Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 266. 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 gentle, introspective ambient journey through awareness, weightlessness, storms, and quiet reflection.
Side A moves from attentive listening and zero-gravity daydreams into open arms and sweltering heat. Side B drifts through afflicted warmth, dawn-to-dusk passage, dramatic storms, blank slates, mirrored reflections, and motivated absence.
Overall mood: Contemplative, tender, and atmospheric — balancing soft intimacy with moments of intensity. Ideal for deep listening, meditation, or peaceful solitude.
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 1 089 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 of the 24 buildings in the veil. You can read about it on my Substack page. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
On this TVCL episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Japanese sound artist yolabmi rouses us with their soundworld in the track “Awareness” from the album “Internal Resurrection” available via the wonderful Lithuanian label Amulet of Tears.
Followed by the collaboration of Tobias Lorsbach aka Logic Moon and JJ Rogalski aka Piscean Daydreams in their deep drone, space ambient track “Life in Zero Gravity” from the album Musica Universalis which you can get through Chitra Records sub label Ambient Cat.
Then Paris based Italian modular composer Alessandro De Nicola bathes us in drone in the track titled “Open Arms” from the 27 track double baby pink cassette compilation “Connection: sculpting silence” from 2024 out on Hylé Tapes.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Danish artist øjeRum (eye space), and their piece titled “Et Pust I Sivet”(A Breath Among the Reeds) from the 2022 album Butterfly Tongues More Ancient Than Flowers. Available through Amulet of Tears.
Finishing off the first half is Cincinnati, Ohio based friend Ed Herbers with a track many of us have felt recently titled “Sweltering” from the third of his four part album series titled “Season Cycle: Summer” from the always brilliant Passed Recordings label.
But first, to set the vibe is British producer Ryan Bissett, aka Halftribe, with a gentle, atmospheric invitation into the episode via the track “Listen” from the album “Disappear in Silent Ways” out on Dutch label DRONARIVM.
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 Rick Jones better known as Dark Fidelity Hi Fi in a short colourful cascade in the track “Dawn To Dusk Passenger” from the Limited Edition CD album “Your Skyline Correspondent” and that’s out on Glasgow based super label Bricolage.
After that Minneapolis, Minnesota based duo Amy McNally and Matthew Hiram aka Visible Light with their immersive field recordings from El Yunque Bosque Nacional, Puerto Rico and a piece titled “La Tormenta” (The Storm) from the eco-friendly CD EP Sierra de Luquillo: A Living Soundscape.
Then Los Angeles, California based friend David Strother brings the track that inspired this episode titled “Tabula Rasa” a short suggestive violin piece from his latest release “A Brilliant Midnight”.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of another track from that wonderful Hylé Tapes compilation “Connection: sculpting silence” this time by the amazing modular artist Andrea Cichecki and the bubbling sounds of “Mirrored reflections”.
Finishing us off is Québec based artist Mathieu Lamontagne better known as Arbee and the modular based track “Absence motivée” (excused absence) from the album “En vain” (In Vain) out on the ever astounding Ambient Cat label.
But first, Anthony Asher-Yates the artist behind Bålsam with a highly personal ambient track titled “Afligido” (Afflicted) from the album “Soñador” (Dreamer), available on a stunning cassette release from DRONARIVM sister label Le Mont Analogue, Enjoy…

///revival.brightly.debating.
Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at the coordinates ///revival.brightly.debating—Episode 124 of The Virtual Cassette Library. A title, a signal, a portal. Drop it into What3Words and you’ll locate the visual echo of this transmission.
The track you’re hearing—“Revival Brightly Debating”—isn’t just the name of the episode. It’s the pulse beneath my voice, the gravitational center of today’s journey. Available for pre-order on Bandcamp, already whispering through YouTube, it sets the tone for what’s to come.
Today’s mix is a 90-minute drift through curated frequencies—designed for walking meditations, mental meanderings, and quiet communion with the cosmos. No commentary. No interruptions. Just pure sonic immersion.
🌀 Side A opens with Eje Eje’s “Oyun Çorbasi,” Warmfield’s “On Fresh Air,” and Ben Holton’s “The Silken Way.” Swoop and Cross bring us into an “Old Kind World,” before I land us in “Landed Embraced Deaf.” Ranga, Akira Film Script, and blochemy shape the middle arc, while The Green Kingdom and d’Voxx close the side with crystalline textures and modular echoes.
🌊 Side B flips the signal with Autistici & Russ Young’s “Dissolved In Light,” Barker’s “Stochastic Drift,” and KATE NV’s instrumental “Telefon.” autumna, Fred Thomas, and BVSMV stretch the spectrum, while Perry Frank and o[rlawren] bring us skyward and inward. Dolly Dolly & Fogroom, weareforests, Ida Urd & Ingri Høyland, and Philippe Neau guide us gently to the final fade.
