Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 337

Hello there, listeners. It’s me. Trevor.
You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve tracks. Two sides. A little plastic ghost that flips itself at the halfway mark, like a polite pancake.
If you make music, or you run a label, or you simply own a shed full of strange noises and would like them filed somewhere warm, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
The shows stay free for the first week. After that they slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers. Subscribers also receive the expanding series of three-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies, which is less a mixtape and more a long walk through a curtain that may be sentient.
Now. Each of these episodes is a two-part outing, just like the classic cassette. Unlike mixtapes or playlists, these two sides are curated as proper DJ sets, six tracks segued into one continuous mix, stitched together so carefully you can barely see the thread.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
An adventure for the one who must be obeyed, then a sky watched in company.
Side A keeps Haggard’s flame warm in the sequence, reaches the pole with the radio still crackling from the ice, folds the shroud so the outline remains kind, pours a small aperitif before the meal, finds the empire still in the foundations under the roads, and leaves temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes on the table for you to look. Side B keeps the past still sitting in the chair, grazes elk on a coastal flat with the window open, shares a long look from the mezze table, projects a holographic father already solid and familiar, lets the hearts decide on forever with the pulse steady, and watches the weight of the night sky together while the desert holds both of you.
Overall mood: Mythic, and quietly shared — full of open windows, warm maps, and skies that prefer company. Perfect for dusk listening, coastal flats, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: an adventure for the one who must be obeyed, an admiral at the pole, a shroud folded in an elegy, an aperitif for the young, an empire still in the foundations, a temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes.

Title of the hour. The one that prefers to stay on the table. You may look.

Side B
Mood mist: a past still in the room, elk on a coastal flat, an eye from the mezze table, a holographic father, hearts that prefer the long duration, a sky watched in company.
00:29:10 ian hawgood – no less present for being in the past
https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/track/no-less-present-for-being-in-the-past

The weight of the night sky, shared. The desert holding both of you.

I’ll meet you on the other side of the next spool.
Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 318

Hello there, listeners. It’s me. Trevor.
You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve tracks. Two sides. A little plastic ghost that flips itself at the halfway mark, like a polite pancake.
If you make music, or you run a label, or you simply own a shed full of strange noises and would like them filed somewhere warm, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise. I read them with both eyes and, on special occasions, a third one.
The shows stay free for the first week, wandering about with their shoelaces undone. After that they slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes, which in my experience is usually Tuesdays, or during eclipses, or when the kettle boils. Subscribers also receive the expanding series of three-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies, which is less a mixtape and more a long walk through a curtain that may be sentient.
Now. Each of these episodes is a two-set outing, just like the classic cassette. Unlike mixtapes or playlists, these two sides are curated as proper DJ sets, six tracks segued into one continuous mix, stitched together so carefully you can barely see the thread. Unless you look. Don’t look.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
Steps that refuse to announce themselves, then a forest that arrived a year early.
Side A counts silent steps so quietly the floorboards agree not to tell, loses a microlith before you notice, sketches four corners with no furniture, hides a small modernist house in the woodland, skims the surface and refuses the basement, and runs a film that never quite developed. Side B ties up under its own wind at a jetty grown on purpose, sees space invaders double and misses them, builds a reef from harmonics no one may stand on, leaves a green needle that will not say which word it is, threads blood through a low-lit labyrinth, and dates a midnight forest 2025 inside timestreams dated 2026.
Overall mood: Quiet, slightly uncanny, and carefully unfinished — full of small stones, half-cleared paths, and trees that have not been told which year they are in. Perfect for dusk listening, houses hiding in woods, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Mood mist: steps that refuse to announce themselves, stones smaller than a minute, squares that have given up being rooms, a house hiding in trees, land seen only from above, a film that never quite developed.
00:00:00 hershel – 16
https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/track/16
From the album: silent steps for a better way. Label: whitelabrecs
Silent steps for a better way, counted so quietly the floorboards agree not to tell.
00:09:43 zakè, Ossa, ASC – Microlith 5
https://zakedrone.bandcamp.com/track/microlith-5-3
From the album: Microliths and Momentary Drifts.
A stone you could lose in a pocket, drifting for less time than it takes to notice you dropped it.
00:10:36 Nick May – Minimal Squares
https://nickmaymusic.bandcamp.com/track/minimal-squares
From the album: Sketches: Ambient Works.
Sketches that declined to become paintings. Four corners, no furniture, the light doing all the talking.
00:14:08 Enofa – Slate
https://enofa.bandcamp.com/track/slate
From the album: Small Modernist House in Woodland Setting. Label: Subexotic Records
A small modernist house in a woodland setting, roof the colour of an unsent letter, Subexotic leaving the path half-cleared.
00:19:10 Olio Flux – Land, The Surface
https://olioflux.bandcamp.com/track/land-the-surface
From the album: Selected Frequencies.
Selected frequencies skimming the crust and refusing the basement. Everything interesting is happening one millimetre down.
00:23:12 Akira Film Script – Jeno
https://etherealprojector.bandcamp.com/track/jeno
From the album: Holo. Label: Ethereal Projector
A projection that needed a screen. Ethereal Projector running the reel anyway.

