Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 202

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 202 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 “Café Frappé” by Bolbec. Available on the amazing library music inspired album “Foutu Félin”. Released May 8 on the wonderful channel supporting Batov Records.
This Mix is a vibrant, retro-flavoured journey through 70s library inspired music, cinematic funk, psychedelic grooves, and dusty Balearic electronics.
Side A moves from playful alpine funk and sunny Tahitian exotica into hypnotic desert psych and cruising electronic energy. Side B shifts into raw dusty beats, warped library psychedelia, Ethiopian-jazz tension, and motorik drive before closing on a haunting ambient note.
Overall mood: Sunny, groovy, slightly sleazy, and cinematic with strong 70s/80s library nostalgia. Playful yet atmospheric — perfect for warm evenings, road trips, or crate-digging sessions. Energetic in places but never loses its cool, hazy charm.
I’ve been getting loads of material during the week so I’ve decided to add this segment called “Shout outs from The Inbox”
Which go to Dave Clarkson, Sick Robot, Exit Chamber, Audio Obscura, Stray Wool and Linear North. As well as channel supporting labels Batov Records, Castles in Space, See Blue Audio, Mortality Tables, Clay Pipe Music, Discus Music, whitelabrecs and Synonym Music. Also promotional champions fonodroom and free album codes.
This episode contains music from Castle If, HDRF, Mike Dickinson, Piero Umiliani, Pulselovers and many more.
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, if you can, subscribe — even if it’s just for a month. I put in the work you could buy me the equivalent of 18% of a coffee. As it stands I’m 1 subscriber short of myself or the artists getting anything.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
No breaks, just the music.

01:15:46 Volker Rapp – Out of my Mind

01:56:25 Luke Sanger – Snow In Spring
https://lukesanger.bandcamp.com/track/snow-in-spring
Delicate, wintry ambient with soft melodic touches. Evokes the surprise and beauty of unexpected snow during warmer days—gentle and bittersweet.
01:59:38 Minimal_drone grl – At the Edge
Sparse, edge-of-perception drone work. Minimal textures hover at the boundary of sound and silence, creating tension and deep focus.

Raining Fêtes Urge
Good evening… or good morning, wherever you are. This is Trevor.
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 Raining Fêtes Urge is based on the track Villages, Hamlets And Fêtes (version) by one of my all time favorite artists Matthew Davies better known as Vic Mars. It’s from the album From Different Landscapes, which came out yesterday Friday the 1st of May 2026. 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.

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-six.
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.
No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.
This episode is broadcasting from a record store in Uppsala where I bought Bitches Brew.
Headphones on. Let time dissolve. And let the frequencies claim you.
A Side
Survey Channel – Jaa’abaní (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
A bat-radar pulse that maps the night sky in flickering code – Peel would’ve played this twice.
Justice – Repercussus (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
Echoes rebound like guilt in an empty church; dark, devotional techno.
Hamandra – Nocturnal Conundrum (Secuencias Temporales, various compilations circa 2020–2026)
A puzzle wrapped in velvet dusk – hypnotic and slightly dangerous.
Tomoroh Hidari – Black Star Elevator (Mahorka, Music For Elevators Vol.4, December 2012)
Rides the shaft between floors of reality; creaking, beautiful, eternal.
Recidivist – Characteristic Techniques (Mahorka, Eastern Depths IV, September 2020)
Bulgarian underground grit that smells of solder and rain on concrete.
The Black Dog – Static Between Us (Dust Science / The Black Dog Bandcamp, Loud Ambient 2, April 2026)
Sheffield static that feels like two old friends not quite touching.
Darkhalf – The Cave (Dustopian Frequencies – recent compilation appearance)
Dripping limestone beats from somewhere far below the daylight world.
The Heartwood Institute – The Beach At Drigg – Rescued (Folk Police Recordings, Plague Dogs, April 2026)
Haunting coastal elegy rescued from the tides of memory.
The Science – Farewells and hellos (Mahorka, Eastern Depths IV, September 2020)
A two-minute postcard from the edge of goodbye and beginning.
*Photophobik – Coldchain (Woodford Halse – yet to be released)
Frozen signal from a label that never misses; ice-cold future ambient.
B Side
Hexham Wolf – The Night Singer (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
A lone howl that turns the dark into velvet theatre.
Dogs Versus Shadows & Nicholas Langley – Substation Doll Gets Its Own Back (Strategic Tape Reserve, 16mm, April 2026)
Cassette ghosts reclaiming the power grid – playful, eerie, perfect.
Phil Geraldi – Taos Hum (ChakraWhip / Not Not Fun, Rural Deceased Undiscovered, May 2026)
That low eternal buzz you can’t unhear once the desert gets inside you.
*Farmacia – Cinco Cuartos (Woodford Halse – yet to be released)
Warm, flickering quarters of analogue light from the Doncaster vaults.
RIKAAR – Raining Space Mellow X (Rikaar Bandcamp – recent)
Space rain that tastes like melancholy and neon.
MiDi BiTCH – Genex Turm [Belgrad] (Cyclical Dreams – recent)
Belgrade tower transmission beamed straight into the nervous system.
Tim Stebbing – Homeward (Cyclical Dreams – recent)
Gentle propulsion toward whatever home means tonight.
E.U.E.R.P.I. – Left-Right (Mahorka – recent)
Stereo panning that feels like walking through two parallel memories.
Salamanda – allez, pousse! (Salamanda Bandcamp – recent)
French-tinged push into brighter, stranger territory.
OID – i-ph jz master (LO Recordings – recent)
Glitchy phone-jazz from the wires between worlds.

