When a Kurzgesagt civilisation building game finally comes out in a few decades, this OST better make it in!

[@michaelc.5809]

Imagine a kurzgesagt version of Stellaris. That'd be cool

[@StratosphereTHAI]

heard they are working on some game/visual novel stuff

[@pixalated45]

i will make that game a reality

[@Terrible_fate]

[@samchiu9918]

Come for the science, stay for the music.

[@posswards5149]

2:58 is the best part imo. This song has to be the best one yet since it combines the amazing alien scale with Dyson sphere and stellar engine.

[@RyuSDS88]

I was afraid that you won't release this because It was like a spectacular remake of the Kardeshev Scale. Very happy to be wrong ❤ it's just incredibile how you can create such music. Don't ever stop

[@ez_theta_z9317]

all the climate ones are similar to each other, plus Alien Horror was already very much based on Kardashev Scale's music

[@flandrescarlet506]

Epic Mountain likes to use Leitmotifs in most of their tracks, it's really cool! This song is basically a remix of the Kardeshev Scale, Alien Horror is a mix between the Kardeshev Scale and the Fermi Paradox, Emergence is a mix between Life and Time

[@rogueascendant6611]

We humans are a prideful arrogant species. We think ourselves so self-centered that the Universe revolve around us and think we are the only one in this grand cosmos we lived. But in the end, we are just being deliberately stupid for thinking about that. Egos and pride are nothing compared to the stars above and beyond what's lurking in there than just us.

[@StratosphereTHAI]

@@flandrescarlet506 one of the most interesting epic mountain's Leitmotif for me is the Geigercounter in those nuclear topic, it is a neat bass, yet sound so horrifying

[@flandrescarlet506]

@@StratosphereTHAI Which songs?

[@lilypadbear]

I love all of the alien soundtracks! They get better each time

[@GeorgeTankerYT]

Toby Fox: Finally, a worthy opponent, our leitmotifs will be legendary!

[@hhlangoo]

Straight to the favorite playlist. Absolutely love the stellar engines touches

[@samchiu9918]

I absolutely love the inclusion of motifs from Alien Scale; it is one of my favourites.

[@boiboi505]

This song gives off the vibes that you're gonna look out the window and see a whole ass moon coming towards you

[@ASR_0610]

That's no moon.

[@Good_Gamez]

This song has *invaded* my favorites playlist

[@Jazaen]

And so the Dyson Sphere - Solar Engine - Kardashev Scale theme continues to propagate - amazing! Though I think I hear some Dark Forest in there too? 🤔

[@FBManimations]

Wait when did the dyson sphere leitmotif show up?

[@Jazaen]

For a short moment starting 4:56 - it's not as strong as Stellar Engines earlier, since the instrumentation doesn't change to emphasize it, but it's there.

[@FBManimations]

@@Jazaen oh wow that's actually really well hidden, thank you, I would have missed it. So now I know it appears in at least four soundtracks (dyson sphere, alien scale, alien invasion and world war alien), does it appear anywhere else?

[@tops1954]

@@FBManimationsu can hear alien horror at the beginning & at 4:33

[@FBManimations]

@@tops1954 isn't that one of the aliens leitmotiv that are also in Alien Scale?

[@happymaster19]

Just like Alien Scale, a very tasty chord prog at 1:05 and I love the one at 4:59. There's something chilling at 5:35. An icy wail like something absolutely screaming from very far away.

[@Otoma]

I have to admit, that I never paid much attention to the kurzgesagt songs in the Background, but this episode I had this song in my head for days. I really love this one. I am so happy that it's uploaded separately here. I will check out the other songs too!

[@xofox_studio]

Bruh, everytime Kurzgesagt dropped a new video, this is my 2nd channel I go to

[@That_Russel_Pup]

Lol same 😅

[@thunderjay6300]

2:11 gave me goosebumps 😍

[@nissaelkhoury551]

Me too.

[@tops1954]

1:21 beat drop hits the hardest imo. This is definitely one of the tracks of all time. The catchiest one to date. Epic remix of (Kardashev) Alien Scale but with an astral vibe and (Dark Forest) Alien Horror at the beginning & at 4:30 (which I’msurprised no one noticed) & a bit of stellar engine/dyson sphere/terraforming venus in there. 6:53 is the best part due to how chill, calming, and mysterious it sounds… If I'm not wrong 0:00 & 4:30 are references to Terraforming Venus which is a nice touch.

[@anwarulbashirshuaib5673]

6:35 that little touch of "Stellar Engine" was brilliantly done!

[@CelestialityRW]

2:20 this part (the synth in the back -ish) really reminds me of portal 2 for some reason

[@gearboxoverride2371]

"There she is", my man.

[@TableExtract]

I immediately shot up as soon as I saw this in my notifications, your music is just so dang good

[@iainmichealogilviewarnock9026]

this song makes me feel insignificance, hope, wonder, dread, determination, curiosity and lonliness in no particular order.

[@ateteu_]

this is easily in my top 3 fav kurzgesagt's soundtracks

[@gabparent1266]

Thank you Thomas and Fabian we love you ❤

[@The_the_Levi]

amazing music! the song really gets u both exited a bit scared of the unknown and the advanced aliens vibes gets u feeling like ur nothing in the scale of them

[@cellsgis1105]

Oh god its so great

[@mr.boomguy]

The video felt like a fever dream. And so does the track

[@MrHeartbleed]

I just love how you use the leitmotif of Stellar Engines here. (now 3 songs connected [Alien invasion, Stellar Engines and Dyson Sphere]) 💙💜

[@NoobsailerRBH]

How do you guys always hit?! It's amazing.

Why does Epic Mountain alway make me feel I've stumbled apon some vast alien intellect or space craft and I'm having a wild journey through time and space getting my tiny mind blown to bits at the wonders I'm seeing????

@@iainmichealogilviewarnock9026 yeah I knew that that's how I knew this from years ago

[@BeeDaWorker]

This soundtrack really sounds like the the Kardashev Scale, Stellar Engine and Dyson Sphere remixed and combined, and it sounded amazing for the video! Keep it up Epic Mountain! Also can't forget the behind the lies remix at the end! (Should've included it in together here too tho)

[@PapilioMulticaudata]

There's also some Black Hole Bomb throughout, too!

[@tops1954]

You can hear alien horror at the beginning & 4:30 there as well

[@MrTheDudeManGuy]

one thing you can never change, is humans love for music

[@Stan3.0-m6g]

This is almost like something you'd hear during one of those silly alien invasion games, and I support it fully.

[@drabberfrog]

I really liked this soundtrack, it's such a good remix of the Kardashev Scale and Stellar Engines music

[@sn1524]

remix of Alien Scale...love it!

[@Juanisonic]

2:42 That melody sounds familiar. Is this the main part of the stellar engine song?

[@tops1954]

Correct. They use motifs from their older songs. This one is a mix of alien scale & stellar engine with a touch of dyson sphere

[@ramonasosna]

This music is truly amazing, and I do feel a whole lot from it.

[@Steleaf]

no shot they made alien scale II, one of my favorite osts from you guys

[@flandrescarlet506]

If you like Alien Scale, check out Alien Horror too! Alien Scale is in that one with a mix of Fermi Paradox and existentialism

@@iainmichealogilviewarnock9026 I'm pretty sure Epic Mountain is the composer of the music, in collaboration with the science videos. Then they put the music on their own channel so people can listen without the actual science video over the music.