Mood mist: a ship coming back under its own wind, a mouse seeing double in orbit, a reef built from harmonics, a needle that may also be a brain, a labyrinth that kept the lights low, a forest that arrived a year early.
00:25:26 Anubis Rude – Homecoming
https://ingrown.bandcamp.com/track/homecoming
From the album: Windjammer. Label: Ingrown Records
Tying up at a jetty Ingrown grew on purpose. The dog on the porch may be a god.
00:29:51 Letters From Mouse – Stereo Vision
https://tripfm.bandcamp.com/track/letters-from-mouse-stereo-vision
From the album: Triplicate Tapes Vol. 2: Space Invaders. Label: TRIP FM, Triplicate Records
Space invaders seen with both eyes, which is how you miss them. Triplicate printing the postcard three times.
00:33:20 Coda Nautica – Coral
https://neotantra.bandcamp.com/track/coral
From the album: Intricate Harmonics 2. Label: Neotantra
Intricate harmonics building a reef no one is allowed to stand on. Neotantra leaving the snorkel by the door.
00:38:31 Time Rival – Green Needle
https://timerival.bandcamp.com/track/green-needle
From the album: stay safe out there.
Stay safe out there — advice from a record that has already left the house. Laurel or yanny. The tape will not say.
00:41:44 Boards of Canada – Blood In The Labyrinth
https://boardsofcanada.bandcamp.com/track/blood-in-the-labyrinth
From the album: Inferno. Label: Warp Records
Inferno filed under Warp, the thread you were told not to look at.
00:46:19 Mark Ellery Griffiths – Midnight Forest (2025)
https://markgriffiths.bandcamp.com/track/midnight-forest-2025
From the album: Timestreams (2026).
Midnight forest, dated 2025, living inside timestreams dated 2026. The trees have not been informed which year they are in. They seem fine.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 305

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A cliffside, slightly occult ambient journey through spirit bridges, distant evenings, and questions that keep answering themselves.
Side A opens among Provo cliffdwellers and castle waters, then dreams through 808 notebook sequences, sits with Scottish-Swedish darkness, tunes the senses to E.S.P., and holds surface tension across Passed Oceans. Side B begins a mysterious Mechanicus chapter, places the world at your feet for Phantom’s centenary, spices the reel with French library flute and Leipzig afrobeat, flashes a fourteen-second miniature, and ends decaying underwater — however oceanic of you.
Overall mood: Contemplative, faintly eerie, and quietly playful — full of exclusive darkness, compilation water, and short surprises after the flip. Perfect for late listening, sitting with the unexplained, or letting the tape keep asking while the ocean answers.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
The tape unspools its visions.

