Both topical and timeless, Is There Anybody Out There? combines themes like space travelling, love and loss. It captures the emotional weight of distance, disconnection and longing, and the feeling of being cut off and searching for connection in the emptiness of space and humanity.

Is There Anybody Out There? by Young Martyrs is the new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. It will be prominently displayed at the top of the blog for an entire week.
