This dataset is a collection of mel-spectrogram features extracted from Indian semi-classical music containing the following 9 semi-classical styles:
Bhajan, Chaiti, Dadra, Ghazal, Kajri, Natya Sangeet, Qawwali, Tappa, Thumri.

The number of recordings varies from 25 (for Chaiti) to 50 in the mentioned styles representing the scarcity of availability of given folk styles on the Internet. There are at least 5 artists and a maximum of 13. Overall there are 48 artists (36 female + 12 male) in these 9 semi-classical styles. 
There is a total of 425 recordings in the dataset, with a total duration of 54.69 hrs.
