This is an excellent pressing. I haven't had the chance to listen to any of the original pressings, so I can't compare, but this one is incredibly dynamic and has that warm, analogue sound. I'm really happy with this release. The vinyl is super quiet, and there are no issues on either side A or B. It's a fantastic release. I think Music on Vinyl is a great label, and I've always been quite happy with their releases. Plus, they're not too expensive, and the packaging is always really classy.

This album is absolutely fantastic. It appears that Antarctica is somewhat overshadowed by the highly praised Blade Runner and Chariots Of Fire soundtracks, but that shouldn't stop you from experiencing this incredible music! In a sense, this could be considered either a full album or a single, as it features numerous variations on the Antarctica theme. However, I think with any soundtrack, you have a main melody that's creatively reimagined throughout. I believe "Antarctic Echoes" does this particularly well. It retains those familiar chimes but enhances the mood as if to suggest 'Part 2' of the theme. Some of the later tracks, though, deviate from the main theme, introducing new sounds and emotions. I haven't had the chance to see the film due to its rarity, but with such gorgeous background music, one can only imagine how effectively it's utilized in the movie, and I have no doubt that it is. This is Ambient music at its very best. Highly recommended!
This is an awesome dynamic pressing, with plenty of bass in the mastering. It's quiet too.
A gorgeous and tranquil album. Fits perfectly with the movie. The album isn't exactly like the film's soundtrack but the themes are present. A record I go to often to soothe the mind.
