Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 287
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-287/

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 dynamic, slightly nocturnal ambient and experimental journey through elephant rhythms, fractured breakbeats, quiet shade, and slowly fading stars.
Side A moves from South Indian folk-electronic dance and spare war circuits into darkstep fractures, live trio gravity, breath stuck in buffer, and compact chip energy. Side B opens across inland oceans and modular comfort, then rises through live fire, soul-deep space, red-kite aerials, and ends as the stars go out one by one.
Overall mood: Textured, restless, and quietly expansive — blending rhythmic intensity with reflective stillness and cosmic closure. Perfect for late-night listening, focused immersion, or following the slow turning of the tape.
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 Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance
An elephant dance unfolds through South Indian folk colours and electronic drums. Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance. Dark synths, drones and industrial textures resynthesize into deconstructed club motion. Voices and remixes from across the globe rise as fire brought to the rhythm.
00:10:51 Alex Ringess – War
Minimal circuits pulse under the title of war. Alex Ringess – War. Three or four instruments hold the space. Project files from Analog Abstractions carry the same mix forward in spare luminous lines.
00:17:50 Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix)
Darkstep breakbeats fracture and reform. Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix). Lush pads from oldschool rave meet atmospheric drum and bass and experimental breaks, each layer covering another band of the spectrum.
00:23:46 Slate Trio – BS7
Guitar, drums and bass lock into BS7. Slate Trio – Neil Smith, Matthew Jones, Alex Heane. Three voices move together in live trio gravity.
00:33:15 Substak – Breath stuck in buffer
Sunlight retreats while long shadows dance at the base of a tree. Substak – Breath stuck in buffer. Memories linger among colours that wait for morning. Quiet things sleep in the cradle of shade.
00:36:46 Danny Playamaqui – Chip
Chip fragments scatter across broken beats and saboteur sweetness. Danny Playamaqui – Chip. Noise, basses, synths and hall atmospheres pack into compact X4 motion, Plaza del Sol energy glowing in the mix.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:43:46 Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull
A seagull rides above a hidden inland ocean. Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull. Familiar roads, weathered shorelines and forgotten infrastructure reveal unexpected connections. Eighteen compositions invite wandering among landmarks that have always waited beyond recognition.
00:47:09 Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort
Comfort arrives through modular skin and tape loops. Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort. Field recordings and generative chaos balance harmony with rhythm. Silence is sculpted into shared sonic connections.
00:54:57 Anam Gu Anam – Feu
Fire opens in live improvised heat. Anam Gu Anam – Feu. Electronica, ambient and experimental palettes capture a unique moment. Each take remains a personal explorative soundscape.
01:01:51 John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep
Soul deep space drifts through shifting forms. John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep. Soft pulses and distant echoes hover like quiet constellations, sculpting weightless horizons.
01:08:26 CRSY – red kite aerial
A red kite hangs in aerial current. CRSY – red kite aerial. Wings cut slow circles through open sky.
01:10:52 Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out
Stars go out one by one as the tides of time come in. Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out. A bridge of light leaps from earth to the unknown shore. Arthur Machen’s gulf yawns, then spans.
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.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.

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. Episode 279. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.

Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
I’m trying something new by not introducing the artists, but instead incorporating their work into an incantation of sorts.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,108 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.
Side A
Volcanic snow dogs race across a mountain ridge under shifting digital skies. Innis Chonnel & Loris S. Sarid – Volcan Snow Dogs. Ship-to-shore light pours over butterfly towers and shaman shoes. Moshi moves through deep-breathing valleys where digital synth motifs drift in soft waves. Wood-workshop percussion rises with new-age swells and bit-crushed vocal haunts, carrying the entire 12th Isle landscape forward in continuous playful motion.
Dawn breaks across layered South Indian folk tones and electronic drums. Sunken Cages – Darantee (with Kuza). Dark synths and industrial textures open into wide deconstructed fields. Kuza’s voice rises as a ghostly aria through the glowing circuitry, the whole surface expanding in resynthesized global club light.
Distant piano figures stretch across a cinematic horizon of dense electronics and layered guitar. Simon Heartfield – Ultimate Creature. Fractured voices drift through insistent percussion and powerful rhythms. The landscape unfolds in patient continuous transformation, every layer of time gathering into one vast evolving field.
Broken synths and scratched CDs release soft electrical pulses across a tired piano from Cornwall. Dave Clarkson – The Age of Static. Warped tapes and power surges open into unexpected luminous forms. The entire space fills with the quiet magic of imperfect signals moving in steady chance patterns.
Growth expands outward from within a single luminous centre. f5point6 – Endogenesis. Jazz roots, Detroit techno currents and ambient electronica rise together in visual colour. Plugins generate intricate patterns that drift like sand across an endless desert or calm water along a deep lake shore, the whole sequence suspended in continuous immersive motion.
Small fires glow in warm intimate circles across a Polish winter landscape. Jeff Gburek + Eryk Nowacki – Enter the Spiral. Organic tones unfold in unhurried flow. The session opens as a continuous spiral of soft ambiance, each sound tending the fire in quiet shared light.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.
Side B
Deep water at the bottom of Lake Mead holds a long continuous recording. Nosferatupac – Capitalism Only Works If It Completely Strips You Of Any Sense Of Dignity Or Self Worth. The lake floor opens into dense submerged textures that keep expanding in slow underwater currents.
Minimal circuits pulse across a wide open field of four instruments. Alex Ringess – State Of Emergency. Corrupted signals, escape trajectories and crystal-clear frequencies rise in continuous sequence. Heat waves and collective cognitive fields stretch outward in steady luminous patterns.
A soft voice holds the line in endless floating space. luxury elite – please stay on the line. The tone remains open and continuous, the entire channel glowing in quiet sustained presence.
Waves move through a cosmic ocean of harmonium, space sounds, guitar, gong, singing bowls, ocean drum, chimes, bass, cello, drums and percussion. Monks Pond – Waves in the Cosmic Ocean. Every instrument expands into the same vast watery light, the whole surface rolling forward in continuous cosmic motion.
Surface tension holds quirky emotive harmonies across twenty years of detailed glitch. Planet Boelex – Surface tension. Small luminous details rise and settle in steady mildly glitched waves, the entire field recommended for headphones in continuous close listening.
Aerospace corridors open across late-seventies industrial horizons of Warrington, Widnes and Runcorn. Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan – Bonus: Aerospace. Prophet synths and gallons of reverb carry the landscape in continuous nostalgic electronica. Workers and industry glow in soft infinite decay, the whole new-town field expanding in quiet forward light.
The visions complete their circle.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 212
Hypnotic and dreamlike, often sitting in liminal spaces.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 212 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Tower of Butterflies” by Innis Chonnel & Loris S. Sarid from the album “Looking For Mount Sylvan” which dropped on the 10th of March via The 12th Isle label. Also a massive thank you to Driftworks, Lunar Module which is the CD imprint of Castles in Space, Audiobulb, Amulet of Tears, Trem 77, and Third Kind Records for sponsoring the episode with material.
This mix carries a moody, introspective, and slightly surreal nocturnal atmosphere. It moves through themes of isolation, transformation, thresholds, and fragile beauty. There’s a strong contrast between cold urban desolation and organic, fluttering delicacy — from concrete fields and body worms to towers of butterflies and sunlit solitude. The overall feeling is hypnotic and dreamlike, often sitting in liminal spaces (half-awake, melting forms, interrupted signals), with a subtle undercurrent of unease balanced by moments of quiet wonder and graceful movement.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

