91 When woods go weird
31:30 | Episode: 91 | October 30th, 2021
Three years ago we made another overnight recording at the edge of a rural wood. It turned out to be one of those night’s when almost nothing stirred, just the faintest susurrations of wind in trees and the occasional crick of a dark bush cricket, hidden amongst the thick brambles that grew around the taught wire fence where we tied the microphones. Nothing happening, for hour upon hour. It seemed it wouldn’t make even one episode.
90 Wind on water, night curlews, rain later (sleep safe)
39:25 | Episode: 90 | October 23rd, 2021
Deep and spaciously detailed night quiet, at the edge of the tidal river Crouch in rural Essex. Wind on water. Rain on water. Night birds over water. Water upon water. A real piece of time, captured from one rainy inclement night in August by a pair of weatherproofed microphones tied to a seawall railing in Burnham-on-Crouch.
89 The birds of the leafy ravine – a tonic for tired minds (best with headphones)
37:16 | Episode: 89 | October 16th, 2021
We’re going back to early June this year, to the rich and intermingled singing of birds that happens at dawn throughout the spring and early summer. In Britain it’s called the dawn chorus, a behaviour associated with song birds during the breeding season.
88 An afternoon at Wrabness (part 2)
45:06 | Episode: 88 | October 9th, 2021
Above the mud silt beach, it’s all bright clouds, moving. Then the sun breaks through. The river is stretching wide here, left to right, silently carrying the land’s outflow through marshes, and out to sea. Warm wind blows in between long spells of calm. Close by, on the tree holding the microphones, and almost within touching distance, small waxy leaves rustle in the summer breeze.
87 Sky landing – when the wind bends the trees
32:00 | Episode: 87 | October 2nd, 2021
They look as if they are swimming in it. The banks of trees. Tense into the current, swaying, twisting in sympathy with the changing wind. Like they’re wading out into on-coming waves, wading out to be washed in this force of sky, landing.
Night tide turning at pillbox point (sleep safe)
34:14 | Episode: 86 | September 25th, 2021
High tide on the River Crouch. Night. Not a soul about. Small bobbly waves gamboling along the brimming tideline. Playful, in swilling swirls, reaching for one more inch of land, before the ebb. From the east, a lazy wind muffles.
Afternoon meadow in late summer
31:23 | Episode: 85 | September 18th, 2021
Last day of August. Pleasant sunshine, blue sky. Wind 1 to 2 knots, barely noticeable. Standing tall with motionless leaves, the trees are leaning into the warmth, letting their limbs soak up every available ounce of the sun’s golden heat. Along the old bridleway, away from the grey noise of a cross-country road, quiet fields are revealed. Knee deep with grass. Waiting to be mown.
Down at the marina on a weekday in August
37:19 | Episode: 84 | September 11th, 2021
Sunlit pontoons. Taut ropes. Empty footways. Still, like a photograph. So many boats moored up, waiting for someone to come down to sail them. This is the marina at Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex, where to the eye, on this hot summer day in August, everything looks still. To the ear though, it’s a different story.
