teej-old-melody.ogg

Though it is a simple sound; it is a collaborative effort with melody author and software developer to preserve the history of Teej season's melody pattern.

LMMS file is available upon request.

We created this short clip in 2020/2021.

Teej is a post-monsoon women festival. This sound tries to depict how it was sung during the 1980s and 1990s generation. The instrument should have been a bamboo flute, but by lacking a proper synthesizer, I used some other organ like instruments and clapping effects.

You should be able to re-create it with the notations I have attached below.

# Tempo: 321 bpm (between 280 - 321)
# Time Signature: 3/4 Beats
# Scale: F
# Peace: Khemta Taal