00:10:33 Saïph – Psyché du figurant (128)
Abstract, hypnotic ambient/electronic exploration. Minimal rhythms and fragmented textures probe the psyche of an anonymous background figure—detached and surreal.
00:13:10 Ida Urd & Ingri Høyland– Melting Cubes
Fluid, dissolving ambient with geometric forms gradually breaking down. Soft, melting tones and crystalline details create a beautiful, impermanent sonic sculpture.
00:15:24 Future Children – New mythology part 3
Speculative, glowing ambient weaving contemporary myths. Warm, hopeful layers and subtle narrative movement suggest emerging stories for a new generation.
00:22:18 The Black Dog – Sleep Deprivation 39: Threshold Ov Wakefulness
Disorienting, liminal ambient from the legendary duo. Pulsing, sleep-deprived textures sit on the fragile edge between dreams and reality—tense and immersive.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 209
Minimal and focused, it unfolds with quiet intensity and subtle structural beauty.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 209 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Lectures on Radio Telegraphy” by Andrew Heath from the upcoming album “Airships & Aeronauts” which drops on the 5th of June via the Driftworks label. Also a massive thank you to See Blue Audio, FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS, whitelabrecs, Mystery Circles, Imaginary North and Mahorka for sponsoring the episode with material.
This is a gentle, introspective journey through soft melancholy and quiet wonder. It feels like a slow, overcast spring day — hazy light, light rain on umbrellas, fading golden-hour glow, and the comforting solitude of hidden places. There’s a pervasive sense of transition and impermanence (spring haze, last light, aftermath, phantom presence), balanced by moments of serene beauty and meditative calm. The atmosphere is warm yet wistful, organic and slightly ghostly, inviting deep reflection without ever becoming dark or heavy.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.

Gentle, fading ambient with cinematic warmth. Delicate layers evoke the final golden rays of daylight—poignant, peaceful, and beautifully transient.

00:23:58 Chorchill – A Phantom Thing

Welcome to episode 207 of the Virtual Cassette Library – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that sets the tone for the set. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark. If and when I get a couple more subscribers then I’ll go back to doing 90 minute versions, complete with commentary.
This episode is based on the tracks “At One With The Woods” by CommsBreakdown and “A Moonlit Crop Circle Timelapse” from the upcoming compilation album “The Mystery of the Night” curated by yours truly.

Labels Mystery Circles, Machine Records, Castles In Space, and See Blue Audio for sponsoring the channel with material.
A dreamy, atmospheric journey through cosmic ambient, gentle electronica, and cinematic textures with a strong sense of wonder and introspection.
Side A moves from vast space-castle dreams and delicate minimalism into warm dub bliss, rain-streaked melancholy, and nostalgic instrumental storytelling. Side B expands into brainwave cosmic pulses, forest immersion, mysterious moonlit visions, and intricate winding electronics.
Overall mood: Ethereal, contemplative, and subtly adventurous. It feels like drifting between inner worlds, rainy windows, starry skies, and hidden forest clearings — perfect for late-night listening, focused work, or quiet escapism. Warm, immersive, and pleasantly hypnotic throughout.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.

Alone on the Dance Floor 08
For those that dance to a different tune.

