doom II, this music pack can be used with either game, as well as the many fan-made mapsets for Doom II.

In 2023, the Plutonia MIDI Pack was included in Doomworld's Doot Eternal music feature for Doom's 30th anniversary.
