Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 303

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 luminous, slightly mythic ambient journey through leaps of heart, early fog, and skies that finally crack.
Side A opens in analog gemstone narrative and rough-edged improg driftwood, then eases through Imaginary North fog, psychill easing, Tsukuba shinonome, and a silken harp that frees its shadow. Side B contemplates Gnawa sorrow by hand, sits in blue, fades into a brighter age with trumpet, locks onto frequency of light, follows a sea diver down, and ends when the sky cracks over the rocky shore.
Overall mood: Expansive, contemplative, and quietly oceanic — full of exclusive transmissions, handmade sonorities, and light arriving after long water. Perfect for deep listening, late hours, or sitting with the shoreline while the next reel still waits.

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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 283

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-283/

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

The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,113 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.
A luminous, cyclical ambient journey through growth, presence, and quiet residual signals.
Side A moves from synthesizer motivation and passionflower florescence into thunderous self-declaration, whimsical DNA colours, whispering forests, and noctilucent evening light. Side B drifts through reconstructed Vietnamese microcosms, Windham Hill shadows, rain-soaked baseline drift, honey-warm communal jazz, silent Wardenclyffe towers, and ends with a dark horse moving through open fields.
Overall mood: Contemplative, organic, and gently radiant — full of cycles of growth, soft illumination, and quiet architectural presence. Perfect for deep listening, reflective evenings, or following the continuous unfolding of sound.
The tape unspools its visions.

00:00:00 Marc Melià – Cycle of Motivation
Synthesizer circuitry opens into quiet luminous beauty. Marc Melià – Cycle of Motivation. Ambient and experimental tones sculpt the open spaces between notes into a melodic tapestry. Shared sonic connections rise in serene sequential layers across the field of reflection.
00:04:36 KiF Productions – Florescence
A passionflower climbs through stages of growth in soft plant light. KiF Productions – Florescence. Secret seeds wait in darkness before the first stir of movement. Vines reach toward open light, drinking and climbing until full bloom arrives in pollination dreams. Fruiting returns the cycle to earth in patient unfolding motion.
00:09:22 Le Morte d’Abby – That I Am
Thunder and lightning gather around the declaration of presence. Le Morte d’Abby – That I Am. Lush chords whoosh into existence while arpeggios and percussive energy expand across the surface. The entire piece rises in spiritual comfort and unbridled radiant motion.
00:15:51 Daily Mail Comments Section – Estradiol Milkshake
A dream of new sound opens into whimsical smear-test colours. Daily Mail Comments Section – Estradiol Milkshake. Sonic DNA from shared lives drifts through the air, the surface expanding in inventive playful light.
00:17:27 Enofa – The Whispering Forest
A whispering forest surrounds a small modernist house in woodland setting. Enofa – The Whispering Forest. Acoustic and digital tones mesh across eighty minutes of personal vista. Ancient modernity rises through nature’s unstoppable force, the entire landscape holding claustrophobic and open power in steady motion.
00:20:57 The Green Kingdom – Noctilucent
Noctilucent light drifts across evening skies of soft piano and reverb-soaked guitar. The Green Kingdom – Noctilucent. Sampled textures and occasional synthesizer layers settle into calm airy space. The sounds open in dusky reflective presence.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:24:10 Dexba – Hồ Bán Cạn Việt Nam
A quirky melody reconstructs outdoor nature while classical piano gives structure. Dexba – Hồ Bán Cạn Việt Nam. The entire microcosm expands in self-contained luminous motion.
00:28:51 Akira Film Script – The Shadow of Windham Hill
Shadows of Windham Hill open across bidirectional cycles of existence. Akira Film Script – The Shadow of Windham Hill. Life and death, memory and presence move together in exchange. The track looks backward and forward at once, finding beauty in endings and beginnings.
00:33:20 Logic Moon & Piscean Daydreams – Baseline Drift
Baseline drift carries the music of the spheres through rain-soaked cityscapes. Logic Moon & Piscean Daydreams – Baseline Drift. Vast drones and spectral textures rise with richly layered field recordings. Organic and synthetic boundaries blur across industrial ruins and desolate rural landscapes, the cosmos holding hidden resonance.
00:36:52 Hill Collective – A House Is A Home Like Honey
A house opens like honey in warm communal light. Hill Collective – A House Is A Home Like Honey. Spiritual jazz tones breathe through collective improvisation. Saxophone, flute, piano, double bass and congas expand in earthy shared motion, the ensemble generating warmth and illumination together.
00:44:41 Paul Beaudoin – Wardenclyffe (Nothing returned)
Wardenclyffe towers stand in quiet residual signal. Paul Beaudoin – Wardenclyffe (Nothing returned). Granular field recordings and low-voltage processes form disrupted circuits. Tone, breath and resonance hum at the threshold of presence, the architecture listening to what remains.
00:49:21 Asha Patera – A Dark Horse
A dark horse moves through open sonic fields. Asha Patera – A Dark Horse. The landscape expands in steady luminous presence.
The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 274

