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.
This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-nine-two.
We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous. But really it’s just me and the frequencies in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets we exist.
Stream us free for seven days on Mixcloud.
The background track you’re hearing is available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11 on Bandcamp. These episodes are sonic journeys with metaphysical flips at the halfway mark—perfect for long walks, mental wanders, or quiet moments alone with the universe.
Shout out to jungleangelo, my latest follower. If you dig glitchy IDM, you should really check out his Trainsporting series here on Mixcloud.
We’re bunching it tonight—three transmissions at a time. Like weird little dreams stitched into the set. No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.
This episode is broadcasting from Reaction Agenda Member.
Up first, three transmissions to ease us in.
We start with Solar 76 and the track Drought, via Castles in Space imprint Lunar Module.
Next, Fragile X with The Cocktail Party Effect, self-released on their own Bandcamp.
And closing this opening trio: Tycho and Forge, released March 4th, 2026 on Ninja Tune.
So… Headphones on. Let time dissolve. And let the frequencies claim you.
Staying in the zone, here’s the next cluster of three.
First up: Subphotic – Nothing Changes (A Begging I Will Go) (Morocco), from the Cities and Memory label.
Then Moray Newlands with The Rope Will Bind The Seven Books At Once, released February 13th, 2026 on his own Newlands Music imprint.
And rounding it out: THE GAYE DEVICE – Neon Hymn To The Infinite, self-released on his Bandcamp.

Hey everyone… Trevor here, welcome. I’ve always wanted to be a café DJ — you know, the kind who reads the room, feels the energy, and lets the music flow with whatever vibe the people bring in that day. Life took me down so many beautiful roads, but this particular dream… well, it’s still waiting to come true. So today, I’m bringing a little piece of that dream right here for you. This is my series of café and lounge-flavoured sounds — smooth, soulful grooves made for chilling, for unwinding, for good conversations and even better silences. Whether you’re sipping coffee, working on your laptop, curled up on the couch, or just needing a moment to breathe… Let these tracks wrap around you like warm sunlight through the café window. You’re listening to Trev’s Virtual Café. Pull up a seat… and let’s chill.
