I've developed a bit of an obsession with Antarctica over the last few years. It started with learning about the incredible voyage of survival by Ernest Shackleton between 1914 - 1917. From there I read up on Amundsen, Scott, and the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration.
Recently I started a new book on Antarctica and I thought a mix to go with my reading with be cool. I decided to go with a more organic sound. It seemed to fit better when thinking of journeys happening between 1905 to 1917. There are some electronics and synths that show up but generally, the mix has a more acoustic, orchestral feel.
The track titles tell a story that is a composite of many expeditions in Antarctica. So be sure to check out the titles in the tracklist in the comments.
