ABOUT ANALYSIS:
Part 02 is finally up and running. Here I take look at how Mitsuda created the atmosphere of the theme by using the sus4 Triad. While there is certainly more to this theme than only the use of suspensions, I found this to be one of the most interesting aspects, the second probably being the use of Rhythm… but I’m saving those theories for later! Anyways, check out this video to see great examples of how using small triads can have a HUGE impact on how your chords connect with one another!
