Nine Sols was probably my favourite game of 2024 and while most of the soundtrack is pretty ambient and hard to talk about from a nerdy music theory perspective, Ji's theme features some very cool chords that I just had to delve into on the channel.

0:00 - Nine Sols Rocks
1:25 - That First Chord
4:10 - What The Hell Is That
5:23 - The Connection Between Timbre and Dissonance
6:40 - Here Come the Strings
7:27 - Hopeful B section
10:47 - Ambiguous Ending
