Indian Classical: the Khamaj thaat

• Khamaj — Mixolydian with both ♮7 and ♭7 (ascending/descending difference). Sensuous, romantic.
• Des — Mixolydian pentatonic (omits 2nd & 6th). Patriotic, folk-like (Late night).
• Jaijaiwanti — Mixolydian with both ♭3 and ♮3 — complex chromatic tension. Majestic, complex (Midnight).
• Tilak Kamod — Mixolydian with added ♭3 colour notes. Light, amorous (Night).
• Jhinjhoti — Mixolydian ♭3 (between Dorian and Mixolydian). Gentle, devotional (Night).
