We're releasing this as special bonus content for our recent episode of UnEarthed: a wonderful little interview with Maggie Phillips and Jeff Russo, Alien: Earth's Music Supervisor and Composer, respectively! Among other duties, Maggie is behind the "needle drops" in the show—a hallmark of Hawley's style, and a thrilling (if somewhat divisive) addition to the Alien universe. And Jeff was kind enough to come back on just a couple months after his first appearance on Perfect Organism to take us behind some of his already iconic music cues, giving us a glimpse into his creative process. We're looking forward to bringing you more of these glimpses inside the making of Alien: Earth throughout the season. We will always be diligent to ensure any "spoilers" are only for the episodes in our most recent UnEarthed installments, so don't worry about accidentally walking into something you didn't know was coming. Make sure you tune in to the audio version of UnEarthed (as well as joining us on the livestreams at 9:15pm EST!), as that's where we'll be putting lots of interview excerpts in the coming weeks. We can't wait to share them with you! // New Episodes of UnEarthed drop an hour and 15 minutes after new episodes of Alien: Earth release on Tuesdays. // Join the new Perfect Organism subreddit, while you're at it!