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-274/

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 274. 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 textured, slightly nocturnal ambient journey through quiet intensity, natural shifts, and digital calm.
Side A moves from prowling glass and sea changes into moonlight grass, barrel flowers, reduced beats, and deep geological time. Side B drifts through wormeries, rushing ascent, liquid amber circles, grid edges, digital meditation, and ends on an old road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and gently dynamic — blending organic warmth with subtle tension and quiet modern stillness. Perfect for late-evening listening, deep focus, or peaceful immersion.
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 1,101 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 the sprawling and inventive side-project of Suncastle’s George Evans and Kristofer Thomas aka Paris Texas who together call themselves Glass Roots. Yes it’s an older release from 2020 but as it’s on Triplicate records it means that it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp. Which suits my unimployed world. Anyway the track is a stomping Idm piece titled “Panther Loud” from the album “The Idiot”. Go grab it for as little as you can.
Then a dose of slapped bass in a wonderful track titled “Sea Change” by friend of the shows Emily Sobool, aka Socool who has teamed up with Paul Griffin and released a collection of tunes under the name “Dreams & Riddles”
Next, another team up with Elizabeth Joan Kelly aka Orca and David Rodriguez aka Attack! with a highly original piece titled “Grass In The Moonlight” which is a great name so I think I’ll title this episode after it. It’s from a release out on the Mortality Tables label called, yes “Grass In The Moonlight”.
This will be followed by, would you believe it?, another duo in the form of Ali O’May and Frazer Brown as Dohnavùr and a captivating synth adventure titled “Flowers In The Barrel” from their latest release “We Owe Each Other Everything” which you can get on vinyl from that Castles In Space that’s in everyones library.
After that, not a another duo, o no, a Leeds based act of unknown numbers. Active between 1993-1994 called Adel Music Club. You’ll be treated to some sweet drum breaks and bongos or highly tuned congas in the track titled “Break Beats Nothing” from the release called “Golden Acres” out on the channel supporting FRBH Recordings.
Closing Side A is of course another duo. A name all of you know and are probably a bit tired of after this release. It is of course Boards of Canada with the wonderfully wobbly track “Deep Time” from their latest gem “Inferno”. That’s on vinyl in my collection and is available through Warp Records.
But first, to set the vibe: Glass Roots and Panther Loud.
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 a founder of Triplicate Records, Mr. Michael Southard aka Time Rival and an exclusive, I dare say, from his Bandcamp subscription library titled “Rush Up” from the album “stay safe out there“ which has an official release on the 2nd of October.
Then, speaking of Triplicate Records and their amazing back catalogue I’m playing Belial Pelegrim and an enchanting track titled “Circle of Liquid Ambers”. from the 2020 album “Torus”.
Next. No episode of TVCL would be complete without a dose of modular tweakings. We head to another channel supporting label Paris based Hylé Tapes and the artist Aurel Val with the track “Grid’s End” from the album “Mods-1”. Go grab one of the 7 remaining cassettes on Hylé Tapes.
Near the end we travel to Genoa, Italy with a downtempo summer vibe piece by artist Brioskj titled “Digital Meditation” from the EP The Persuaders! And that’s another Name Your Price release from Finlands finest label: Kahvi Collective.
And finally, a real exclusive track from a true friend of the show. A gentleman fond of words and espicially dialects. Mr. Graham Thorpe who of course is better know as gribbles at least for now. Keep an eye out for upcoming stuff in his own name. Anyway I’m playing a Lemon Jelly flavoured track titled “Owd Roa (Part)” from an upcoming release titled “Agatewards” dropping on boutique label Yellowbelly Records on the 4th of September. Keep an eye out for that.
But first, another exclusive, that makes three for this episode! That deserves a subscription from someone out there does it not?
Anyway, this is an amazing piece of audio art by Imogen Haley Baker who calls herself Enofa, and a rather haunted track titled “The Wormery” from an album called “Small Modernist House in Woodland Setting” which was sent to me by the wonderful Dan Seville, who runs the equally wonderful Subexotic Records. That will be released on double LP black vinyl from the 14th of August. According to the blurb for this release, Imogen made close to a hundred different pieces of music. A lot of htem, she says, will probably stay on her hard drive for decades. Well if you’re listening Imogen, yoou could enter one in for my quiet figures compilation.
Anyway
Enjoy…

