292 Moorland trees in December gales – Derbyshire (sleep safe after owls at start)
01:00:04 | Episode: 297 | February 12th, 2026
Exposed moorland trees create a strong natural source of undulating white noise when shouldering the brunt of a winter gale. The sounds they produce are uniquely enchanting and an absolute delight to experience. For us it’s the beating heart of what it is to be immersed in the great outdoors, and one of the reasons we set Radio Lento up in the first place. To capture and share the aural essences of the great outdoors for anyone (including ourselves) who want to experience but can’t always get out to feel time passing in a real natural place.
291 High tide turning – the Crouch Estuary in Essex (sleep safe)
00:49:24 | Episode: 296 | February 1st, 2026
The waves settle into wavelets. The wavelets settle to calm. Then it’s just the pure sound of estuary emptiness, at night.
290 Night rain in the Pyrenees (sleep safe)
01:02:33 | Episode: 295 | January 18th, 2026
We love the ambience of Sant Llorence de la Muga, a small village high in the Pyrenees. It’s a beautifully peaceful place but we know the sound of the bells every quarter are not ideal for those wanting to spend time with the rain, the open peacefulness of mountainous quiet, and the occasional beeps of what we think are nocturnal frogs. So, this passage of time is from episode 281, adjusted.
289 Dawn birds of rural Shropshire
01:15:24 | Episode: 294 | January 7th, 2026
Welcome back to Radio Lento and a new year of captured quiet from natural places. It’s so good you are here.
288 Tidal estuary at night (sleep safe with plane at 23m)
00:30:04 | Episode: 293 | December 13th, 2025
Tied to a railing, the Lento box records alone. It’s about two in the morning along the river bank east of Burnham-on-Crouch in Essex. Wind is blowing inland from the east, light, gusting to moderate. Sky dark, and heavy with cloud. Huge rainclouds are approaching, currently located out over the North Sea. When they arrive this whole area will be subjected to long periods of persistent, often squally rain, lasting well into the next day.
287 Dusk on Boggle Hole beach – North Yorkshire coast
00:45:07 | Episode: 292 | December 2nd, 2025
The still luminous sky above the sheer rock cliffs was turning an even deeper shade of blue, as we stepped down onto the wet sand of the beach at Boggle Hole. For a moment we just had to stand. Take it all in. Wide stretches of undulating sand. Half submerged boulders like sleeping elephants. Towering rock faces so vertical and so angled that they catch and reflect every breaking wave, every calling bird, every clack of a dislodged stone, back into your ears, so you hear them for a second time.
286 Night crickets of the Kent coast (long sleep safe + some soft overflying planes)
01:31:30 | Episode: 291 | November 16th, 2025
Capturing the sound-feel of real night quiet is special. It requires a lot of time and a location where quiet naturally occurs in more than just a fleeting way. Quiet is not silence. Silence is the absence of sound, whereas quiet happens when everything in the landscape is still audible. Just softer, and slower.
285 Late October on Chesil Beach (sleep safe)
00:31:55 | Episode: 290 | October 31st, 2025
The making of this high-definition sound photograph of Chesil Beach began thanks to the number 1 bus from Weymouth to Portland. As we stepped aboard, the sky felt low. Folded and layered with grey October cloud. Rain was in the forecast so we’d taken raincoats.