A place to let loose. A short break from the ambience that usually dominated the channel.
Back with another outing of Alone on the Dance Floor.
This series comes out whenever I can make the time to create them. Like all my shows.
I am not affiliated with any station and do not get paid for this work.
I rely entirely on labels and artists sending me material, an unquenchable thirst for sharing great sounds, a handful of Mixcloud subscribers and a few sales from Bandcamp.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 187
23 March 2026
(Loch Ness pub in Stockholm where the beer tastes like regret and possibility in equal measure)

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
…hey.
welcome back, or maybe welcome for the first time, to the slowest-growing show on the internet. or off it. whatever.
this is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-eight-seven.
we’re still calling it a virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous, but let’s be honest—it’s just me in a room full of blinking lights and dying batteries, trying to convince the void that independent music still matters.
twenty artists. no schedule. drops when the mood hits, which is usually when normal people are asleep.
the three-word subtitles? they’re What3Words locations that mean something to me. personal little coordinates. this one’s grinning.cheek.traffic. Stockholm pub. good beer, better stories you forget by morning.
If you want in—send weird files, codes, confessions, whatever—to trevlad@gmail.com.
labels getting the slow nod tonight: Moolakii Club Audio Interface, Castles In Space, Adventurous Music, Bricolage, Audiobulb, Ingrown Records, i u we records, Noray Records… the usual suspects haunting the margins.
styles? liminal ambient, hauntronica, post-disco, whatever falls between the cracks. places on the map: Québec, Prague, Pereira. the world’s getting smaller, but the weird corners are still there.
Send stories for Chord Confessions. that song that ruined or saved you. record it yourself or I’ll read it in my sleep-voice and play the track. win-win-win.
also doing Trev Tales now—stories woven into the sets. like this is one long dream you’re not sure you want to wake up from.
One new follower since last time. Paso stranger. cheers, mate. you’re in the club now. the one with no meetings and no rules.…
A soft hiss opens the curtain. dust motes spin in pale light. first pulse arrives like a hangover you didn’t earn.
First out f5point6 – The Second Day (Remastered).
https://f5point6.bandcamp.com/track/the-second-day-remastered
Grey dawn leaking through blinds that gave up years ago. yesterday’s coffee is a cold accusation in the mug. synths breathe slow, like fog rolling over abandoned motorways.
headphones on. let time dissolve. frequencies claim you. no refunds.…
That was ‘The Second Day (Remastered)’ – by f5point6 from the album ‘In Retrospect’ out on the See Blue Audio label.
The next artist is Ver – Combine.
https://secuenciastemporales.bandcamp.com/track/ver-combine-2
Metallic clanks fold into wet footsteps, voices smear across rusted combine blades turning in slow motion under an endless flat sky.
Yes ‘Combine’ by Ver from that ‘Commemorative Compilation’ I’ve been playing lately out on the Secuencias Temporales label.
And now Dåggěr (Szórëgg) – Telekinetic Coercion.
https://secuenciastemporales.bandcamp.com/track/d-gg-r-sz-r-gg-telekinetic-coercion
Invisible fingers press the temples, thoughts lift like iron filings toward a humming magnet, chair legs scrape backward without feet.
Crunchy, haunted vibes there with ‘Telekinetic Coercion’ by Dåggěr (Szórëgg) also from the ‘Commemorative Compilation’ release.
Dub time now, Rural District Lo-Fi Recording Project – Planning A Bootleg LP?
https://ruraldistrictlofirecordingproject.bandcamp.com/track/planning-a-bootleg-lp
Cassette deck whirs in a damp shed, pencil scratches setlists on yellowing paper, distant lawnmower drone leaks through the window like memory bleed.
Gotta love that ‘Planning A Bootleg LP?’ by Rural District Lo-Fi Recording Project from the self released album ‘Jolly Johnny and his Oompahing Oomlahs’.
Time to pull some shapes on the dance floor with Baxter Dury – Schadenfreude Ft. JGrrey
https://baxterdury.bandcamp.com/track/schadenfreude-ft-jgrrey
Cigarette cherry glows in the dark cab, someone else’s misfortune tastes sharp and sweet on the tongue, laughter curls like smoke rings.
That was ‘Schadenfreude Ft. JGrrey’ by Baxter Dury from the album ‘Allbarone’ out on Heavenly Recordings
We retire to the lounge with 36 – Echo Diffusion.
https://pitp.bandcamp.com/track/echo-diffusion
Synth notes dissolve into mist, each chord sends ripples across black water, distant towers repeat the lament softer, softer, gone.
You’ve been listening to ‘Echo Diffusion’ by 36 from the album ‘Reality Engine’ out on the Past Inside the Present label.
Now the wonderful Ann Annie – home. This is a short 2 minute outing.
https://annannie.bandcamp.com/track/home-3
Bare feet on sun-warmed floorboards, lace curtains breathe in and out, a kettle clicks off somewhere deeper in the house that still smells of yesterday’s bread.
Blissful acoustic guitar there in ‘home’ by Ann Annie from the album ‘El Prado’ available through the ’Nettwerk’ label.
Which brings us nicely to Empty House – Sea Birds
https://mcpm.bandcamp.com/track/sea-birds