Side A
00:00:00 Glass Roots – Panther Loud
Bold, prowling ambient with glass-edged intensity and quiet predatory presence. Atmospheric and sleek.
00:08:06 Paul Griffin x Socool – Sea Change
Transformative, oceanic ambient with shifting tides and collaborative depth. Fluid and reflective.
00:11:25 Orca, Attack! – Grass In The Moonlight
Nocturnal, moonlit ambient with soft grass textures and quiet natural wonder. Serene and evocative.
00:14:18 Dohnavùr – Flowers in the Barrel
Stark, bittersweet ambient placing fragile blooms against hard containers. Poignant and restrained.
00:19:27 Adel Music Club – Break Beats Nothing
Playful, rhythmic ambient that reduces breaks to their quietest essence. Minimal and quirky.
00:21:09 Boards of Canada – Deep Time
Classic BoC deep-time haze with warped nostalgia and geological patience. Hypnotic and timeless.
Side B
00:28:01 Enofa – The Wormery
Earthy, composting ambient with slow organic breakdown and quiet soil life. Grounded and curious.
00:32:17 Time Rival – Rush Up
Urgent, ascending ambient with quickening motion and soft forward pull. Dynamic and hopeful.
00:35:00 Belial Pelegrim – Circle of Liquid Ambers
Warm, circular ambient with molten amber flow and elegant, looping beauty. Rich and immersive.
00:38:58 Aurel Val – Grid’s End
Precise, terminal ambient reaching the edge of structured space. Clean and contemplative.
00:41:04 Brioskj – Digital Meditation
Quiet, screen-soft ambient designed for digital stillness and soft focus. Calm and modern.
00:45:25 gribbles – Owd Roa (Part)
https://www.yellowbellyrecords.co.uk/
Regional, weathered ambient with old-road character and gentle English texture. Nostalgic and grounded.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, due 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?

Overall mood: Intimate, nostalgic, and gently uplifting — full of soft emotion, playful moments, and quiet beauty. Perfect for relaxed evenings, reflective drives, or golden-hour listening.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 1 095 other shows whenever they like.

The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Funki Porcini and the final track from his 2002 classic Fast Asleep with an album cover that you’d think is AI created except that all the keys on the keyboards are in the right place and that it was created in 2002.
Finishing off the first half, Luke Sanger with a track I just love. That synth melody sends me afloat. It’s titled “Delusions of Chiral” and is from the 2023 album “Fool’s Fayre” which is out on the Frequency Domain label.
But first, Bibio with the beautiful guitar piece “Lovers’ Carvings” from the album anyone of you are wecome to gift me with a physical version of. The amazing 2009 “Ambivalence Avenue”. Out on Warp Records.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 264

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-264/

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 264. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
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.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A contemplative, atmospheric ambient journey through gravity, trapped moments, and fiery elements.
Side A drifts from weightless lapses and arcane nights into sinister awakenings, amber preservation, and circular comfort. Side B shifts through nostalgic postcards, patterned cosiness, collaborative warmth, and ends on flame and dated reflection.
Overall mood: Introspective, melancholic, and quietly wondrous with a blend of darkness and gentle warmth. Perfect for deep listening, late-night reflection, or peaceful immersion.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 264 episodes as well as the 820 plus other shows whenever they like.
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 trio of John Crombie, Christopher Innes, and Damiano Verna who together call themselves Arcane Trickster. I’ve chosen their latest single titled “Dead Of Night” which has just been released on Greek label Cosmicleaf Records.
This is followed by the track “Sinister Awakening” by Mantris from an album to get lost in titled “Echoes Of The Silver Screen” out on Bulgaria’s finest Mahorka label.
After that Edinburgh based modular artist Exit Chamber with the soothing piece “Trapped In The Amber Of This Moment” from the release “I Have Lied To You The Best I Can” which features remix work by some other channel friends including Asha Patera, Ed Herbers and Everyday Dust. Grab a digital copy on the Passed Recordings label.
The penultimate track of the first side of this virtual cassette is by French artist Anthony Elfort aka Toàn and the enchanting track “DEL 3” from the album titled “Solitarium” out on the fantastic whitelabrecs label.
Finishing off the first half is a track from the album Quieter by Robot Koch under his moniker Foam and Sand with a mix of analog synthesizers, live vibraphone, chimes, and bells in “Circle 62”. Get it at Jogging House curated label Seil Records.
But first, to set the vibe is Athens-based artist Kostas Staikos, better known as Substak with a deep and dark almost 15 minute piece titled “Gravity Lapse” which was made for Drone Day 2026 on grey clay radio.
Now settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
One side flip, just the music.