00:02:21 spaceseer – Cliffdwellers
I start with an apology to the artist EBlo who in the last episode I mixed up with an artist of the same name. EBlo is in fact based in Malmö, Sweden and not the US. Also a shout out to the wonderful aeon who not only is one of my only subscribers but also left a comment on a show a while back and asked me to do an episode of his amazing CAMP radio monthly series Fragments. Opening this episode with a piece from the new compilation album Gemstones VII out on Cyclical Dreams that Record label focused on Berlin School, Ambient, Soundscape, Space Music, Drone, and electronic music. Provo, Utah based spaceseerer who’s described themselves as doom-synth and dark ambient.
00:07:20 Klaus Wolfe – Castle Waters – Spirit Bridge
This is followed by another track from the same Cyclical Dreams compilation. Klaus Wolfe is the only artist that has released work on The Dream Journal Institute label that seems to actually exist anywhere else
00:12:20 Akira Film Script – Dream
from the album Holo which is released on Ethereal Projector which is a sub label of Ambient Cat which in turn is a sub label of Chitra Records or something like that.
Ryan Watts. 808, Bass Station II and 303 from 2018, a daughter’s number sequences in the notebook. Hiroshi Watanabe masters. Meaghan Watts covers.
00:17:11 Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken & Henrik Meierkord – The Evening Seems So Distant
The first exclusive track today comes from this Scottish Swedish collaboration. From the album Darkness Is Just Darkness which will be released on September 22 on the Audiobulb label.
Synths, drones and cello. Spoken passages sit inside the music. Darkness as a state to sit with.
00:22:39 The British Stereo Collective – E.S.P.
The penultimate track of side A and an aboloute legend of the synth world. From the self released album TeleKinesis The trilogy that began with ExoGenesis and continued with ProtoSynthesis now concludes with TeleKinesis: a journey through the mind and the senses; through consciousness and altered states.
00:24:11 Trees Can Talk – Surface Tension
The final track of side A and the longest piece on the episode at 7:51. From that must have new Passed Recording compilation Passed Oceans. Classical instruments, punk years, electronica as therapy. Half of sales to Doctors Without Borders.
After that the cassette reaches its midpoint and flips.

00:31:25 Adeptus Mechanicus – A new mysterious Beginning
We open with annother long track of the episode at 7:42 from two compilation albums recently released. First the whopping 53 track name your price album Summoning 4 out on Hull, UK based Netlabel for sounds of horror, the occult and the unexplained “Dittany of Crete” and also on channel supporting Argentinian label Cyclical Dreams stunning Gemstones VII.
Adeptus Mechanicus is Dutch noise, dark space ambient and sound art.
00:39:06 Andrew Wasylyk & Tommy Perman – I Placed The World At Your Feet #2
The second exclusive track of the episode and a shorter one at 1:42. From the album House with a Curse which releases October 16 on one of our favorite labels Clay Pipe Music. I love when these two get together. Shout out to Tommy for sending me this.

00:40:25 Bolbec – À L’instar Du Flair
And now for something very different with some French floating flute library just to spice it up a bit. From yet another wonderful compilation album on the fantastic Batov Records label titled Around The Sun.
Batov Records celebrates ten years with a landmark compilation
Imaginary soundtrack beside Piccioni and Legrand. DJ Kobayashi selects. November 6.
00:42:44 Sandman Project – Questions Answers

Now, probably the shortest track I’ve ever had on the show clocking in at just 14 seconds. From the self released album A Certain Distance.
Miniature flashes. Photographs in the download.
00:48:35 Stewart Keller – How Oceanic Of You
This one confused me. I have it in my collection as being titled How Oceanic Of You but on the EP it’s called Ambient Calm. Anyway it’s from SHRIMP GAME: OVERKRILL OST (Contributions). Stewarts individual contributions to the SHRIMP GAME: OVERKRILL OST.
Decaying underwater world. CorrodedParadox artwork.
The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.
Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, release date 26 September.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 294

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A ritual, slightly archival ambient journey through cave light, crystal devotion, and lost scrolls.
Side A opens in misfit forest worlds and frog-voiced infinity, then rises from empty Berlin-school air into Sagan-bright crystal strings, Adonia keyboards, and Pan Am polaroid ritual. Side B propagates Greek debut tones, shuffles a side-hustle co-op, unrolls Mossilon’s unfinished archive, lets sandalwood pulse over a vanished ocean, crowns a snow queen, and asks tomorrow to wait.
Overall mood: Contemplative, faintly mythic, and warmly analogue — full of restored tape, short illuminated paths, and memory that arrives as photographs. Perfect for late listening, quiet ritual, or letting the next day stay outside the room.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
The tape unspools its visions.

