TL;DR: 8bitMusicTheory breaks down Masashi Hamauzu’s signature “Sus Chord Slash Chord” trick—a versatile, color-rich harmony staple in his Final Fantasy scores. You’ll learn how to build and layer fancy extensions that give you those lush, cinematic vibes.
He walks you through:
- Crafting that Suspended Chord Slash Chord foundation
- Dialing in a dreamy Minor 11 flavor
- Spicing things up with Maj 13 and Maj 7#11 twists
- Adding a sweet first-inversion Maj 2 lift …then shows how to combine them all into one gorgeous, Hamauzu-worthy progression.