Welcome to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear an artist I know nothing about except they are on the fantastic Passed Recordings 31 track compilation album 130.81. Here is Poloma with minimalist piece “Calico”.
Also an exclusive track in the collaboration of ambient giants David Cordero & Aiko Takahashi with the piano piece “Arzino” from their upcoming album “Night’s End” which will be available through the wonderful Home Normal label from the 24th of July.
After that a master of sunset music, Mark Barrott, with the track “Variation (I)” from the album “The Exit Diaries” and that’s out on the Anjunachill label.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of the shortest piece of the show clocking in at just 1:31 seconds but showing the amazing sound of Hannah Peel in the track “All They Had Was Fire” from the film soundtrack album Underland, and that’s out on the Rivertones label.
Finishing us off is Hylé Tapes curator Richard Francés with some minimalistic drone bliss in the track “11 Février 2024” from the album Afterwork III (Février 2024).
But first hailing from Koblenz, Germany, Oberlin with his Fender Telecaster and field-recordings on the track “Postcard #7” from the album Ambient Postcards, Enjoy…

Side A
00:00:00 Substak – Gravity Lapse
Weightless, falling ambient with gravitational pull and delicate, lapsed motion. Hypnotic and ethereal.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 215

Little Sisters Curls

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. A 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
A warm, gentle, and introspective journey through pastoral folk, ambient guitar, and soft electronic textures with a strong sense of nature and nostalgia.
Side A blends intimate folk storytelling, dreamy coastal drifts, and lush emotional songwriting into earthy, organic soundscapes. Side B flows into shimmering downtempo, soulful introspection, neoclassical elegance, and playful folktronica before ending on a smooth, continuous ambient note.
Overall mood: Sunny yet melancholic, tender, and deeply comforting. It feels like a peaceful spring or early summer day — wandering through fields, sitting by the coast, or watching golden light fade in the evening. Warm, hopeful, and emotionally rich with a beautiful balance of folk heart and ambient serenity. Perfect for relaxed listening, quiet reflection, or gentle background accompaniment.
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.

Welcome once again to one of these spontaneous episodes – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that appears somewhere inside the set itself. This episode titled Evening Embers Rise is based on the track Rise by The Peace Race, from the album Shelter, which comes out on July 1 via the fantastic Mortality Tables label. All the other tracks happened to just fit the vibe.
So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it. If you can subscribe, even if it’s just for the month it would be a great help.

Ambient/trance-infused piece reflecting on Carl Sagan’s famous view of Earth. It blends IDM, neo-classical, and spacey atmospheres for a contemplative, cosmic journey.
00:23:03 Andrea Castiglioni – Somewhere on Earth Stories from Far Away Places
Cinematic, documentary-style ambient/electronic track. It paints evocative, worldly sound narratives with gentle melodies and distant, storytelling textures.
00:25:51 Biogen – Lost
Melancholic IDM/electronic cut from an Icelandic ambient techno compilation. It features drifting, emotional layers that capture a sense of disorientation and introspection.
00:29:51 Fallen – A Scented Signal of Decadence
Darkly atmospheric ambient/electronica with IDM and chillout elements. It conjures luxurious decay through textured, immersive sound design from Italian artist The Child of A Creek/Fallen.
00:31:53 Orghanon – Tame
Restrained yet dynamic electronic work from the Future in Motion album. It balances controlled rhythms with evolving, organic textures in a thoughtful ambient/IDM style.
00:36:01 Wilks – Break The Cycle
Driving track with focused beats and atmospheric depth. It delivers a sense of urgency and renewal from the Left Hand Drive EP.
00:40:11 Ellis Clasper – Auriel
Gentle, atmospheric electronic opener from the Periapsis album. It features delicate textures and introspective melodies, showcasing the UK artist’s subtle, emotionally resonant style on Waxing Crescent Records
00:42:16 CIALYN – Tolbiac Garden Floor
Dreamy, short-wave-inspired electronica from the 2016 album A Night Of A Short Wave Listener. It evokes mysterious, nocturnal garden atmospheres with soft, nostalgic synth layers and a hazy, lo-fi feel from the French artist.
00:45:56 Sick Robot – Journey to Mars
Retro-futuristic synth track from the A Field In Yorkshire album. It blends warm analog tones with a sense of cosmic exploration and electronic propulsion, characteristic of the Sunderland-based producer’s playful, IDM-tinged style.
00:49:55 Time Rival – Wax Delights
Short, shimmering electronic piece from Reaction Vol. 3. It delivers crisp, cross-genre textures with ambient and electroacoustic elements, reflecting the Chicago-area artist’s experimental yet accessible approach.

