Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 278

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-278/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 278. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark. Whether you’re ready or not.

If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.

I’m trying something new by not introducing the artists, but instead incorporating their work into an incantation of sorts.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,107 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.

The tape unspools its visions.

A free-flowing, reflective ambient journey through sensory electronics, memory, and quiet personal growth.
Side A moves from biological-electrical parallels and anisotropic expansion into lo-fi peace, earth-toned experiments, momentary swells, and one-note joy. Side B drifts through early-synth sci-fi, molecular machinery, endless Ukrainian fields, youthful better ways, fluttering reassurance, and pleasant loss at C.
Overall mood: Contemplative, warm, and gently expansive — balancing scientific curiosity with emotional depth and soft analogue comfort. Perfect for deep listening, late-night reflection, or peaceful immersion.


Side A

Veins of living light pulse through a lattice of roots and circuit traces. The British Stereo Collective – Bloodrush. Biological pathways merge with electrical grids in a continuous glowing network. Neurological rivers flow into digital rivers. Sequencer patterns rise in free-form currents of sensory electronics, carrying the entire landscape forward in one unbroken surge of warm voltage.

Space stretches in every direction at unequal speeds. Ty Lumnus – Anisiotropic Expansion. Horizons lengthen into luminous corridors of shifting density. Particles drift along invisible axes, forming soft geometric clouds that keep expanding outward in quiet anisotropic bloom.

A solitary figure walks away from a city of fading neon into open starfields. LoveKrafty – Peace Out. Lo-fi cassette warmth coats every surface in soft analog grain. The path opens into a junkie space opera of surreal colour, where the traveller follows a new trajectory through swirling planetary dust and glowing debris fields.

Earth pigments swirl across an endless canvas of evolving texture. Analogue Path – Tempera Terra. Early exploratory tones layer themselves into rich mineral hues. The road ahead unfolds as a long sequence of warm analogue colours, each one revealing another stretch of open sonic ground.

A tide of soft harmony drifts across misted water. M. Cross Dougherty – Momentary. Melodic currents swell into pale horizons that dissolve at the edges. Every rise of the water carries deeper layers of luminous mist, the whole surface breathing in slow continuous motion.

A single pure note of C3 expands into thirty-one radiant nodes. aztechsounds – Nodes Of Infinite Joy. Each node blooms as its own complete world of infinite joy, all orbiting the shared frequency. The nodes rearrange themselves in endless new constellations, flowing seamlessly from one luminous form into the next.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.


Side B

Vast synth environments open into deep-thought corridors of soft phosphorescence. Richard Francés – 2013. Early electronic clouds drift through sci-fi meditation chambers. Extraterrestrial light filters across Terry Riley-like cycles, creating a continuous pathway of inner and outer consciousness glowing in the same slow colour.

A complex molecular machine glides along a long strand of luminous code. Akinetic – Cryocoma. Protein structures read the intricate sequence with steady luminous precision. The entire cellular landscape unfolds as a quiet reading of infinite genetic light.

Endless fields stretch under a remembered Black Sea sky of liquid gold. Bohdan Stupak – endless fields. A low massive drone carries the horizon while high-pitched textures float above it in shifting emotional colours. Memory opens the fields into wider and wider expanses of warm drone light, ending in a soft closure of computer-generated bells and glowing crackles.

Small silent steps form a continuous path of fluid sound. hershel – Better way. Processed guitars and piano tones reshape themselves into new luminous forms. The landscape moves in gentle everlasting motion, each step revealing another layer of intimate hopeful atmosphere that keeps evolving forward.

A warm ambient blanket of soft fluttering echoes wraps the entire space. Ian Hawgood – Flutter Echo Refrain. Fourteen gentle layers of reassurance drift through the air in slow cascading waves. The echoes form a continuous field of transcendental calm that settles over everything in quiet luminous comfort.

The shared note of C expands into a pleasant drifting openness. BAK – Pleasantly lost at C. The frequency opens into wide soft territories where the listener floats among glowing harmonic islands, carried deeper into the pure tone with every slow turn of the current.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, release date 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 277

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-277/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 277. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.

Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3 hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
A dreamlike, luminous ambient journey through nameless cities, rising rain, forgotten trails, and golden light.
Side A drifts from violet fog and modular labyrinths into voltage nests, Apalachee trails, hauntological villages, deep indigo night, and lost map coordinates. Side B lifts with rain falling upward, vast interlocking machines, Bach-coloured bird calls, sideways golden rays, wide unknowable valleys, and a single golden earring turning in zero gravity.
Overall mood: Contemplative, otherworldly, and quietly radiant — full of soft wonder, spectral warmth, and gentle expansion. Perfect for deep listening, late-night immersion, or drifting through imagined landscapes.