00:00:00 Monroeville Music Center – Caverynth
Monroeville Music Center – Caverynth. Forest worlds, wintertide ritual and cloud ruins glow in short illuminated paths. Heaven for misfits hangs above a castle basement.
00:03:58 Light Vortex – Without Glimmer Of Infinity
Light Vortex – Without Glimmer Of Infinity. Tempo and tonality shift through a living cycle. At the close, frogs speak from a Florida pond.
00:10:26 Michael Brückner – From Zero – Part 1
Michael Brückner – From Zero – Part 1. Berlin School sequences rise from a 2015 studio floor. Synthesizers and keyboards start with empty air.
00:24:38 Spirituals – Crystal Strings
Spirituals – Crystal Strings. Pedal steel, acoustic guitar, vibraphone and voice memos stack as solitary devotionals. Sagan’s metaphor leaves the page and enters the headphones.
00:28:31 Ose – Orgasmachine
Ose – Orgasmachine. Hervé Picart’s Adonia sits between Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk. Rhetoric, journalism and emerging keyboards share one spatial room.
00:31:42 Akira Film Script – Pan Am Port Regalia
Akira Film Script – Pan Am Port Regalia. Polaroids and bidirectional associations open the eRecords white-label ritual.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:36:03 Parallel Worlds – Propagation
Parallel Worlds – Propagation. A Greek debut on SLIT ART sends tones across FORM@’s widening scope.
00:41:25 Legacy Systems – Side Hustle Shuffle
Legacy Systems – Side Hustle Shuffle. The Synthesis Co-Op gathers Eurorack, pedals and occasional guitar. Profits travel toward CALM.
00:45:06 Everyday Dust – The Lost Scrolls Of Mossilon
Everyday Dust – The Lost Scrolls Of Mossilon. Restored quarter-inch, cassette, DAT and MiniDisc carry 2006 to 2022. Grebo Gray’s hand-drawn archive never finishes.
00:50:11 yolabmi – Sandalwood Pulse
yolabmi – Sandalwood Pulse. A vanished ocean whispers before music learns how to dream. Handprints rest on dust.
00:55:00 SERMAK MUSIC – Snow Queen
SERMAK MUSIC – Snow Queen. CZiGO’s piano and production span lockdown years to now. Eight tracks gather the Sermak catalogue.
00:58:54 ndrw cnry – Let tomorrow wait