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 193

17 April 2026

///product.subsets.weekends

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-three.

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 it free for seven days on Mixcloud.
The background track is available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11 on Bandcamp.

The episodes are sonic journeys with metaphysical flips at the halfway mark — perfect for long walks, mental wanders, or quiet moments alone with the universe.

We’re bunching it today — 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 The Londoner pub in Stockholm with the coordinates ///product.subsets.weekends.

#

Starting us off: a shimmering remix from Loopatronica, a brief suspended moment from Hi-Field, and Virtually J stepping out of the shadows with something quietly unsettling.
Headphones on.
Let time dissolve.
And let the frequencies claim you.

#

Next we drift into Darryl Wakelin’s Swimming Lesson in a playful library daydream, Loula Yorke and Charlotte Jolly weaving something ancient and watery, and James Osland reminding us how everything starts from almost nothing.

#

Now the air gets heavier and more fragile: Sleep Chrysalis letting dreams fade, Scholars of the Peak dredging up sparkles from the deep, and Clariloops opening something very gently.

#

We cross into field recordings and memory: Ana Habesh calling from Vanuatu, Then we flip the virtual cassette and find willowlaun dropping the ultimate New Zealand ambient pop moment, and Hverheij stepping into the realm of outside possibilities.

#

Sunlight, crystals, and liquid spaces now: Miguel Otero & Raquel Pavón speaking with the light, Arcane Trickster in crystalline suspension, and Scav building a living terrarium.

#

Loops, snow, and southern flavours: petr drkula spinning prime loops, Trevlad wandering through bank snow turkeys, and Saïph serving Marseille au riz.

#

Thanks for floating here with me.
I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links and purchase paths are illuminated at trevor.se, on Trevor Lewis on Substack, and marked in the timeline like little glowing breadcrumbs.

If you’re still listening… you’re in the club.
No meetings. No rules. Just dust, frequencies and me.

Send files, confessions, whatever, to trevlad@gmail.com.

For the final stretch we stay with Mahorka and a couple of great tracks that didn’t quite fit in my Planck Tone sessions but fit nicely here: Mloski – Shaper Mloski bending the waveform like it owed him money… beautiful. followed by nfc – ddopl whispering the last word in a language the machines haven’t learned yet. From Mahorka’s very first release Music for Elevators Vol. 1 way back in 2004.

That’s the whole set.
You’ve been listening to… well, everything.

See you in the next crack in the wall.

Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 191

09 April 2026

///molars.blunt.notices

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 you just crawled in through a crack in the wall.
This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-nine-one.
We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous.
But really it’s just me and the frequencies arguing in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets I exist.
Stream free for seven days on Mixcloud.
Background track tonight is available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11. The episode is a sonic journey with a metaphysical flip at the halfway mark—perfect for a long walk, a mental wander, or a quiet moment alone with the universe that definitely isn’t watching you back.
Massive shout out to Ivo Petrov of Mahorka for pulling me into the Planck Tone series. Big love to my latest followers Andy InPhase. Check his mix Beautiful Nonsense. Cedric Wattergniaux (Kilmarth) who I played back on episode 173, Julian Kalchev ( Virtually J ) who I played on the latest Alone on the Dance Floor episode and Claudio Gasparini who has a massive following with less than ten mixes. You’re doing something right.

