282 Night train to Paris (sleep safe if you like trains)
00:51:22 | Episode: 287 | September 27th, 2025

The environment within the cabin of a sleeper train is, well, unusual. Quite contradictory. It feels empty when you first step in, but full seconds later. It has a dead quiet feel, whilst also being noisy. It affords little physical space to move about in, yet anything you accidentally drop ends up out of reach. It would feel claustrophobic too if it weren’t also strangely spatial when the lights are out. It has bareness and simplicity that somehow affords comfort. And the cabin often rocks about, as do you.

281 Night rain in the Pyrenees (sleep safe with chimes)
01:04:52 | Episode: 286 | September 15th, 2025

Beside the only road leading out of Sant Llorenc de la Muga we found a small group of trees. We didn’t have much time. The sky was pitch black and the ground beneath our feet was streaming with water that’d all come down a few minutes ago in a deluge with simultaneous flashes of forked lightening so powerful, so bright, they’d temporarily frozen us to the spot. We shone our torch from tree to tree, searching for a suitable trunk that might provide some shelter for the Lento box. The road was deserted. Traffic was not an issue. Only one more village lay beyond, where the road literally ended.      A patch of bare trunk came into view between rain soaked leaves. Around us every thing glistened. And dripped. Every shrub. Every branch. Every leaf.  To the eyes and to the ears it was a rich sparkling sensory experience, that seemed interchangeable. Reaching through we tied the Lento box onto the trunk, angled it onto the wide landscape scene, and left it to record alone through the night. 

280 Pyrenees thunder above watery valley
00:44:34 | Episode: 285 | September 4th, 2025

Our friends told us that in Sant Llorenc the weather changes towards the end of August. Endless days of thick summer heat gives way to something altogether more dramatic. Ominous black clouds the size of cities. Rain drops like translucent grapes. Fork lightening like you see at the cinema. Thunder, that carves open the sky, like unimaginably huge boulders crashing downwards from the high mountain peaks. 

279 Lento Long – Kielder Collection (180 minutes)
03:00:46 | Episode: 284 | August 20th, 2025

For this second August intermission we’ve once again brought together multiple recordings made across a location to share as one very long non-stop piece. 

278 Lento Long – Quantocks collection (180 minutes)
03:03:54 | Episode: 283 | August 12th, 2025

It’s August intermission time! This year we’ve decided to bring together recordings from various locations in a specific geographic area and share them as a very long non-stop episode. 

277 Emptiness within Shelve Wood at night – part II (sleep safe)
01:02:07 | Episode: 282 | July 31st, 2025

This week we’re returning to Shelve Wood in Shropshire to witness another hour from the unaccompanied overnight capture we made in June. This section of time includes the effects of a strong weather front. It sweeps over the dense woodland, creating rich spatial waves of naturally occurring white, brown and grey noise. 

276 First rain after drought (high definition spatial sound)
32:59 | Episode: 281 | July 22nd, 2025

It’s not often we record from the back garden. The spot is suburban. Grassy and full of tangled shrubs yes, and encircled by a sprawling wisteria too that visually at least gives a verdantly self contained feel. But foliage while beguiling the eye does not strain out the roads and street sounds of the city. Or the sky. Flight paved, plane lined, jet rumbled. No, quiet is never in abundance here. 

275 Dawn in an apple tree – Derbyshire hills
44:07 | Episode: 280 | July 13th, 2025

A bright April day has dawned in Derbyshire earlier in the spring. The air is unusually still for this time of year and this upland location. At just under a thousand feet barely a breeze is ruffling the trees surrounding the mics. These are the same trees that can be heard so powerfully in episode 250 – Moorland trees in mid-winter gales.