Gulls wheel above peeling paint, empty rooms fill with salt wind, curtains flap like trapped wings against salt-crusted glass.
Hope you’re still with us on the planet after ’Sea Birds’ by Empty House from the album ‘MCPM018 compilation album’ out on the amazing Moolakii Club Audio Interface label.
Time to head back to the club now with Pablo Diarra – Humour noir.
https://songe-anima-records.bandcamp.com/track/humour-noir
Cigarette burns slow in ashtray, punchline lands like wet gravel, laughter echoes in an empty corridor lit only by neon bleeding through blinds.
Yes ‘Humour noir’ there by Pablo Diarra aka Saïph from the album ‘Griffe Sonam’ out on Songe Anima Records
Next up an artist I feature quite regularly James Adrian Brown – ‘Poster Child’ from the album ‘Forever Neon Lights’ out on channel champion label Castles In Space
https://jamesadrianbrown.bandcamp.com/track/poster-child
Faded gig poster curls at the edges, spotlight glare trapped in yellowing tape, young face staring back with too much certainty.
Catch you on the flip side.
B Side
Needle drops into silence, groove dust crackles, the hidden track breathes like someone left the tape running after everyone went home.
This is the legendary Deerhoof – Apple Bomb.
https://deerhoof.bandcamp.com/track/apple-bomb
Teeth sink into skin, juice sprays, frantic drums explode outward, tart sweetness turns chaotic sugar-rush panic.
Classic Deerhoof there with ‘Apple Bomb’ from the album ‘Apple O’’ available through Joyful Noise Recordings
Next we get some haunted chills via Catharæ, Trem 77 – Dreams of the Mediterranéant (Fade at Brighton Beach Mix)
https://adventurousmusic.bandcamp.com/track/dreams-of-the-mediterran-ant-fade-at-brighton-beach-mix
Waves lap shingle under sodium lamps, bougainvillea scent mixes with diesel and chips, sun-bleached dream fades into Brighton March grey.
Cheers to Trem 77 for sending me ‘Dreams of the Mediterranéant (Fade at Brighton Beach Mix)’ from the album ‘Dreams of the Méditerranéant’ out on the Adventurous Music label.
We stay in the same world now Minimal Drone GRL and Belial Pelegrim – A Remembered Land Long Forgotten
https://bricolageglasgow.bandcamp.com/track/a-remembered-land-long-forgotten
Low hum rises from cracked earth, ancient stone walls breathe dust, wind carries fragments of half-remembered songs across barren fields.
‘A Remembered Land Long Forgotten’ there by Minimal Drone GRL and Belial Pelegrim from the album ‘Movements of a Cloud’ out on the Bricolage label.
Time to get weird Keith Seatman – Another Strange Thing
https://keithseatman-cis.bandcamp.com/track/another-strange-thing
Ornate music box unwinds in attic gloom, figurine spins jerkily, something moves just beyond the torch beam.
Great work there in ‘Another Strange Thing’ by Keith Seatman from the album ‘Counting To Ten Then Back Again’ out on Castles In Space.
Next up a piece of my own as Trevlad – Furnish Rests Goggle
https://trevlad.bandcamp.com/track/furnish-rests-goggle
Old sofa sags under fairy lights, goggles fog with breath, synth arpeggios drift like cigarette smoke through thrift-shop clutter.
That was ‘Furnish Rests Goggle’ which is the What3Words geo location of a hotel I spent a few days in back in January. It’s from the album TVCL 10.
Next we go minimal and dark with Autistici – 2.25 Degrees of Internalisation
https://autistici.bandcamp.com/track/225-degrees-of-internalisation
Faint heartbeat clicks inside the skull, temperature drops 2.25°, thoughts fold inward like origami swans sinking in black ink.
You’ve been witness to ‘2.25 Degrees of Internalisation’ by Autistici from the album ‘Familiarity Unfolded’ out on the Audiobulb label.
Now to brighten things up a notch Heaven Topology – Adventure Compass
https://ingrown.bandcamp.com/track/adventure-compass
Needle quivers between impossible directions, star charts peel from damp walls, footsteps echo toward a horizon that bends upward.
Excellent ‘Adventure Compass’ by Heaven Topology from the album ‘Describer’ out on the king of listening parties Ingrown Records
I always like to add a pinch of Jazz to the episodes so here’s Robohands – Achilles
https://robohands.bandcamp.com/track/achilles
Tendon strings pluck taut, bronze dust settles on mechanical joints, slow-motion stride across cracked marble, heel exposed.
Great drumming there in ‘Achilles’ by Robohands from the album ‘Oranj’ out on Bastard Jazz Recordings
Now the longest track of this episode at just under 10 minutes. This is Never Sol – Dark Mountains, Red Dust
https://iuwerecords.bandcamp.com/track/never-sol-dark-mountains-red-dust
Boots crunch red powder, peaks swallow the sky, wind carries iron taste and distant thunder that never arrives.
What a trip in ‘Dark Mountains, Red Dust’ by Never Sol from one of the best compilations released so far this year ‘connected #3’ out on i u we records
Before we go our separate ways and the virtual tape clicks out. I just want to thank you all for taking the time to listen and I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links to the material are in the comments on Mixcloud, on trevor.se and on the channel substack.
To send us off Rhucle & Arbee – Plain from the album of the same name. Available on Noray Records
https://norayrecords.bandcamp.com/track/plain
Endless beige grass bends under pale sun, single power line hums, footsteps leave no trace on the flat, quiet expanse.

