Scotland: Where the Wind Remembers
đź“ť Episode Synopsis:
In this deeply personal episode, Martyn Stewart takes us on an evocative journey through the soundscapes of Scotland—a land he calls home in heart, soul, and spirit. From the soft rustle of winds in the Lowlands to the haunting cries of curlews above Culloden Moor, Martyn reflects on his decades of recording, walking, and falling in love with Scotland’s wild places.
We travel through the Borderlands, Highlands, and Islands, weaving through memories of football, first visits, and lifelong rituals—like kissing the welcome sign at Gretna Green. Martyn recounts tales of Rannoch Moor, Glen Tilt, and the Isle of Skye, and speaks about recording with honour and grief at Culloden, where the winds still whisper the stories of the fallen.
This episode is also a meditation on loss—of species, of silence, of time—and a call to love the world deeply enough to preserve it. Whether you’re a lifelong nature lover or a curious traveler, this sonic pilgrimage to Scotland is a love letter to wildness, history, and home.