Anyway.
Headphones on.
Let time dissolve.
And let the frequencies claim you.
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.
Tonight’s episode is broadcasting from… molars.blunt.notices.
Which is the location of Miyakodori—a Japanese-style gastro bar here in Stockholm where the food probably whispers secrets when the lights go out.
Let’s go.

First cluster incoming.
The episodes longest piece at 11:24. Just making the 12 minute limit. Vel Raine drifts in like bioluminescent waves from some distant galactic tide—Galactic Ocean Waves Flickering. Anything over 12 minutes ends up on another series of mine EXPANSIVE WAVES.
Then Fm Outt with that beautiful, futuristic sadness—Incomplete Kisses. Out on the Secuencias Temporales label.
And closing the trio, yours truly with something off the old virtual shelf—Caravan Grew Vaccines.
These three are about to melt into each other. Don’t fight it.

Still with me? Good. The walls are thinning.

Next transmission packet.
Heading back to 2007 and Sevensy opens a glowing doorway with Moon Arch. Out on the Mahorka label. Who I’ve done a series of Planck Tone specials for. The first is available now.
Stewart Keller follows with the, graceful exhale—Swan Song.
Then another long one at 10:27. Lee Evans slides in sideways with Bow Tel Banti—because why not. Out on The Jewel Garden which is described as being part label, pure vanity
Three more stitches in the dream.

Third and final cluster of the night.
French artist, Near Stoic paints movement in light—Kinematic Lights. Out on Third Kind Records.
Foxwarren gets not serious in Serious.
And Time Rival affirms existence with Also Yes.
Lean in. This one’s slippery.

One last track before the flip from Paul Beaudoin who goes plucky on Mercury’s Whisper. Out on Chitra Records sub label Ambient Cat.
You know the drill. The frequencies don’t stop just because the clock does.

Side B

The lights are lower. The sounds are looser.
Same rules: three transmissions stitched together like half-remembered dreams.
First B Side packet.
Going live now. GODTET brings in Cantus—big, orchestral, locked-in groove with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra riding shotgun. Out on La Sape Records
TOMC follows with the 8 minute journey—18, Chasing the Sun (Part 1, 2 & 3).
And Portland Vows closes it with Stone Children—haunting little shadows from the north. Out on Third Kind Records.
Let these three pull you under.

Next cluster. Snow is falling sideways tonight.
Erik Wøllo opens with Snow Tides—vast, Norwegian winter textures stretching out like frozen fjords. Out on Projekt records
El Michels Affair slides in cool and cinematic with the Indifference (Instrumental). Out on Big Crown Records. I’m loving this release. Library music just fills a hole in me.
Then mytrip whispers annie—a Mahorka ghost from the archive, quiet and close.
Headphones tighter. This one’s cold and intimate.

Last trio of the night.
Scott Orr with the simple, devastating Scott. Which I discovered from the recent Late-Night Tales release curated by Barry Can’t Swim
Jackson Mico Milas takes us Sea, Interior. Also on That Late-Night Tales release.
And Grammy-nominated Tim Story ends the main transmissions with Decelarate or Fasten—because sometimes you need both at once.
One more cluster before we fade.

You just heard Tim Story’s Decelarate or Fasten, Jackson Mico Milas’ Sea, Interior, and Scott Orr’s Scott.
One final transmission still to come…
The great Anubis Rude closes the show with Transmutation. Out on artist curated label Ingrown Records.

That’s the whole set.
You’ve been listening to… well, everything. But the last transmission you heard was Anubis Rude’s Transmutation pulling us through the veil.
Thanks for floating here with me.
I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links and purchase paths are illuminated at trevor.se, on Trevor Lewis on Substack, and marked in the timeline like little glowing breadcrumbs.
If you’re still listening… you’re in the club.
No meetings. No rules. Just dust and frequencies.
Send files, confessions, whatever, to trevlad@gmail.com.
Send stories for Chord Confessions. I’ll read them in my sleep-voice.
See you in the next crack in the wall.
Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 189

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.

03 April 2026

///votes.riddle.tuck

votes.riddle.tuck. Brams burgers – great burger joint. Now it’s just a coordinate for whatever this episode is.

Hey.  Welcome back… or maybe you just crawled in through a crack in the drywall. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-eight-nine. We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous, but really it’s just me and the frequencies arguing in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets I exist.
Headphones on. Let time dissolve. And let the frequencies claim you.
We’re bunching it tonight – four transmissions at a time, like weird little dreams stitched into the set. No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.