Ode to the fem

00:00:00 Patricia Wolf – The Grotto
(from the album See-Through)
Balmat records.
Soft emerald light filters through a hidden cave entrance, illuminating dripping stalactites that gleam like wet crystals. Shadows shift gently across moss-covered stone walls as faint ripples spread across a shallow turquoise pool. Pale vines curl downward, touching the water’s surface, while distant echoes suggest unseen chambers opening further in.
00:02:54 marine eyes – suddenly green
(from the album to belong)
Past Inside the Present.
Early morning fog lifts from rolling hills, revealing fresh blades of grass sparkling with dew under a pale sky. Sunlight breaks through in soft patches, turning the landscape a vivid, almost luminous shade of spring green. Distant wildflowers sway lightly, and the air feels newly alive with quiet renewal.
00:05:50 IKSRE – Granite
(from the album Solar Return: Golden Hour Mix)
Imaginary North.
Ancient rock faces rise stark against a vast, open sky at dusk, their rough surfaces etched with veins of quartz that catch fading golden light. Wind moves across the stone, carrying subtle grains of dust, while the horizon blurs into warm amber tones, evoking timeless solidity and quiet endurance.
00:09:01 Panic Girl – Feathers Of Hope
(from the album Memories)
i u we records.
Delicate white feathers drift slowly downward through golden afternoon light, catching gentle currents in an open meadow. They settle softly on tall grass stems, some twirling upward again before landing, surrounded by distant wild blooms and a sense of uplifting lightness.
00:11:26 Volker Rapp – Out of my Mind
(from the album Blade Runner 2099)
Cyclical Dreams.
Neon reflections shimmer across rain-slicked streets in a futuristic cityscape at night, with towering holographic billboards flickering in electric blues and pinks. Distant flying vehicles streak overhead, their lights trailing like comets, while the scene pulses with synthetic glow and detached introspection.
00:11:58 Andrea Cichecki – Different Step
(from the album Drawn Into The Edge Effect)
Castles In Space.
Footsteps trace an irregular path along a narrow coastal ledge at twilight, where waves crash below against dark rocks. Mist rises from the sea, blending with soft purple hues in the sky, and small stones shift underfoot, marking a deliberate yet wandering rhythm.
00:15:24 glo – kenóō
(from the album associated with experimental/ambient contexts, often standalone or mix-featured)
Empty temple halls stretch into dim distance, lit only by faint lanterns casting long shadows on wooden floors. Incense smoke curls lazily upward, dissolving into stillness, while subtle echoes of distant chimes linger in vast, open space.
00:21:22 Sachi Kobayashi – Healing
(from the album Weathervane)
Stereoscenic Records.
Gentle sunlight filters through a canopy of leaves in a quiet forest clearing, dappling the ground with moving patterns of gold. A soft wind stirs wild grasses and small white flowers, carrying a sense of calm restoration that spreads outward like slow-spreading warmth.
00:24:31 Amorphous Androgynous – Meadows
(from the album associated with their ambient/electronic works, often A Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble series context)
Wide open fields stretch under a vast blue sky, dotted with clusters of wildflowers swaying in a warm breeze. Butterflies drift lazily between blooms, and distant tree lines shimmer in heat haze, evoking endless peaceful expanse.
00:27:42 the black Albumen – provokovieff
(from the album associated with Buried Treasure releases)
Buried Treasure.
Abstract geometric shapes float in deep black void, slowly rotating and intersecting with faint glowing edges in crimson and violet. Forms distort and reform like liquid metal, creating tension through precise yet unpredictable motion.
00:30:09 Pogo – Alice (Extended)
(from the album Broken Beats & Magic Snacks or extended rework context)
Vibrant cartoon woodlands come alive with swirling colors: oversized mushrooms glow in neon pinks and blues, teacups float mid-air, and checkerboard paths twist into impossible loops. Madcap elements whirl together in playful, accelerating chaos.
00:33:13 Emily A. Sprague – Horizon
(from the album Mount Vision)
RVNG Intl.
A flat, endless ocean meets a pale sky at dawn, with thin layers of pastel clouds drifting low. Subtle waves lap forward, reflecting soft rose and lavender tones that gradually brighten, holding a meditative line of infinite calm.
00:39:13 Scott Gilmore – Subtle Vertigo
(from the album Subtle Vertigo)
Spiraling staircases ascend into misty heights within an old tower, their steps worn smooth and bathed in diffused light from narrow windows. Shadows curve along curved walls, inducing a gentle, disorienting pull upward.
00:43:35 Cate Brooks – Curig
(from the album Horizons or related Ghost Box-inspired works)
Rolling Welsh hills under overcast skies, with ancient stone walls dividing emerald fields. Sheep graze quietly, and faint mist clings to distant ridges, evoking rural solitude and timeless pastoral quiet.
00:48:38 Tim Shiel – Between Ends (feat. Lonelyspeck)
(from the album Glowing Pains: Music From The Gardens Between)
Spirit Level
Twilight bridges connect shadowy urban fragments, suspended over dark water where city lights reflect in fractured lines. Echoing vocal fragments drift across the scene, marking a liminal space of transition and unresolved emotion.
00:50:09 Dean Honer, Supreme Vagabond Craftsman – I Saw The Frogman
(from the album Frogman)
A surreal pond at midnight, illuminated by moonlight: a humanoid figure with frog-like features emerges halfway from the water, wearing an old coat, staring curiously. Reeds sway around lily pads, blending whimsy with eerie folklore.
00:53:11 Hong Kong In The 60s – Disintegration, The Advisory Circle Reshape
(from the album Disintegration or reshape series)
Old film reels flicker with decaying 1960s Hong Kong street scenes: neon signs buzz and blur, crowds dissolve into grainy static, and colors bleed outward in slow analog decay, reshaped into haunting nostalgia.
00:56:08 Anita Tatlow – in hallowed spaces
(from the album the farthest star)
slow echo.
Sunlight streams through tall arched windows in an empty cathedral, illuminating dust motes dancing in golden beams. Stone pillars rise into shadow, and faint reverb carries the sense of sacred, resonant emptiness.
00:59:34 Lisa Bella Donna – Big Briar Cove
(from the album *Moogmentum (Presented by the Bob Moog Foundation)
*)
Thick briar thickets encircle a hidden cove along a rugged coastline, where tangled vines climb over weathered rocks. Waves roll in gently below, and wildflowers peek through thorns, creating a secluded, overgrown sanctuary.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 177
08 February 2026

