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 deeply personal and introspective ambient journey centered on nostalgia, home, memory, and inner reflection.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 199
A sacred space for quiet reflection.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the new 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 track “Tenebris” by friend of the channel Gareth Evans, also known as own as HDRF. Available on the upcoming compilation “The Mystery of the Night”. Dropping June 26 on my own Bandcamp page. There is still time for you to get your entries in.
If you make music 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.
And if you’re enjoying the channel, please consider subscribing — even if it’s just for a month, it makes a real difference.
So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
No breaks, just the music.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 190
04 April 2026

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-zero.
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 available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11. 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.
Massive shout out to Iso Brown for spotlighting the channel — gave me about three hundred new followers and maybe one new listener. Also big love to my latest follower Alan Ranta, who’s recently done an astonishing 11 and half hour retro library mix.
Anyway
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.
Tonight’s episode is broadcasting from… healers.dominate.slices.
Eric Ericsonhallen — Event centre in Stockholm. Now it’s just a coordinate for whatever this episode is.
Let’s go.
FIRST CLUSTER
First — Apta with “Falter”. Manchester, UK,Dream-pop haze wrapped in post-punk bones.
Then Passepartout Duo — “From Belgrade”. Verona, Italy, Live-wire travelogue piece from their Pieces from Places series. Synth lines that feel like walking through the city.
Third — Pulselovers and “Timbral Awake”. Deep electronic drift from Doncaster, UK, textures that shift like light through old film stock. Via Woodford Halse.
And closing this one out: Maggie Nicols, Robert Mitchell & Alya Al Sultani — “Inner Sanctum”. Intimate, improvised vocal and piano ritual. Three voices weaving a small cathedral out of breath and keys. via Discus Music.
Here we go.
SECOND CLUSTER
Next bundle of four, fresh from the margins:
Italian artist Lorenzo Bracaloni aka Fallen — “This World is quickly Fading”. Fragile, dissolving sound that feels like the last light of an ending day. Via Bulgarias Mahorka label who I am guesting soon on their Planck Tones channel.
Then my own little transmission: Trevlad with “Retrial Twinge Memo”. Taken from the TVCL 10 vaults. A twinge of memory on retrial and a spot on the platform of my local train station.
Followed by Lorna Dune — “Void Coefficient”. Milwaukee, Wisconsin based, Sharp, precise electronic study from her Mosfet EP. Power flows and empty spaces.
And rounding it off: Hong Kong based Anita Tatlow & Runaway Horses with “lunar phase”. Gentle ambient vocal drift, like moonlight leaking through blinds. Via Echoes Blue Music.
Drift with me.
THIRD CLUSTER (pre-B Side)
Third cluster already. The night is getting loose.
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard — “Doom City”. Melbourne, Australia, Microtonal chaos from Flying Microtonal Banana. The pollution gods are laughing. Via the p(doom) label.
Then Mark Ellery Griffiths with “Synthi Sequence A”. Pure UK synth archaeology. Sequences breathing through old EMS circuitry like ghosts in the machine.
FOURTH CLUSTER (B Side)
Alright. Four more transmissions bleeding through.
Adrian Lane — “Reach For The Horizon”. Warm, horizon-staring ambient. Via whitelabrecs.
Benge — “Four Forty Two”. Precise, machine-soul electronics.
Asheville, North Carolina based Spooqs — “Hygge (Demo)”. Cozy but slightly unhinged.
And Djrum — “Three Foxes Chasing Each Other”. Breakbeat mysticism in full flight. Via Houndstooth.
Side B is now live.
FIFTH CLUSTER
Fifth cluster. We’re deep in it now.
CIALYN — “Sun Childs”. Bright, glowing electronic lullaby from Lille, France
Aucuba Replica — “Noni”. Strange fruit, stranger frequencies. Via Secuencias Temporales.
Ori Kaplan & Lihu Melamed — “Shangri La”. Mystical, searching jazz-tinged wander. Via Batov Records.
And Psyché — “Sabir”. Hypnotic, ancient-future pulse. Via Four Flies Records.
Still with me?
FINAL CLUSTER
Last cluster. Final transmission before the static wins. A long and a short piece.
Frankfurt Am Main, Germany based Jogging House — “Parker”. Slow-burn ambient reflection. Via artist curated Seil Records.
And finally Los Angeles, California based Elijah Fox — “Glass House / Clear Pool”. Crystalline, watery piano and electronics.
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, on Trevor Lewis on Substack, 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.