FIRST CLUSTER  Four signals crawling out of the high passes and the liberation fronts. Sonic-Soma – Kinnaur Calling – Cities and Memory, Nepal field recordings turned into sonic soma.  The Music Liberation Front Sweden – Astra Shambotica – Submarine Broadcasting, astral jazz revolution. Grosso Gadgetto – Quadrata Dodus Act 2 – Bulgarian label Mahorka, who might be the reason for me not doing these episodes for a few days. Keep an eye and ear out for future Planck Tone episodes I may be guesting. Willebrant – Dell – atmospheric drone from down under. Birds in the rain. A must.
 You just survived the first transmission: Sonic-Soma, The Music Liberation Front Sweden, Grosso Gadgetto, and Willebrant. The space between us is definitely thinner now.

SECOND CLUSTER  Brain shells cracking open, hits amended, voids flattered, dust explained. Zerfranzt – Hirnschale – which means skull or, the nicer translation of, Brain case from Kaiseki Digital, who I’ve been playing lately as Free Album Codes has provided me with codes for some early releases from 2018. German synaptic spill. Trevlad – Hits Enjoyable Amended – self-released soundscape from the episode of the same name. A repeat name from the spot where I try and sleep most nights. This one’s from the album TVCL 10 and has nothing to do with the track of the same name from TVCL 09. Puscha – Sycophanatic – NEN, Melbourne cinematic hypnosis. Provided by Fonodroom. Everyday Dust – Without Explanation – Dustopian Frequencies, Scottish drone stories that evaporate.

You just floated through Zerfranzt, Trevlad, Puscha, and Everyday Dust. Halfway mark is creeping up. I’m starting to feel that metaphysical flip? The universe just winked at you and kept walking.

THIRD CLUSTER (pre-B Side)  Edges blurring, bodies floating. phorme – blur – Kaiseki Digital, Australian meditative haze from NSW. Also from 2018. Takashi Kusano – Floating – Sounds for the Soul, Japanese levitation.
And then comes the B Side…
 phorme and Takashi Kusano just lifted you clean out of gravity. Now the bench is empty and the cats are from hell.

FOURTH CLUSTER (B Side)  Empty benches, hellcat beats, half-human wires, clinical worms. Substak – Empty Bench – Daydreamers, Greek meditative park-bench snippet. Le Morte d’Abby – Nyanko No Jigoku Beat – dark electro from the neon underworld. Jilk – Half-Human – Bricolage, Glasgow idm hybrid soul. The Foot & Leg Clinic – Worms 2 – alternative rock diagnosis under fluorescent lights.
 You just sat on Substak’s Empty Bench, got bitten by Le Morte d’Abby’s hellcats, glitched with Jilk, and received a full worm examination from The Foot & Leg Clinic. Your body is now 40% frequency.

FIFTH CLUSTER  Appetizers of life, grace with nothing, tidal animation tags, Nordic sea breath. The Appetizers – The Life – Italian roots reggae funk from Rome. Rejoicer – Grace Was Happy (I Found Nothing) – LA epiphany of joyful emptiness. Sounds as if Weather Report did music for film.  Record Of Tides – Yoshimoto Animation Tag – Mahorka hauntological Japanese cels on the tide. Glitchy 8-bit crackles.  Albin – Havet – Paltunes, Swedish sea inhaling your thoughts. Everything Albin Johansson touches glows with a nostalgic warmth I can never get enough of.
 You just tasted The Appetizers, let Rejoicer’s Grace smile at nothing, rode Record Of Tides’ animation waves, and sank into Albin’s Havet. The apartment is underwater now.

FINAL CLUSTER  Rain shelter geometry and half-a-day London melt.  Kikagaku Moyo – Amayadori – Guruguru Brain, psychedelic Tokyo forest clearing. ff8282 – london / half the day – 4000 Records, fractured electronic daydreams.
 You just sheltered with Kikagaku Moyo and melted through half a London day with ff8282. That’s the whole set.
Thanks for floating here with me. I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links, and purchase paths are illuminated at trevor.se and marked in the timeline.
If you’re still listening… you’re in the club. No meetings. No rules. Just dust and frequencies.
Send files, confessions, whatever, to trevlad@gmail.com. Send stories for Chord Confessions. I’ll read them in my sleep-voice.
See you in the next crack in the drywall.
Cheerio…

EXPANSIVE WAVES 25

26 March 2026

Good evening… or morning… or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself floating in. This is Expansive Waves, episode twenty-five. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator.

