297 Sonorous rural woodland before an approaching storm
Last week we took the Lento box to capture the natural soundscapes of rural Leicestershire and Rutland. Our visit coincided with the warmest May temperatures on record and as it turned out the most…
296 Looking out on Portland Harbour part 2
Here beneath the tree again, at the water's edge. Looking out on Portland Harbour. Left of scene the sunlit parapets of Nothe Fort. Ahead the flat sun-drenched sea, with lazy waves rolling in over…
295 Low tide on the causeway - part II (sleep safe with occasional herring gulls and oyster catchers)
A soundscene, of an island. Asleep. Between the tides. About this time last year we visited Burgh Island in Devon on the south west coast of England. We made two long-form overnight recordings while…
294 Dawn in Shelve Wood Shropshire with cuckoo
The moment we entered Shelve Wood we knew it was a perfect place to record. Shropshire is sparsely populated. There's only one B road in the Shelve Wood area. The country lanes carry little traffic,…
293 Pools of Rye Harbour (sleep safe)
The Lento box records alone, tied to a tree, behind thickets of gorse. The night hours pass. The microphones capture the panoramic peace of this wild coastal landscape. Rye Harbour Nature Reserve on…
292 Moorland trees in December gales - Derbyshire (sleep safe after owls at start)
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…
291 High tide turning - the Crouch Estuary in Essex (sleep safe)
The waves settle into wavelets. The wavelets settle to calm. Then it's just the pure sound of estuary emptiness, at night. Following on from episode 288 it's several hours later, about 4 in the…
290 Night rain in the Pyrenees (sleep safe)
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…
289 Dawn birds of rural Shropshire
Welcome back to Radio Lento and a new year of captured quiet from natural places. It's so good you are here. To open 2026 we're heading back to rural Shropshire which we visited last year thanks to a…
288 Tidal estuary at night (sleep safe with plane at 23m)
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…
287 Dusk on Boggle Hole beach - North Yorkshire coast
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…
286 Night crickets of the Kent coast (long sleep safe + some soft overflying planes)
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…
285 Late October on Chesil Beach (sleep safe)
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…
284 The wind of Long Mynd
Reaching the top of Long Mynd in rural Shropshire requires a good steady climb. The rocky footpath winds up and up, and so must you, if you want to get to the top. Most people do, as much for that…
283 Night trees of Boggle Hole (sleep safe)
Robin Hood's Bay on the North Yorkshire coast feels remote for England. It lies at the bottom of a very steep road that descends down from the road between Whitby and Scarborough. The sign at the top…
282 Night train to Paris (sleep safe if you like trains)
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…
281 Night rain in the Pyrenees (sleep safe with chimes)
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…
280 Pyrenees thunder above watery valley
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…
279 Lento Long - Kielder Collection (180 minutes)
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. This episode is our second ever "Lento…
278 Lento Long - Quantocks collection (180 minutes)
It's August intermission time! This year we've decided to bring together recordings from more than one location in a specific geographic area and share them as a long non-stop episode. This is our…
