E X P E D I T I O N | 1901 Discovery Expedition (Ambience + Ambient Synthwave)

The Discovery Expedition of 1901-1904, known officially as the British National Antarctic Expedition, was the first official British exploration of the Antarctic regions since the voyage of James Clark Ross sixty years earlier (1839-1843). Organized on a large scale under a joint committee of the Royal Society and the Royal Geographical Society (RGS), the new expedition carried out scientific research and geographical exploration in what was then largely an untouched continent. It launched the Antarctic careers of many who would become leading figures in the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration, including Robert Falcon Scott who led the expedition, Ernest Shackleton, Edward Wilson, Frank Wild, Tom Crean and William Lashly.
Its scientific results covered extensive ground in biology, zoology, geology, meteorology and magnetism. The expedition discovered the existence of the only snow-free Antarctic valleys, which contains the longest river of Antarctica. Further achievements included the discoveries of the Cape Crozier emperor penguin colony, King Edward VII Land, and the Polar Plateau (via the western mountains route) on which the South Pole is located. The expedition tried to reach the South Pole travelling as far as the Farthest South mark at a reported 82°17′S.

I love the use of the low frequencies.

Synthwave is especially powerful if you grew up on soviet documentaries. They were a fever dream, a surreal landscape filled with formulas, and explanations, underlined by nothing but synthwave. I don't know if it was some kind of deeply developed psychological method they had, but everything those documentaires did, it just felt perfect.

[@lorenzobellini4589]

Sorry, but u did really got my curiosity, what do you mean? Soviet documentaries? Fever dreams? Can we talk more about it?..

grabbed my attention also, can you link some of the documentaries?

An arctic expedition? The years are different of course, but it reminds me of a novel of a man chasing a monster...

I think I should definitely listen to this every time I'm reading it cuz it adds more to the creepy atmosphere the book has

These were days when my heart was volcanic
As the scoriac rivers that roll-
As the lavas that restlessly roll
Their sulphurous currents down Yaanek
In the ultimate climes of the pole-
That groan as they roll down Mount Yaanek
In the realms of the boreal pole.

Brave lot those who went exploring the world in wooden boats . Now people think they are in danger by harsh words on the Internet. Bravery is a foreign concept.

Glad I'm not the only one - I have to admit I like the overall vibe of the picture, but it's always disappointing to know I can't go find the artist and see what they like, what their inspiration is, what other work or projects they've done, etc. Unfortunately it's pretty clear this is going to be the new normal for stock pics like this
