Starting from the earliest known work [[Tholkappiyam]] (500 BCE), there are several references to music and ''Panns'' in the ancient pre-Sangam and [[Sangam literature]] starting from the earliest known work [[Tholkappiyam]] (500 BCE). Among Sangam literature, ''[[Mathuraikkanci]]'' refers to women singing ''sevvazhi pann'' to invoke the mercy of God during childbirth. In ''[[Tolkappiyam]]'', the five [[Sangam landscape|landscapes]] of the Sangam literature had each an associated ''Pann'', each describing the mood of the song associated with that landscape. Among the numerous ''panns'' that find mention in the ancient Tamil literature are, ''Ambal Pann'', which is suitable to be played on the flute, ''sevvazhi pann'' on the ''Yazh'' (lute), ''Nottiram'' and ''Sevvazhi'' expressing pathos, the captivating ''Kurinji pann'' and the invigorating ''Murudappann''. [[Pann]]({{langx|ta|பண்}}) is the melodic mode used by the [[Tamil people]] in [[Ancient Tamil music|their music]] since the ancient times.  The ancient ''panns'' over centuries evolved first into a [[pentatonic]] scale and later into the seven note Carnatic [[Swara|Sargam]]. But from the earliest times, Tamil Music is [[heptatonic]] and known as Ezhisai (ஏழிசை).<ref>Adiyarkunallar's commentary to the ''Aychiyarkkuravai'', the seventh book of [[Cilappatikaram]] gives the number of Srutis and how they were allotted among Seven notes. {{Harvnb|Rowell|2000|pp=138–144}}</ref>

Uttarakhandi folk music had its root in the lap of nature and the hilly terrain of the region. Common themes in the folk music of Uttarakhand are the beauty of nature, various seasons, festivals, religious traditions, cultural practices, folk stories, historical characters, and the bravery of ancestors. The folk songs of [[Uttarakhand]] are a reflection of the cultural heritage and the way people live their lives in the Himalayas. Musical instruments used in [[Uttarakhand]] music include the Dhol, Damoun, Hudka, Turri, Ransingha, Dholki, Daur, Thali, Bhankora and Masakbhaja. [[Tabla]] and [[Harmonium]] are also sometimes used, especially in recorded folk music from the 1960s onwards. Generic Indian and global musical instruments have been incorporated in modern popular folks by singers like Mohan Upreti, Narendra Singh Negi, Gopal Babu Goswami, and Chandra Singh Rahi.{{citation needed|date=February 2018}}

Dance music, more popularly called ''"[[Disc jockey|DJ]] music"'', is mostly played at nightclubs, parties, [[Weddings in India|weddings]] and other celebrations. It is more popular among youths. It is mostly based on Indian movie music as well as Indian pop music, both of which tend to borrow and modernise the classical and folk dance songs with modern instruments and other innovations.

In early 1960s [[Jazz]] pioneers such as [[John Coltrane]]—who recorded a composition entitled 'India' during the November 1961 sessions for his album [[Village Vanguard|''Live at the Village Vanguard'']] (the track was not released until 1963 on [[John Coltrane|Coltrane]]'s album ''[[Impressions (John Coltrane album)|Impressions]]'')—also embraced this fusion. [[George Harrison]] (of [[the Beatles]]) played the [[sitar]] on the song "[[Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)]]" in 1965, which sparked interest from Shankar, who subsequently took Harrison as his apprentice. [[Jazz]] innovator [[Miles Davis]] recorded and performed with musicians like Khalil Balakrishna, Bihari Sharma, and Badal Roy in his post-1968 electric ensembles. Virtuoso jazz guitarist John McLaughlin spent several years in Madurai learning Carnatic music and incorporated it into many of his acts including Shakti which featured prominent Indian musicians. Other Western artists such as the [[Grateful Dead]], [[Incredible String Band]], [[the Rolling Stones]], [[the Move]] and [[Traffic (band)|Traffic]] soon incorporated Indian influences and instruments, and added Indian performers.

In the late 1980s, Indian-British artists fused Indian and Western traditions to make the [[Asian Underground]]. Since the 1990s, Canadian born musician Nadaka who has spent most of his life in India, has been creating music that is an acoustic fusion of [[Indian classical music]] with western styles. One such singer who has merged the Bhakti sangeet tradition of India with the western non-Indian music is [[Krishna Das (singer)|Krishna Das]] and sells music records of his musical [[sadhana]]. Another example is the [[Indo-Canadian]] musician [[Vandana Vishwas]] who has experimented with western music in her 2013 album ''Monologues''.
