“Taal” Chakradars Part 3: Roopak Taal

These compositions are in Roopak taal, but they are chakradars that use other foreign taals in their tehais.

For the original compositions that inspired me, see this link:https://jamroktabla.com/2019/08/22/taal-chakradars/

I composed these 7 compositions, here is a description:
1.  chakradar that uses matta taal (9 beats) in the tehai (3xs)

2. chakradar that uses jhaptaal taal (10 beats) in the tehai (3xs)

3. chakradar that uses pancham sawari taal (15 beats) in the tehai (3xs)

4. chakradar that uses tintaal (16 beats) in the tehai (3xs)

5. chakradar that uses dadra taal (6 beats) in the 1st tehai section, matta taal (9 beats) in the 2nd tehai section, ektaal (12 beats) in the 3rd tehai section (all taals divisible by 3).

6. chakradar that uses dadra taal (6 beats) in the 1st tehai section at double time speed, in the 2nd tehai section at 3/4ths time speed, & in the 3rd tehai section at half time speed.

7. chakradar that uses jhaptaal taal (10 beats) in the 1st tehai section at double time speed, in the 2nd tehai section at 3/4ths time speed, & in the 3rd tehai section at half time speed.