The visions complete their circle.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 271
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-271/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 271. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A reflective, slightly mysterious ambient journey through memory, floating worlds, and quiet observation.
Side A drifts from cello warmth and barking flowers into micro-drones, memory death, and floating liminality. Side B moves through ghosts, watchful figures, dusty relics, field-recorded nostalgia, watery reflections, and ends in Borges-inspired shadow.
Overall mood: Contemplative, nostalgic, and gently enigmatic — full of soft transitions and quiet emotional depth. Perfect for late-night listening, deep focus, or peaceful solitude.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,095 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear Stockholm cellist Henrik Meierkord teaming up with Indian artist Suseti for the title track “Hilate” from their latest name-your-price release.
Then Rotterdam’s Ard Janssen, better known as Ard Bit, guides us through surrender and introspection with “Barking Flowers” from the album Juxtaposed. That’s out on Dronarivm’s side hustle DƎЯRDE.
Next, the trio of Zach Frizzell, Kaiton Slusher and James Clements — zakè, Ossa and ASC — open their remarkable album Microliths and Momentary Drifts with the delicate “Microlith 1”.
After that, a piece from Boards of Canada’s Inferno: the quietly devastating “Memory Death”, out on Warp Records of course.
Then a collaboration between Tomotsugu Nakamura and David Cordero: the floating “Ukiyo” (floating world) from the album Aware 哀れ which in Japanese translates as pity or sorrow. Thats out on the wonderful Home Normal label.
Closing Side A is Venezuelan artist Angelo Sanellix together with Mexican producer Justin Ortiz (as SpoonBeats), offering liminal ambience in “long time ago” from the album Distant Particles, released on the prolific Stockholm label Valley View Records.
But first, the opening track of the cassette: Henrik Meierkord & Suseti with “Hilate”.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear one of the strongest supporters of this channel — Gareth Evans, known here as HDRF — with an exclusive track from the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures (out 26 September). His piece is the wonderfully titled “Mr Baines (Is Watching You)”.
Then Scottish modular artist and Dustopian Frequencies curator Everyday Dust offers “Maria” from his latest album The Relic Room.
Next, Chesapeake, Virginia’s Ryan Watts (Akira Film Script), a long-time friend of the library and contributor to The Mystery of the Night. Here he brings the heavily field-recorded “N6-79” from Over Exposure on Driftworks. Shout-out to Andrew Heath for keeping that label so consistently excellent.
Near the end we drift through elemental sensations with Intact Veils (Kraków) and “Image of Water” from the album Saint Imago, released on The Artificial Pine.
And finally, Paul Haslinger and Christian Wittman close the tape with “Elogio de La Sombra” (In Praise of Shadow) from their album Borges — an immersive soundscape into the world of Jorge Luis Borges — on their own label NOION Music.
But first, Raleigh, North Carolina’s Derrick Stembridge, better known as Drifting In Silence and here as Unknowndivide, opens Side B with the drifting drones and IDM glitches of “Ghost” from the album Existence on Labile Records.
Enjoy…
Side A

Warm, cello-led ambient with soft Indian-tinged textures and gentle emotional depth. Intimate and luminous.

Surreal, introspective ambient with organic oddity and a sense of quiet surrender. Curious and atmospheric.
00:09:55 zakè, Ossa, ASC – Microlith 1

00:10:52 Boards of Canada – Memory Death

00:13:17 Tomotsugu Nakamura & David Cordero – Ukiyo
Floating, transient ambient (ukiyo = floating world) with soft Japanese-Spanish elegance and gentle suspension.
00:16:22 SanelliX & SpoonBeats – long time ago
Liminal, memory-soaked ambient with distant warmth and soft, half-remembered atmosphere. Melancholic and spacious.

Drifting drones with subtle IDM glitches and spectral presence. Ethereal and quietly restless.
00:26:05 HDRF – Mr Baines (Is Watching You)

Field-recording rich ambient captured with cassette warmth and domestic nostalgia. Personal and comforting.

Elemental, reflective ambient with fluid, mirrored textures and soft emotional clarity. Serene and contemplative.
00:48:29 Paul Haslinger, Christian Wittman – Elogio de La Sombra
Literary, shadow-praising ambient inspired by Borges — deep, enigmatic, and richly atmospheric. Profound closer.
Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, due 26 September.

Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A varied, atmospheric ambient journey blending mystical folklore, northern chill, and intimate warmth.
Side A moves from relaxing breaks and cliff-hanging tension into union commentary and mosaic beauty. Side B drifts through coastal calm, wizardly myths, hyperborean ice, sinister clouds, sunny winds, and communal glass.
Overall mood: Contemplative, mystical, and gently dynamic with a mix of dark mystery and hopeful warmth. Perfect for deep listening, nature connection, or late-night immersion.
As of now I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. as I’ve put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 263 episodes as well as the 820 plus other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for 3 quid anymore. It used to be a coffee.
As a subscriber you also get access to my new series Veil Frequencies based on a fictional world I’ve created called The Resonant Veil Enclave. Each episode is around three hours and recorded from one of the floors from the 24 buildings in the veil. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by the collaboration of Analogue Path & channel friend Akira Film Script with the track “Lamkin” from volume two of the fantastic compilation series “The Silent Harvest” which you should really add to your collection if you haven’t already. They’re out on the Manchester based label FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS.