Side A
00:00:00 Almost RandomNight at the Nameless city
A city without name rises from violet fog. Docks of Celephais stretch into endless water the colour of old mercury. Towers lean at angles that fold inward. Almost Random – Night at the Nameless City. Modular currents braid through the streets. A single lead voice climbs like a pale recorder note, threading the labyrinth where colours bloom outside the spectrum and a lecturer’s silhouette watches from every window at once.
00:05:07 LOULA YORKEBroody
The roof opens. A nest of voltage and feathers pulses with heat. LOULA YORKE – Broody. Shared-system circuits glow amber and emerald. Nestlings open their beaks in perfect rhythm with the rising sequences. The air fills with starling-shaped waveforms that scatter across the studio ceiling and reform as constellations.
00:07:57 DionisafForgotten Trails of the Apalachee (ft. Liesbet Leroy)
Cotton fields unroll under a sky of molten copper. An ageing horse moves through tall grass that whispers in kalimba tones. Dionisaf – Forgotten Trails of the Apalachee. Liesbet’s flute drifts above the restored guitar like river mist carrying the scent of magnolias and dry October leaves. Forest trails glow with soft bioluminescence. Seven years of Mississippi light gather into a single warm horizon that keeps expanding.
00:10:03 Belbury PolyThe People
A village appears between the hedges, built entirely of library jingles and children’s television ghosts. Belbury Poly – The People. Minimoog laughter curls through the lanes. Melodica and psaltery ring from open windows. Vines part to reveal Pan’s Garden where the InterCity 125 glides past in slow silver arcs and every face in the square turns toward the listener with the same knowing smile.
00:13:34 Euan Alexander Millar & Henrik MeierkordShades Of Night
Night gathers in layers of deep indigo and charcoal. Euan Alexander Millar & Henrik Meierkord – Shades Of Night. Cello tones stretch into long translucent ribbons. Spoken words rise from within the drones and dissolve back into them. The entire field breathes at the pace of a single sustained note.
00:17:19 maps and diagramsEcho.atlas-B2 [lost.wav]
A map unfolds made of missing coordinates. maps and diagrams – Echo.atlas-B2 [lost.wav]. Waves of pure signal drift across blank paper, leaving faint luminous traces that rearrange themselves into new continents every few seconds.
Side B
00:23:01 SpiritualsRain Falling Up
Rain lifts from the ground in slow silver columns and continues upward into a sky the colour of candle flame. Spirituals – Rain Falling Up. Pedal steel and vibraphone form soft glowing orbs that float beside the rising water. Field recordings and voice memos drift through the air as tiny points of warm light, each one a living candle carried through the open dark.
00:27:18 DadanautInterferenzen
Gears the size of towers interlock across a black-and-gold cityscape. Dadanaut – Interferenzen. Workers and superiors move inside the same vast machine. Sparks of freedom leap between the teeth of the wheels. The entire structure hums with the low frequency of relief seeking its shape.
00:32:09 Pointe du LacHerr Gott, nun schleuß den Himmel auf (BWV617)
An empty living room fills with the calls of exotic birds that exist only as samples. Pointe du Lac – Herr Gott, nun schleuß den Himmel auf (BWV617). Simple arpeggios cross and shift like interlocking stained-glass windows. Bach harmonies rise through Sun Ra colours. The ceiling opens into a progressive lake of pure harmonic light.
00:35:04 Timo KuusiCrepuscular Rays
Crepuscular rays pour sideways across the room in thick golden beams. Timo Kuusi – Crepuscular Rays. Each ray carries its own instructional geometry. The beams expand until the whole space becomes a single radiant exercise in pure illumination.
00:42:39 The Green KingdomVale of the Unknowable
Evening settles in airy layers of soft violet and pearl. The Green Kingdom – Vale of the Unknowable. Piano motifs drift through reverb-soaked guitar lines. The landscape opens into a wide still valley where every sound has room to unfold at its own unhurried pace.
00:44:52 Guest Bartender Deborah ToyotaGolden Earring
A golden earring turns slowly in zero gravity, catching and releasing light in perfect circles. Guest Bartender Deborah Toyota – Golden Earring. The sound arrives as the first sensation of hearing itself: tender, experimental, shaped for the earliest possible listener. Everything remains open, unguarded, and newly born.

