Neat concept! Haven't read the books yet (so I skipped the spoiler tag for now), but I hear good things so it sounds like I'll have to give them a shot. Haven't seen the show either, so I'm not familiar with the music direction, but I bet this track could be the backbone of a stellar montage collecting the best bits of the show. I dig your songwriting style anyway, so I'm biased, but I think any storyteller would be lucky to have you lending your music to their project.

Enjoyed the books a while back - this is not what I expected but I love this take . Why can't we just get along with our trisolaran friends? The earthers should've tried broadcasting a nice catchy song like this into space.

love how to vocals kind of slide around like the guitar. Excellent bass work. Great doubled vocals. Love this one! Favoriting!

Such nice work here.

I watched the show but it made me want to read the actual books instead I took issue with some of the execution but it got me curious to explore more which is a good thing:)

It's such a great scifi concept though. This is a nice homage to the core of the story conflict. There is a Star Trek TNG episode where the enterprise makes first contact with a planet who's people are not ready and it devolves into a similar fearful escalation but with a different tone and spin. It's almost like seeing it from the flipped perspective. Very cool stuff.

Great rhythm section on this track.  I really like the panning on the hats (and snare maybe?).  The movement adds a really nice bouncy quality, and augments bass really nicely.  Great groove.

Beautifully done, as always, and the subject matter is fascinating, too. "Dark Forest" was my favorite book in the series, this idea was entirely novel to me, but provides a decent explanation for the Fermi paradox. It's very bleak, sure, but as you point out in your lyrics, we won't live to experience whether it's true or not. And that is in many ways even bleaker. Which makes spending time on what we love the only sensible thing to do. Hence, I applaud Weekly Beats and your music in particular! Thanks for sharing.