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.
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…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 184
08 March 2026

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Welcome to Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, Episode 184, your virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. As per usual we’ll dive into 20 artists. All the shows have three word subtitles for places that have some meaning for me personally. These are also used as names for the background music in show intros and outros. This episodes’ subtitle is notes.seaweed.rashers and is the geolocation of a rather good Sushi joint in Bromma Stockholm, Takumi Ramen & Sushi, which serves Burrito sushi rolls. Anyway, These episodes drop about three times a week with no fixed schedule—just pure passion for independent music. So do follow the Mixcloud page and the socials to stay up to date. Picture yourself settling into a cozy nook overlooking a misty ocean, cassette player in hand, as we embark on this auditory journey. Kicking things off with Dune by Atabasca from the album of the same name, out on Killer Groove Records, released March 27, 2026. This piece crafts a hypnotic rhythm that transports listeners across expansive, sun-baked terrains with effortless groove.
That was Dune by Atabasca.
Next up, Liboi with The rainforest (Central African Republic) from the album A Century of Sounds on Cities and Memory, released February 23, 2026. Capturing the raw symphony of nature in a way that feels alive and immersive, blending field sounds into an organic tapestry. I envision the dense canopy of ancient trees parting to reveal hidden streams, drawing us deeper into the heart of a vibrant wilderness.
That was Liboi and The rainforest (Central African Republic). If you’re not into all the talk between the tracks there is the option of subscribing for less than a cup of coffee on a monthly basis. Then you get these episodes as continuous babble free mixes a day or so ahead of what you’re listening to now.
Any hoo, Echoes lingering in the undergrowth, fading into a stranger’s whisper that pulls you toward unfamiliar shadows. here’s Stranger In Me (feat. autumna) by gribbles from the album githerments #1, released November 8, 2024. A collaboration that weaves ethereal vocals with subtle electronic layers, creating a haunting introspection that lingers long after the final note.
That was Stranger In Me (feat. autumna) by gribbles.
Coming next, Like fog rolling over jagged peaks, protocols of mist guiding you through obscured paths. Mist Protocol by Scholars of the Peak from the album PCT 29 – The Seawatch Observatory Tapes on Preston Capes, released March 6, 2026. This composition builds atmospheric tension through field recordings and drones, evoking a sense of watchful isolation on a rugged coastline.
That was Mist Protocol by Scholars of the Peak.
Up now, Against All Odds (Ultra Ambient Mix) by Arcane Trickster from the album Ambient Archives on Tempest Recordings, released February 25, 2026. This mix envelops the senses in ultra-soft textures that unfold like a serene, infinite horizon.Defying the elements in a vast, echoing chamber where ambient waves crash eternally.
That was Against All Odds (Ultra Ambient Mix) by Arcane Trickster.
A reflective surface shattering into nervous fragments, mirroring inner turmoil amid calm exteriors. Here’s Nervous Mirror by The Mistys from the album Situations | Useless Mouths on Castles In Space, releases March 27, 2026. This track delivers a glitchy, introspective vibe that balances unease with melodic allure, drawing you into its fragmented world.
That was Nervous Mirror by The Mistys.
Next, Imagine cascading waters in a mythical woodland, droplets dancing on leaves like Elven secrets. Shower in an Elven Forest by ESH from the album Induction Lounge on Imaginary North, released February 27, 2026.

Dropping on the 13th of March. This track constructs immersive drones that shift like weather patterns, inviting deep sonic exploration.
That was the exclusive Cloud structures by Ghostloop, unreleased at the time of recording, from Driftworks.
Imagine stepping inward through a portal of echoing tones, where transit begins in rhythmic pulse. Closing this side with In by DaFou from the album Berlin Transit [CYD 0151] on Cyclical Dreams, released February 13, 2026. This extended Berlin School-inspired journey pulses with synthesizer depth, evoking endless urban motion.
Flipping to the B Side now—Starting strong with 2 Notes by Kwils from the album Commemorative Compilation (ST100A) on Secuencias Temporales, released March 2, 2026.