This programme is not for the hurried. Eight pieces. Each longer than twelve minutes. Most stretching far beyond that. Each more patient than the last. If you’re expecting choruses, drops, or anything resembling urgency… you may want to try another channel. Or just turn the volume down and stare at the ceiling. That works too.

Massive shout out to Iso Brown on Mixcloud, who spotlighted the show and sent a fresh wave of new followers crashing in. Welcome, newcomers. I usually mention new followers but out of the 200 new followers I’m guessing that maybe one or two will like or comment, but if you do I will mention you and your channel in the next episode. I hope you enjoy the many strange faces of these outings—independent artists, leftfield corners, music that refuses to be in a rush.

We begin with what has been described as the album of the year so far.

Deep Earth Network – Land 2
https://richardnorris.bandcamp.com/track/land-2
Ancient soil breathing through cracked speakers while forgotten BBC voices whisper about ley lines and the first gods who were mostly moss.
So settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the cat sleep on your chest like a small, warm dictator. Let the world spin without you for a while.

That was Land 2 by Deep Earth Network from the EP Land out on the Republic of Music label.
JSF – Time And Space, Compressed
https://theastralrealms.bandcamp.com/track/time-and-space-compressed
Your childhood bedroom at 3 a.m. stretched until the walls become nebulae and the glow-in-the-dark stars remember they were once real suns.

That was Time And Space, Compressed by JSF from the album Astral Airways out on The Dream Journal Institute
Gareth Evans aka HDRF – Flowergate Coda – a glimpse into HDRFs live set at Switched On 2025 in Whitby last November.
https://hdrf.bandcamp.com/track/flowergate-coda
A single flower made of stained glass slowly melting back into rain on the roof of an abandoned Victorian greenhouse.

That was Flowergate Coda by HDRF from the self released album H25L. Do grab this release yours truly feature on the first couple of tracks.
*Zyggurat is Pete Grimshaw’s experimental jazz project – Out of Darkness into Light
https://old-technology.bandcamp.com/
Release date 10th of April
Climbing the last step of a black marble staircase that ends in blinding white dawn, barefoot, with no memory of how many centuries you just walked.

That was Out of Darkness into Light by Zyggurat from the album Sphere to Sphere dropping April 10th on the Old Technology label.
Correlations – 3300 WELLSPRING TAPE PHASER REF
https://correlations1.bandcamp.com/track/3300-wellspring-tape-phaser-ref
Every cassette you ever owned playing at once inside a warm metal well, tape hiss turning into soft spring water that tastes faintly of solder and nostalgia.

That was 3300 WELLSPRING TAPE PHASER REF by Correlations a self released track.
Michael Brückner – A Sequence of Colours – Parts 8
https://cyclicaldreams.bandcamp.com/track/a-sequence-of-colours-parts-8-10
Walking through a cathedral built entirely from slowly shifting stained-glass emotions—indigo guilt becoming emerald forgiveness becoming gold that has no name.

That was A Sequence of Colours – Parts 8 by Michael Brückner from the album A Sequence of Colours out on Cyclical Dreams
Projet -> Renard) Ost) – Avulsing Prometheus
https://maxencedubroca.bandcamp.com/track/avulsing-prometheus
The titan chained to the mountain suddenly realizing the eagle is just a very committed performance artist and the liver is optional.

That was Avulsing Prometheus by Projet -> Renard) Ost) who are Maxence Dubroca, Anita Franz & Simon Gris. This was from the album Jump Badger Jump.

And so the waves recede for another evening. Eight long forms. Eight patient unfoldings. If any of these pieces resonated in the quiet corners, you’ll find links to the artists and albums on the episode page at trevor.se and in the Mixcloud comments.

Feel free to leave a thought on the Mixcloud timeline. A sentence. A sigh. A single emoji that somehow says everything.

Until the next fragment of time pulls us back together… this is Trevor, signing off from Expansive Waves, episode twenty-five.
We end with 46 minutes from
DaFou – Time passing by, from the album Berlin Transit also out on Cyclical Dreams
https://cyclicaldreams.bandcamp.com/track/time-passing-by
Standing on a moving Berlin sidewalk at 4 a.m. while every second of your life files past like friendly ghosts waving from trams that never quite stop.

Cheerio…