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Good evening, or morning, or whatever sliver of the clock you’ve managed to carve out for yourself. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, episode one hundred and seventy-seven. I’m Trevor, sitting here with a stack of tapes that feel heavier than they ought to, and a vague sense that the world outside might have moved on without telling us.
We’re dealing with a virtual cassette, two sides as tradition demands, twenty artists in total, the kind of selection that drifts between ambient drifts, darkwave edges, neoclassical touches, drone meditations, some post-rock undercurrents, a bit of hauntology perhaps, and the occasional flicker of something more abstract or collage-like. Places crop up too: London, Barcelona, Cheltenham, Stroud, Berlin, Hamburg, Manchester, Glasgow, a scattering across North Carolina, Portland, Vancouver, Toronto, even the Bahamas and Tallinn. The map doesn’t stay still.
The longest track we’ll hear is “Lost in the Morning” by On Idyl, stretching out across the open air like it has nowhere else to be. The shortest is “Heartspace” by Heaven Topology, brief enough to feel like a held breath.
Just before we dive in I need your help with a new show I’m putting together. I need stories about music that changed something in your life. A direction, a decision, a realisation. It’ll be the most important music of all time while I promote you as a fan, artist, label curator, mum, dad, whatever you like. If you don’t have a story which is highly unlikely maybe you know of someone who does. Let’s make something special together.
Now back to the show. Side A begins with a couple of exclusive tracks to catch your interest.
First, from Lo Recordings, Haiku Salut & Meg Morley with “Laugh and cricket” – a delicate weave of piano and field recordings that evokes summer evenings where insects compete with human laughter, gentle and unhurried. from the upcoming album – The Lost Score – dropping on Lo Recordings on 27 march.
Haiku Salut & Meg Morley – Laugh and cricket.
Next that other exclusive. f5point6, on See Blue Audio, “432 Hz (Remastered)” – tuned to that frequency people chase for calm, layered synths unfolding slowly, remastered to let the harmonics breathe properly. 432 Hz from the album retrospect with drops on the 13 Feb.
f5point6 – 432 Hz (Remastered).
Time Rival now, “Deleter” from the 45 track Murmurs in the Mist compilation which I released back in November. Don’t forget to get your entries in for the next outing before the end of March. Anyway This is Time Rivals Deleter – a quiet deletion of boundaries, soft electronics that erase the line between memory and the present.
Time Rival – Deleter.
NOUVELLES LECTURES COSMOPOLITES with “La chute des dominos” from Jaculus Jaculus ou neuf instantanés pittoresques de la vie trépidante de la gerboise des steppes Jaculus jaculus or nine picturesque snapshots of the hectic life of the desert jerboa– tumbling motifs, playful yet precise, like dominoes falling in a French steppe wind.
NOUVELLES LECTURES COSMOPOLITES – La chute des dominos.
Now here’s that piece you could easily hold a breath to. Heaven Topology, “Heartspace” from Describer on Ingrown Records.– interior spaces opening outward, warm tones suggesting a place where the heart expands without apology. A very underrated release from last August.
Heaven Topology – Heartspace.
Now we’re off to the Bahamas which is not often on the show. pjpriiincess, “my teeth crush bones” – from the NYP album my teeth crack diamonds my teeth crush bones.
raw, visceral, crunching through the surface into something primal and glittering.
pjpriiincess – my teeth crush bones.
Now a friend of the show. and one of the longer pieces this episode. Masefield Labs, “Station Keeping” from his latest album Shaded Escapes released just a few days ago. Big thank you John for the mention in the album notes. holding position in shifting currents, steady pulses beneath drifting layers.
Masefield Labs – Station Keeping.
zerosummer is the alter ego of Paolo Taviano, Italian musician. Here he is with “Nebula” from The Blue Hours on the wonderful Driftworks label. – cosmic drift, haze of stars forming and dissolving in slow motion.
zerosummer – Nebula.
Next a fantastic label that I do hope you’re all supporting. Uppsala, Sweden based, Passed Records. This next track and two more on the B side are from NYP compilations of artists they’ve released in 2025 so go get them now. G!GA LURGH, “Ambient Jam #1 (Previously YouTube Exclusive)” from The Passed Year 2025 on Passed Recordings – loose, exploratory, the kind of jam that happened once and lingers.
G!GA LURGH – Ambient Jam #1 (Previously YouTube Exclusive).
The penultimate track on side a from three artists who are fantastic in they’re own realms and just as great combined. Bahrambient, Retland, Kilometre Club with “Under Open Skies” from Cloud Paths – vast skies, gentle progression, open and unconfined in a small package.
Bahrambient, Retland, Kilometre Club – Under Open Skies.
And closing Side A, and a track that closes the compilation release it came from. Emanuele Errante, “Permanent Sunset” from Islas Calm Cloud, on whitelabrecs – eternal dusk, warm glow that refuses to fade completely.
Emanuele Errante – Permanent Sunset.
virtual tape flip
Side B, then.
Now a piece of my own. Trevlad now, “Glare Belonged Reaction” from TVCL-07 – reaction to too much light, refracted and softened.
Trevlad – Glare Belonged Reaction.
Next from the outstanding Hamburg based label Bureau B. Kreidler, “Im Betrieb (IV)” from Early Recordings 1994-95 – mechanical yet human, rhythms from the factory floor turned inward.
Kreidler – Im Betrieb (IV).
This next track has its own music video which if you like jelly you should check out. Crank up the volume and massage those neck muscles with Clark, “Civilians” from Steep Stims – everyday lives caught in electronic undertow, subtle distortions.
Clark – Civilians.
Pandacetamol, “Simply Pour” from Below the Surface on Mahorka – liquid motion, pouring without end, calm acceptance. A recommended Mahorka release from last November.
Pandacetamol – Simply Pour.
Next, as mentioned, another track from the Passed Recordings label and Ed Herbers, “The Moon (How Bright It Is)” from The Ghost of Christmas Passed. – lunar observation, bright and distant.
Ed Herbers – The Moon (How Bright It Is).
We follow this with another track from that other compilation on the same label. This is On Idyl, “Lost in the Morning (from The Fecund Wood)” here from The Passed Year 2025 on Passed Recordings – morning disorientation in fertile woods, gentle confusion.
On Idyl – Lost in the Morning (from The Fecund Wood).
and now an old friend of the channel Apta, “Shivers” from Apta Live Aviva Studios Manchester 04-12-25 – live capture, shivers running through the room in Manchester.
Apta – Shivers.
Next, for the penultimate number we head to Austin, Texas and artist Devras Plexi, “Relational” from Paradigm 10 Year Label Sampler on Glasgow label Bricolage – connections drawn in sound, relational fields.
Devras Plexi – Relational.
