The Phoenix Wright Musical Formula

**SPOILER ALERT**: the background footage in this video kinda spoils the second case in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All.

The Phoenix Wright series' courtroom drama is still just as compelling 20 years after the original game's release, in spite of its formulaic nature. This is in no small part due to the series' fantastic musical history, with tunes written to perfectly accompany and elevate our journey from nervously waiting for each trial to begin, to tearing apart the witnesses' testimony and cracking each case wide open. Join me as I break down the formula for the music of these trials and part of what makes these tunes tick.
