Best Narrative I’ve heard in a long time

He delivered the story as described and yet his voice and tone relaxed the mind enough to keep interested yet soothed and lulled. The background noise was also well placed. Definitely worth the listen. Hope to hear more in the future!

Peaceful and relaxing

Each episode has Richard telling a short story in that beautiful, calm, soothing voice of his that helps the mind relax as the nature sounds of rain or the crackling of a fire gently lull you to sleep.

With a varying work schedule full of traveling, I often find it hard to unwind and relax if I'm returning home late. I've tried different nature sounds and white noise to help me sleep, but not much works. I have to admit, this Sleep Sound with Richard works. I can set the timer for one episode, turn the volume down, turn out the lights, and I'm asleep before the episode is complete.

Definitely worth the listen.

It’s relaxing and pleasing to the Senses

I Liked it, it didn’t have heavy Piano pieces which are Loud to me and Overpowering while meditating, relaxing or trying to go to Sleep.
This is a mix of Light Melodic tones with Natural Sounds, such as the Ocean.
I prefer Singing Bowls but those are mostly used in Tibet, and Eastern Europe onwards.

RA is lovely as usual, but...

The scripts all sound like "Richard Armitage reads Wattpad in second person". If his voice alone is enough to put you to sleep, then you're golden, I guess.