And now, as the tape hisses to its end, a few words before the silence returns. Thanks for staying with it. These transmissions aren’t built for crowds, and neither, perhaps, are we. I’ll be back when the next cassette arrives or the mood shifts—whichever feels less predictable. No fixed schedule, no grand announcements. Support the artists if any of this stayed with you—buy the music, share their names quietly. You can stream this one on Mixcloud for a week or so, links and credits at trevor.se, or in the usual places. Comments are welcome, though silence has its own merits.
And finally, Tallinn, Estonia based artist Paul Beaudoin with “to hold you safe” from 1514 Lee Street – a quiet promise held close. Minimal ambient at it’s finest.
Until the next fragment of time overlaps with ours—stay resonant, stay expansive, let the sounds find their way.
Paul Beaudoin – to hold you safe. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 175
01 February 2026
Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Good evening, or morning, or whatever sliver of the clock you’ve washed up in. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, episode one hundred and seventy-five. I’m Trevor, here again, turning over another worn cassette in the dim glow, letting the oxide whisper its secrets.
These tapes arrive unmarked most times, or with labels half-peeled, but they carry traces—field recordings folded into drone, synths that drift like low cloud over northern latitudes, breaks that nod to libraries long since catalogued and forgotten, post-rock edges softened by reverb tails, psych undercurrents that never quite surface, ambient excursions that refuse to resolve. Scotland lingers in a few of these grooves, Cologne breathes through one, Italy scatters light across another, while others seem to come from no fixed place at all, just coordinates lost between sleep and map.
No rush tonight. Twenty pieces, two sides, a flip when the spool runs thin. If the kettle needs boiling, let it. If the room grows cold, pull something closer. The world can wait outside the door.
It’s a special Saturday here in Sweden and marks the start of the Melody Festival. Which, however you feel about it makes the long winter up here bearable. How ever you feel about the music represented.
Now back to this outing.
First, something that moves like light through leaves in late winter. Camouflage by Kraft, from the Bureau B 2025 release on Bureau B. A gentle, sensual, unfurling, synths breathing slow. Headphones on, let time dissolve and let the frequencies claim you.
Camouflage – Kraft.
Now Lo Five with STORY, pulled from Superdank on Lunar Module. A definite nod to the ORB, A pumping beat over child spoken narrative and House stabs.
STORY – Lo Five.
Now taking us way down. E J R M offers Pitter Patter, part of Solar Return – Gollden Hour Mix on Imaginary North. Glistening drones that patter like rain on tin, layered with distant chords.
Pitter Patter – E J R M.
Now staying in Droneville. Wil Bolton and David Cordero together for Starlight Breeze, from How to Make Sense of Downtime on the Home Normal label. Notes drift against soft drones, a breeze indeed.
Starlight Breeze – Wil Bolton & David Cordero.
Now a shot one, 1:25 to be exact. Tim Story and Cafe Kaputt, taken from Buzzle on Curious Music. Melancholic Mellotron keys and a Hugh Hopper style bass, in a room that’s emptying slowly.
Cafe Kaputt – Tim Story.
The longest piece for the episode at 8 minutes. Droning Cats with NRV bring Dreams with Claws, from Cartography of Sleep on Barcelona based See Blue Audio. Claws sheathed in haze, dreams that scratch gently. Bobbling bass which sounds like it’s being played by the tide. and sparse porch friendly guitar lines.
Dreams with Claws – Droning Cats with NRV.
Caer Sgàil, from Scotland, with It’s The People We Choose (Exit Chamber’s Choose Wisely Remix), off It’s The Remixes We Choose EP on Caer Sgàil’s Bandcamp. Deep, shadowed rework, piano buried in mist.
It’s The People We Choose (Exit Chamber’s Choose Wisely Remix) – Caer Sgàil.
And now for something completely different. Modern Sound Quartet and Bucaneve, from Italian Library Breaks on Four Flies Records. Breaks with a Mediterranean lightness, snow in name only. Italian library jazz fusion from the 70s.
Bucaneve – Modern Sound Quartet.
Another longer track at 7:39. Andrea Cichecki offers When We Close Our Eyes, shared with track that follows by Tangent Universes on Connected 3 via I u we Records. Eyes closed, the world turns inward, synths cradle the shift.
When We Close Our Eyes – Andrea Cichecki.
And right beside it, Tangent Universes with A Suit Of Leaves, also from Connected 3 on I u we Records. Leaves rustling in some parallel season.
A Suit Of Leaves – Tangent Universes.
Time to turn the tape. Listen for the clunk, the hiss, the moment the mechanism catches.
We open Side B. Ekin Fil with bump, from Bora Boreas on Dutch label Dronarivm. Delicate, almost fragile, yet it lingers.
bump – Ekin Fil.
Now the perfect track for the moment as I’m recording this on Saturday morning. Wooden Tape and Saturday Morning, lifted from the MCPM018 Compilation Album on Moolakii Club Audio Interface label. Sun through curtains, coffee cooling, a cassette morning.
Saturday Morning – Wooden Tape.
Another Mellotron now. Osees deliver The Ceiling, released as a single. Garage-psych softened at the edges. Like early Floyd crossed with Cardiacs.
The Ceiling – Osees.
Next some original indie thinking. Foxwarren with Strange, off 2 on Anti- Records. Folk that tilts strange, sampled classic movie strings and bubbling bass.
Strange – Foxwarren.
Next Andrew Wasylyk featuring Gruff Rhys on The Cold Collar, from Irreparable Parables on the immaculate Clay Pipe Music label. Wonderful story telling.
The Cold Collar (Feat. Gruff Rhys) – Andrew Wasylyk.
Eafhm presents Luzne (Part l), from Eafhm – Luzne on Secuencias Temporales. Percussive world techno. Part one unfolds slow, light on water perhaps.
Luzne (Part l) – Eafhm.
Now the shortest tack of the episode at 58 seconds Herne von Bòrmanvs with Will O^ Water, from Synthergic on recent label friend Pente. Water that glows, will o’ the wisp in circuit form.
Will O^ Water – Herne von Bòrmanvs.
another short and sweet track at 1:42. Grocer Cat and closing up shop. the day is done, off A Day at Market on Hecate. Shutters down, keys in pocket, quiet settles.
closing up shop. the day is done – Grocer Cat.
Now some raw grit. Geese arrive with Bow Down, from Getting Killed on their Bandcamp. Post-punk angles, heads bowed in rhythm.
Bow Down – Geese.
And now, as the reels slow and the tape flaps loose at the end, a few words before the silence claims us again. Thanks for staying with it. These shows aren’t built for quick glances or playlists on shuffle. They’re for the long sit, the slow listen. If anything here stayed with you, find the artists, buy the records, send them a signal through the ether. It matters. This one streams free for seven days on Mixcloud—link below, or at trevor.se, where the credits live too. Comments welcome, or none at all. Silence has its own frequency.
Until the next tape finds its way onto the deck—stay resonant, stay expansive, let the waves carry what they will.
Finally, Jens Pauly with Naab, from his work on the great Whitelabrecs. Field lines drawn in Cologne air, quiet testimony.
This is Trevor, signing off. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 163
4 January 2026
Virtual 90 minute mixtapes for the sonically adventurous. 30 artists, two 45 minute sets. A spoken intro followed by music only show. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.

