Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 226
Friends Manufacturing Space
Based on the track “Man and Manufacturing” from the album “People & Industry Special Edition” by “Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan”.
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 thoughtful and emotionally layered ambient journey moving between hope, nostalgia, and darkness.
Side A offers gentle optimism and delicate beauty, while Side B drifts into warped nostalgia, hauntological melancholy, and ends in deep, dramatic intensity.
Overall mood: Melancholic, reflective, and slightly eerie with moments of warmth and wonder. It has a strong sense of introspection and temporal retreat — perfect for late-night listening or quiet, focused immersion.
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.

Leaving Cemetery Timelines
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 contemplative and atmospheric journey blending experimental soundscapes with emotional ambient electronics.
Side A offers textural, slightly quirky collage-like pieces with piano abstractions and playful electronica. Side B deepens into introspective, melancholic, and cosmic territory — featuring tender vocal ambient, dreamy downtempo, haunting stillness, and delicate piano-led beauty.
Overall mood: Intimate, wistful, and subtly psychedelic with a strong sense of melancholy and quiet wonder. Perfect for focused late-night listening, reflection, or rainy-day immersion. The mix flows gracefully from curious experimentation into deep emotional resonance.
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.
