233 Rain – Intermission 3
53:42 | Episode: 237 | August 17th, 2024
Welcome to intermission 3 of 4 and another specially blended soundscape taken from the last year of Lento. The theme is rain. Gorgeous, refreshing, soothing rain. Four sound-scenes that reveal the way falling rain varies in texture and feel across four different locations.
232 Waves and shorelines – Intermission 2
47:10 | Episode: 236 | August 11th, 2024
Welcome to intermission 2, the second specially blended soundscape from the past year of Lento. This week’s theme is waves and shorelines. There are four sections that blend effortlessly into each other. The sound-view into each watery place lasts around eleven minutes and enables you to compare and contrast the wide variations in aural detail from place to place, beach to beach, and at different times of the day and night.
231 Streams and rivers – Intermission 1
43:52 | Episode: 235 | August 4th, 2024
Welcome to our first intermission episode. August is an especially busy recording month for us so while we are away, we want to share with you some specially blended soundscapes from the past year of Lento. This week’s theme is streams and rivers. There are four sections that blend effortlessly into each other. The sound-view into each watery place lasts around eleven minutes. 209 Downstream of the old mill Steep meadows all about, sloping down into a water meadow in the Derbyshire hills. The water’s running fast. So much rain. The woodland birds are singing across the valley in their full spring song. This is dawn, on a wonderfully bright spring morning.
230 Murmuring firs of Kielder Forest
50:52 | Episode: 234 | July 27th, 2024
Fir trees don’t have what you might call normal leaves. Their leaves are needles. Each tree possesses many needles, too many to count. Especially when the height of these trees ranges from 12 to 23 stories high. Concentrated in these myriad tiny needles, is a wonderful and special power. Position yourself deep within a fir forest, with even the slightest of breezes blowing high above, and you’ll feel it.
229 Dusk dissolves to night in the cathedral of trees
45:16 | Episode: 233 | July 20th, 2024
On a warm May evening deep in the Forest of Dean, the sound of dusk is alive with birdsong from many different species. The air literally fizzes with the energy produced by avian communications. Their calls and songs echo over long distances, they reflect and bounce from tree trunk to tree trunk, reverberate and dissipate. It’s the sheer quantity of solid surfaces that give this aural environment the quality of being inside a cathedral. A cathedral of trees.
228 Summer rain under the wisteria (sleep safe)
40:56 | Episode: 232 | July 13th, 2024
Earlier this week we left the Lento box out to record overnight. Persistent rain was forecast from midnight onwards after a spell of dry weather. We never lose interest in the sound of falling rain. Being outside during a shower invokes strong feelings that must have evolved over millions of years.
227 Light rain on the headland (sleep safe)
44:03 | Episode: 231 | July 7th, 2024
Being out on a headland is an experience as fresh as it is freeing. Fresh because these steep craggy places resound continuously, without end, with the effects of ocean and wild weather. Freeing, because they let you feel with all your senses, the reality of the world. A world seven tenths covered in water.
226 Perhaps a perfect upland stream (sleep safe)
54:06 | Episode: 230 | June 30th, 2024
Perhaps it is, though you may know of one even more perfect. This stream follows a country road high in the empty hills above the small town of Ceri in the Welsh county of Powys. We’ve shared many sections from this 2019 recording over the four years of Lento. The area feels magical, being very near to the Ceri Ridgeway (Kerry in English) an ancient route used for trading between Wales and England. This section of time is from the dead of night where no wildlife is audible, the entire focus is of the stream, and the acoustical properties of the hidden dell ankle deep in dry leaves.
