Monsoon by Ro Panuganti
Monsoon is a sequel to 2021's "The Storm" on Project Discover, following both the motif of brutal weather as well as loosely based around the emotion of cultural divide and inner conflict discovering identity. The track opens with gut-reactions and quick riffs, and slowly transitions into riffs inspired by Carnatic ornamentation and more Indian-inspired fusion. As the figurative protagonist travels through a monsoon, they experience devastation and anger at first but through recovery and reparation, can better understand where they are at. While The Storm follows a protagonist sailing a difficult storm in a more literal sense, Monsoon aims to position a protagonist as a stationary figure in the midst of the weather and forces them to adapt to survive.
Originally written as part of a concept album, Monsoon is a standalone single and exercise of progressive metal and fusion. In addition, Guitar Pro/PDF Tablature and Sheet Music is available for avid guitarists and a secondary "jam track" version is included without the lead guitar (available on release)
