This paper proposes a method of identifying the mood underlying a piece of music by extracting suitable and robust features from music clip. To recognize the mood, Kmeans clustering and global thresholding was used. Three features were amalgamated to decide the mood tag of the musical piece. Mel frequency cepstral coefficients, frame energy and peak difference are the features of interest. These features were used for clustering and further achieving silhouette plot which formed the basis of deciding the limits of threshold for classification. Experiments were performed on a database of audio clips of various categories. The accuracy of the mood extracted is around 90% indicating that the proposed technique provides encouraging results.