“Hello, Trevor here, and this is episode one‑six‑three of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Vent Making Diverts—which, as usual, is both the track you’re hearing underneath and a location you can find on a map, if you’re the sort who enjoys chasing coordinates on What3Words.
We’ve got ninety minutes ahead—two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know, some you won’t, and that’s half the fun. On the A side there’s an unreleased track by myself which can only be heard here—so if you’re collecting the oddities and outliers, this one’s for you.
On the B side, we’ve got an exclusive from Mist Signals—Someday Soon—taken from the upcoming Whitelabrecs compilation Sleeplaboratory6.0, which drops on the 17th of January to celebrate the label’s tenth anniversary. A decade of quiet experiments, soft-focus soundscapes, and late-night headphone magic.
Now then, starting back on episode 156, there’s a little cipher game running through the series. Each episode, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten episodes, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ll get it right.
The rest of the show drifts through funk, Idm, ambient drift, modular murmurs, rare views, puddles, mythology, and the occasional monkey. The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it.
So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 159
26 December 2025
Virtual 90 minute mixtapes for the sonically adventurous. 30 artists, two 45 minute sets. A spoken intro followed by music only show. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.

“Hello, I’m Trevor, and this is episode one‑five‑nine of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Twist Fondest Waffle—which, as usual, is both the track you’re hearing underneath and a location you can find on a map, if you’re the sort who enjoys chasing coordinates on What3Words. We’ve got ninety minutes ahead—two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know, some you won’t, and that’s half the fun. We begin with Arbee & Norvik drifting through a Montréal alleyway, Bary Center disappearing into the trees, and Pocket Lint reminding us that we grow through our friends. There’s a rise‑in‑love from micca, diamond‑cracking teeth from pjpriiincess, and a new sun courtesy of GODTET. Now then, starting back on episode 156, there’s a little cipher game running through the series. Each episode, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten episodes, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ll get it right. Later on, we’ll hear winter choruses from Unruly Disturbance, a 2025 remaster from Ian Boddy & Chris Carter, and a snowy Christmas‑Eve vignette from On Idyl. Leisure Prison gives us another living space, Tim Story offers a dust bale hole, and Clearways pings us exactly once before Michael D. Tidwell closes the A side. On the flip side, Tapemoth brings entropy, Marie dissolves into a Bahrambient remix, and IKSRE gives us granite from Imaginary North. There’s cartography from Droning Cats with NRV, Italian library breaks from Modern Sound Quartet, and a fading coordinate from Grant Beasley. Roedelius appears, as he often does, like a quiet blessing. I’ve slipped in one of my own—Another Oddly Screamed—before Floating Points and Raphah carry us gently to the end. It’s ambient, kosmische, wintery, slightly haunted, and occasionally festive in a sideways sort of way. The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it. So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you. First track up: Arbee & Norvik, Dans une ruelle, suite…”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 154
11 December 2025

“Greetings all. Episode one-five-four of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Decide Views Packages. That’s the track you hear underneath, and it’s also a location you can find on a map. I filmed it—it’s up on YouTube if you’re curious.
I’m Trevor, presenting ninety minutes, two virtual sides, fifteen tracks each. Tonight you’ll hear Ranga on Secuencias Temporales, Augen from Womblabel, and FernLodge via Unexplained Sounds Group. Mark Barrott with Norma Winstone and Leo Taylor bring a celestial touch, while Steve Hauschildt and Martin Stürtzer stretch into kosmische and deep ambient zones. On the B side, Dolphins of Venice on Mahorka, Ekoplekz, Portland Vows, and my own track Project Admire Spreads drift through the signal. Jah Wobble, Kid Spatula, and Pyramids of Phobos add echoes of spoken word, IDM, and hauntological soundscapes.
Labels orbiting here include Adventurous Music, Cyclical Dreams, Third Kind Records, Wormhole World, and Balmat. Styles range from ambient and deep techno to ritual electronics, kosmische, jazz-funk, and experimental sound art. These transmissions stretch across places—Mexico City, Lisbon, Leipzig, Glasgow, and Uppsala—woven into the resonance of the library.
The eighth TVCL album is on Bandcamp for pre‑order—it drops when we hit sixteen tracks. Every comment, every like, every subscription keeps the frequencies flowing. So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.
