    They would probably go "So? Big deal... we're already waayy ahead of this stereo sh*t". Other alien: "How's that?". First alien: "What rock you been living under? MONO of course!!!" Other alien: "Genius... just genius..." :hifive:

    They would blow the planet up and leave I'm sure.

    Word has it that the Ultraxians from Beta 4 in the Pinwheel Galaxy have 16 ears! And yes, they have 16-cup headphones, all with independent channels. They laugh at our primitive 7.1 systems.

    Probably it would sound like the chirping of birds or the buzzing of bees. Or maybe a bunch of croaking frogs. It says more about them than us.
    Well, there's a lot we don't know about these aliens, including how they hear sound in the first place, or if they do at all. If they do hear sound, then do they hear all the same frequency range? How do their brains (if that's what they have) process the time domain? Is their atmosphere heavier or lighter? What about the density and gravity of their planet?
    If all of that's the same, then you'd have to ask: do they have music? Is it really reasonable that it would be like ours?
    They'd be hearing music, past or present, absent any context. They wouldn't be familiar with our styles and the words would be gibberish to them, you know, alien. How much they would enjoy this would have more to do with how they already relate to sound than anything it would say about the progress of music today.
    All that considered, if they were checking it out over the centuries, they'd probably consider some of the electronic music more relatable than any folk music from history. So much of what makes such music enjoyable is understanding where it's coming from.

    They wouldn't think at all, since there are no aliens that look like Star Trek/Wars type aliens.

    Not the same but related; there's one big question about possible advanced aliens, namely capable of space travel and such.
    They could be so different from us they couldn't understand us, let alone communicate.

    They would exterminate the planet as a hazard to intelligent planets

    After listening to that piece, they would think:
    "If they still play and like such a stuff, let's them exist further"

    2 min later they watch this


    and they press the Nuke button without second thoughts:rofl::rofl:

    PS. You might think I'm a bit pessimistic... but! There's a possible happy ending scenario: they commit suicide after suffering that shit

    Aliens will try to communicate with the most important species on the planet. That would be the ants. ("Take us to your leader!" and such...) They would not use one tiny thought about our music. They would give a f***.

    By the way: who the f are "the aliens"?

    Nobody has the answer...

    They would possibly say " Take Us to Your Maynard." re: best song about Abduction.
