southing music scenes

[icon_of_sin]

Interacting with certain objects in the game makes soothing music play.

There is a block tunnel near the start of the game that does this.

What is the point of these?

They are things from the OG game. They aren't exactly explained in the game, but there's a fan theory called "loop theory" claiming that James has gone through the events of the game many times and the town has changed over time (which makes no sense anyway because it's implied that the town is abandoned, so why would its structure change?), and James is having deja-vu's from the times when things were different.

The tunnel at the beginning was the place where you met the first monster in OG, but the monster's appereance was moved to the random apartment in the middle of the town.

I personallity think they are just for fanservice. Puzzles, keys etc. have been changed from the OG and there's many places where you see an old key or a spot where a puzzle should be in the OG, and you see that effect on the screen. Sort of like "remember this thing?".
