Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Expansive Waves, episode nineteen, and I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator. Tonight’s programme is not for the hurried. Eight pieces, each longer than twelve minutes, each more patient than the last. If you’re expecting choruses, drops, or anything resembling urgency, you may want to try another channel. We begin, as always, not with a bang but with a murmur. The track you’re hearing underneath me is from my own unreleased album, TVCL 08. It’ll be out when it’s ready—sixteen tracks, no sooner. You can find it on Bandcamp under Trevlad, if you’re the curious sort.
So, settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the dog sleep. Let the world spin without you for a while.
A forged pact. Each mix is a tonal séance — spiraling through fog machines and strobe hallucinations. It’s club music with a strange gravitational pull: modal techno, warped house, ambient interludes that shimmer like oil slicks on concrete. Expect rhythmic mutations, harmonic hypnosis, and grooves that feel like they’ve been smuggled in from another dimension. The vibe mutates — from dubby crawl to polyrhythmic panic, from velvet pads to metallic clang. For the subscription crew, this is your secret passage into the modal underground. No genre loyalty. Just tonal fidelity.