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.

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.

EXPANSIVE WAVES 26

Good evening… or morning… or whatever smeared fragment of clock time you’ve drifted into tonight. This is EXPANSIVE WAVES 26. I’m Trevor — your host, your unreliable cartographer of the long haul, your occasional sonic conspirator.
This one’s not built for the impatient. Eight pieces. Each one stretching beyond twelve minutes. Together they uncoil for over three hours. If you came looking for hooks, drops, or anything that resembles forward motion, best to paddle elsewhere. Or just dim the lights, let the room breathe, and allow the ceiling to become a slow-moving planetarium. That works too.
Big thanks to Ivo Petrov at the Mahorka label for nudging me into a Plank Tone. I got gloriously lost and ended up delivering four. The first surfaced on April 8th. Tonight you’ll hear more of those strange, unhurried faces — independent corners, leftfield wanderers, music that refuses to be hurried.
We open with a twenty-four-minute soup. For anyone who’s ever been in a band, this is that glorious end-of-session moment when everyone’s a little fried and the music starts melting at the edges.
Merlin’s Spell — Merlin’s Spell [Full Demo]
A warm, hazy collective trance where sounds blur into one another like ink dropped in still water. Recorded back in 1978, gently refurbished for 2026. Out on The Dream Journal Institute — every penny heading to local libraries and quiet good causes.
That was Merlin’s Spell with Merlin’s Spell. Settle in now. Let the kettle do its slow work. Let the cat claim your chest like a small, purring dictator. Let the outside world keep spinning without you for a while.
Next, a dear friend of the show: Drew Huddart, recording as Scholars of the Peak. Fresh from a live set at Dubrek in Derby — the whole concert, audience whoops and all, because Drew decided not to chop it into polite pieces. Glorious nostalgic synths that feel like warm Sunday light through old lace curtains in the Peak District.
Scholars of the Peak — Live @ Dubrek Studios, Friday 10th April 2026
Bleeps and warm analogue sighs drifting through a room full of gentle human noise — the kind of set that makes you nostalgic for the future.
Now we arrive at the longest single piece I’ve ever slipped into this programme — a full hour, trimmed by a few cheeky seconds just so the software would swallow it. This is serious business.
OdNu + Ümlaut — Metamorphoses
An ever-shifting ambient landscape that never settles, never repeats, never lets you look away. Not lazy drift — this is meticulous, constantly breathing evolution. Out on Audiobulb, arriving June 6th. Prepare to be quietly astonished.
An old favourite now — the Russian master x.y.r. who can drop you straight into deep jungle with nothing more than a few well-placed field recordings and patient tones.
x.y.r. — altered zone (longform edition)
Birdsong threading through endless green layers, turning any room into a porch overlooking humid canopy at dusk. Tip for fellow travellers: when in doubt, add birds. They open windows that weren’t there before.
Back into the Mahorka family, 2019 vintage.
Thomas Park — Failsafe
Blade Runner rain on a corrugated tin roof, random synth trumpet stabs cutting through toxic haze. Neon signs flickering in puddles that never quite dry.
Still in the Mahorka stable, this time 2014.
Ab uno — Remorae (b side)
Deep drone waters where subtle synth lines move like slow silver fish just beneath the surface — barely visible, yet impossible to ignore once you notice them.
Penultimate unfolding, from The Jewel Garden label’s compilation.
Floating House Ensemble — Seven
Sax and strings delicately sprinkled over choral swells, like light catching on the edge of a slow-moving tide. As the Bandcamp page quietly reminds us: “I stood there, the whole day wrapped around me. I stood there, crying, smelling vine.”
And so the waves begin their gentle retreat for another evening. Eight long forms. Eight patient unfoldings. If any of them settled into the quieter corners of your night, you’ll find the links and love on the episode page at trevor.se and in the Mixcloud comments.
Feel free to leave something on the timeline — a half-thought, a soft sigh, or even a single emoji that somehow contains the entire universe.
We close episode twenty-six with Michael Plaster, recording as yttriphie.
yttriphie — Paddock of Skies
Twinkling space music from the album Solipsis on Projekt Records — delicate starlight that slowly swells until the whole sky feels like it’s breathing with you.
Until the next fragment of drifting time pulls us back into the same warm current… this is Trevor, signing off from EXPANSIVE WAVES 26.
Cheerio…

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 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.
