Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 206
Open-hearted, wistful, and emotionally rich with a strong cinematic feel.
Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 206 of the 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 “Unbegun” by Hverheij from the album “R-Un”. Shout out to Harry Verheij for sending me the album and a bunch of codes which you can find on the substack episode article or the episode page on trevor.se. Also shoutouts to Waxing Crescent Records, DRONARIVM, Third Kind Records, Woodford Halse and Clay Pipe Music for sponsoring the channel with material.
This episode puts the acoustic guitar in focus.
A warm, nostalgic, and gently psychedelic ambient journey blending sun-drenched summer haze, intimate minimalism, and wistful hauntology.
Side A drifts from breezy cycling melodies and hazy environmental sounds into playful psychedelic explorations and tender, emotional minimalism. Side B shifts between theatrical quirkiness, magical nocturnal spells, live organic warmth, and ends with lonely cosmic melancholy and quiet railway nostalgia.
Overall mood: Sunny yet melancholic, intimate, and emotionally rich. It feels like a golden late-summer afternoon slowly fading into a dreamy, reflective evening — perfect for relaxed listening, daydreaming, or quiet contemplation. Strong analogue warmth with a touch of magic and gentle sadness.
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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 164
7 January 2026
Virtual 90 minute mixtapes for the sonically adventurous. 30 artists, two 45 minute sets. A spoken intro followed by music only show. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
“Hello, Trevor here, and this is episode one‑six‑four of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Retain Happier Obeyed—which, as usual, is both the track you’re hearing underneath and a location you can find on a map, if you’re the sort who enjoys chasing coordinates on What3Words.
We’ve got ninety minutes ahead—two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know, some you won’t, and that’s half the fun.
On the A side there’s an exclusive by Foster Neville titled, Mow Cop, from the album, Through Lands Of Ghosts. Dropping on the 16th of January via Subexotic Records.
On the B side there’s a sort of exclusive by Hendekagon. Who’ve done a magical soundtrack to accompany the book Die Verschiebung der Zeit (The shift in time) by Corina Retzlaff out on Adventurous Music.
Also the track, Magical Interval, by John Haughey & Tarotplane is from their up coming Woodford Halse release called, WF 98 – Errata.
Now then, starting back on episode 156, there’s a little cipher game running through the series. Each episode, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten episodes, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ll get it right.
The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it.
So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 149
1 December 2025
Evening all. Episode one-four-nine of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Window Invented Drain. That’s the track you can hear underneath, and it’s also a location you can find on a map. I filmed it—it’s up on YouTube if you’re curious.
I’m Trevor. Ninety minutes here, two virtual sides, forty-five minutes each. Fifteen tracks per set. No chatter, no interruptions. The music rolls on like a festival stage that turns—one act fading, another coming into view.
Tonight you’ll hear an exclusive from Paul Beaudoin with Ümlaut. Also music from Bruno Bavota, Wil Bolton, and a track that has disappeared from a release by The Form Group. Later on, another exclusive from Foster Neville. Rival Consoles, Erik Wøllo, and dogs versus shadows are in the mix. Plus a track by zerosummer which I can’t seem to locate—drop a comment if you know. Labels like whitelabrecs, Mahorka, and Third Kind Records are part of the current orbit, each one feeding into this library of sound.
If you’d like to be part of these missions, send your work to trevlad@gmail.com. Track links are at trevor.se, and marked in the Mixcloud timeline. The eighth TVCL album is on Bandcamp for pre-order—it drops when we hit sixteen tracks. The second compilation, Resonances from the Depths, is under construction—get involved, send in your damp entries.

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.
If you’d like to be included on future episodes send your art to trevlad@gmail.com. Links to all the tracks are illuminated at trevor.se and marked in each episode’s Mixcloud timeline.
Pre-order the 7th TVCL album on Bandcamp. It drops when we hit 16 tracks. Subscribe and unlock 865 archived shows.
