The Listening Planet: 50,000 Hours of Wildlife Recordings

US Life's work of Martyn Stewart free to listen 28/02/22

Matryn Stewart is a sound recordist, who specialises in recordings of nature. He's recorded in over 55 countries across a career of more than 55 years, with 90,000 pieces consisting of 50,000 hours of material in his collection. He's released the entire archive to listen to online, in order to inspire others and encourage us to protect the planet. Martyn was diagnosed with bone cancer in December 2020, and through contemplation of his own passing, he's released these recordings.

The mission of The Listening Planet is here:

The Listening Planet is an environment non-profit working to create a world where people live in harmony with the natural world and where together, all life thrives. Our goal is to express the voice of the natural world and, through the power of sound, awaken a connection deep inside all of us; a love, understanding and respect for the importance and fragility of the place we call home and a passion to safeguard its future.
