Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 136
30 October 2025
///isolated.elastic.ripples.
Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at Episode 136 of The Virtual Cassette Library.
Isolated Elastic Ripples is the episodes subtitle, as well as the track you’re hearing in the background and it’s geographical location which I’ve filmed and can be experienced on YouTube.
I’m Trevor and I curate these 90-minute genre bending drifts through frequencies from around the globe. No commentary. No interruptions. Just pure sonic immersion. Two, 45 minute mixes, 15 tracks per side with a side change in the middle.
Picture the listening experience like being at a music festival where the artists play on a rotating stage. Each act is allotted the time for their piece and as it ends the next act takes over rotating into view.
Styles for this episode range from microtonal to techno, from electronica to psychedelic soul. The musical keys in focus are D major and B minor.
This episode contains three tracks you’ve probably never heard before. from the soundtrack to the 22 collected essays Die Verschiebung der Zeit by Corina Retzlaff. I play the track Der Zeitgeist by Hendekagon available through Adventurous Music. this is followed by no stranger to the channel Greek artist Kostas Giazlas, better known as, Onepointwo, with the track, Shadow Dance from his album Melodies dropping on the 28th of November via Subexotic Records. The third exclusive track is by Dan Bean and is called Keine Bin from his upcoming album Bassduets dropping on the London based label which Dan himself curates Old Technology. Other labels and artists worth mentioning are Misha Panfilov who I saw last night here in Stockholm. Cheers Misha and crew for a wonderful gig, also Cyclical Dreams, Fragile X, Projekt Records, mRn, Mahorka Records, Bit Cloudy, Paul Beaudoin, Everyday Dust, DRONARIVM, Bathysphere Records, and, Mirai No Hagaki. You are all the soul of this show.

Special thanks to Free Album Codes—always fueling the episodes with Bandcamp gems. 🙏
This episode includes 3 exclusive tracks that you’ll probably only hear here before they are officially released. The A side opens with a descent beneath the surface—into fractured ground and emotional resonance. From Newcastle’s electronic frontier, Bartholomew brings us “Land Fracture”, a track from his forthcoming album Subterranea, releasing July 25th via Castles In Space very own Lunar Module.
Crafted by composer Chris Bartholomew, whose theatrical credits include the Barbican and National Theatre Studio, this piece fuses cinematic storytelling with generative electronics, orchestral textures, and raw sonic abrasion. It’s a meditation on instability—both geological and emotional.
🌀 “Land Fracture” feels like a fault line rendered in sound. Granular textures crackle beneath sweeping harmonic arcs. There’s tension, but also grace. Think Hans Zimmer’s emotional weight, Tim Hecker’s digital erosion, and Ben Frost’s stark minimalism—all refracted through Bartholomew’s unique lens.
The album Subterranea was born after a shared bill with Gordon Chapman-Fox of Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan. That performance led to this release on Lunar Module, and it’s already drawing praise from sonic visionaries like Leafcutter John, who described the album as:
“Cryogenically frozen Beach Boys slowly melting from the Earth’s final great glacier.”
🎧 “Land Fracture” is just one of eight tracks that explore resilience, collapse, and the beauty found in broken structures. The full album drops July 25th on CD and digital. If you’re near Newcastle, don’t miss the launch party at The Globe on July 24th.
🌌 Let the ground shift. Let the frequencies fracture. This is Bartholomew.
Also on the A side a moment of return, of memory, of warmth wrapped in stillness. This exclusive preview comes from the upcoming album Aunque llegue la mañana by Spanish duo Raúl Cantizano and David Cordero, featuring the haunting voice of Lela Soto.
The track is titled “Algo a lo que regresar”—something to return to—and it lives up to its name. It’s a quiet invocation of place and feeling, where Cantizano’s flamenco guitar gently converses with Cordero’s ambient textures. The result is a soundscape that feels both rooted and weightless, like a memory suspended in golden light.
🌀 Lela Soto’s voice drifts in like a breeze through an open window—fragile, soulful, and timeless. Her presence adds a spectral warmth to the minimalist arrangement, grounding the electronics in something deeply human.
This is not fusion—it’s communion. Flamenco and ambient don’t clash here; they breathe together. The track is part of a larger work that explores absence, light, and the quiet persistence of hope.
🎧 The full album releases July 18, 2025, via Noray Records, with a limited cassette edition and digital formats available. Until then, this exclusive track offers a glimpse into a world where tradition and experimentation meet in hushed reverence.
🌙 Let this be your anchor. Let it remind you of something worth returning to.
⚡️ The final exclusive of the episode follows directly after this.—a track that doesn’t whisper, it confronts. This is “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” by East London’s Bit Cloudy, from the upcoming full-length protest album U.S. Nadir, releasing August 8th, 2025.
Known for his work across labels like Castles In Space, Lost Map, and Front and Follow, Bit Cloudy delivers a sonic gut-punch here—an instrumental that seethes with urgency and layered defiance. It’s IDM with teeth. Ambient with a purpose.
🌀 “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” is a title that says everything before the first note hits. It’s a rallying cry, a reckoning, and a reclamation. The track itself is a dense weave of distorted textures, and melodic fragments that shimmer like broken glass in sunlight. It’s fierce, but never chaotic—every element is placed with intention.
It’s resistance in waveform. A response to cruelty, to erasure, to the systems that fail the most vulnerable. And it’s delivered with a clarity that cuts through the noise.
🎧 Pre-order the full album U.S. Nadir via Bit Cloudy’s Bandcamp Page.
I won’t be commenting between the tracks. You can do that on the time line. Don’t be shy.