A soft, slightly quirky ambient journey through floating persistence, growth, residual hope, and quiet promises.
Side A drifts from stuffed repetition and first cultivations into remixes of light, machine minimalism, low flames, and mysterious beings. Side B moves through glitchy indexes, bubbling collaboration, woodland ghosts, emptiness, suspended paths, and ends on a gentle promise.
Overall mood: Contemplative, warm, and gently playful — full of soft textures and quiet emotional space. Perfect for deep listening, late mornings, or peaceful immersion.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,098 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear young Italian composer and producer Luciano Masala, better known as hershel, with the floating piece “Stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy” from his debut album silent steps for a better way, available on CD from Whitelabrecs.
Then Estonia-based Paul Beaudoin invites us into adaptive drift with “1st Cultivation” from his brand-new release spores.dat, out on Sheffield’s Audiobulb.
Next, Wahn appears via a remix: Dissolved’s reworking of “Not All Is Lost”, taken from the album Re: Echo Mist Light, in which 18 artists remix Wahn’s classic Echo Mist Light. The release celebrates Bulgarian label Mahorka’s 500th release.
We’re back with Whitelabrecs for French composer Anthony Elfort (as Toàn) and the track “DEL 1”, created entirely on a single machine — the Deluge — from the album Solitarium.
Staying with Harry Towell’s wonderfully prolific Whitelabrecs, we hear a guitar-based gem from Michael Cottone’s long-running project The Green Kingdom: “By Low Flame”, taken from the soothing album Vespera.
Closing Side A is an exclusive from my upcoming compilation Quiet Figures: Brighton-based BUNKR with the vibrating “The Beings of Borde Hill”. The album currently features 11 artists including Anhnch, Cries from the LTN, Keith Seatman, BUNKR, The Gaye Device, HDRF, Simon Heartfield, The Earl of Dean, Graham Thorpe, Visionary Lines and Substak. There’s still time to submit — the window closes 24 September.
But first, to set the vibe: hershel with “Stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy”.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear UK-based Bibio together with Vienna’s Dorian Concept on their bubbling collaboration single “Shame”, out on Warp Records.
Then we revisit older Triplicate Records material with Nottingham’s George Evans (Suncastle) and the good-mood creation “Ghost in Trees” from the 2020 album Platformer.
Next we head to one of my favourite labels — the one-of-a-kind Cyclical Dreams from Buenos Aires — for a minimal track titled “Into Emptiness” by Trittau, Germany’s Christian Fiesel, taken from his recent release On A Second Thought.
Near the end we travel to Alfortville, France, for Japanese artist Hiroaki Yamamoto and the opening track “Paths” from his album Suspended in the Wind, the latest release on Driftworks.
And finally, from the excellent cassette compilation Connection: sculpting silence on French label Hylé Tapes, I leave you with Ekin Fil and Dominic Coppola’s wonderfully soothing “Promise To Never Be Like Them”.
But first, we return to 2020 and Santa Fe, New Mexico’s Richard Alfaro with the glitchy “Index”, taken from the Trip FM compilation Red Shift. Being six years old, it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp — thank you to Triplicate Records for helping keep this channel sustainable.
Enjoy…

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 272. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A varied, slightly quirky ambient and electronic journey mixing French precision, personal storytelling, and hauntological grit.
Side A moves from kinetic speed machines and diary entries into monolithic atmospheres, cherry-sweet narratives, and limbic depths. Side B shifts through soapworks hauntology, glass colours, ticking pianos, translucent synths, and ends on questions of reception and what comes next.
Overall mood: Contemplative yet playful, with a mix of intimacy, nostalgia, and quiet curiosity. Perfect for focused listening, late-afternoon drives, or evening immersion.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,098 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear Paris-based artist Stéphane Laporte, better known as DOMOTIC, and a track from an album I’ve been spinning a lot since its release. The album is Fourrure Sounds Vol. 3 to 6, and the track is “Bolide” (which translates as “Speed Machine”). It’s one of my favourite releases this year, and the 36-track cassette version is available through Astra Solaria Recordings.
Staying in France, we have artist and label curator Richard Francés with “12 Décembre 2024” from the album Afterwork III (Février 2024), out on his own Hylé Tapes — where you can still grab one of the five remaining cassettes.
Next, another Hylé Tapes artist, this time Tokyo-based Raphael Leray, with “Akurah” from the 2015 release MONOLITH.
Then something a little different: Salt Lake City singer-songwriter and indietronica artist Josaleigh Pollett, with her captivating storytelling on “Cherry” from the latest album If I Let It Quiet.
We’re back on Hylé Tapes for the title track from the 2024 album Biodiverse by the trio Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster.
Closing Side A is my Glaswegian mate Fragile X with “Limbic” from the 2021 album Hive (previously featured on the Trip FM compilation Blue Shift).
But first, to set the vibe, DOMOTIC with “Bolide”.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear another track by Glass Roots from the 2020 album The Idiot — an older Triplicate Records release I’ve been revisiting lately (and all their older material is name-your-price, which is where my broke self tends to hang out). This is “Reds Blue”.
Then back to France for Mea Poulpa and the wonderful piano-based (dare I say almost trip-hop) piece “Clock” from the album Beyond Glass, out on Camembert Électrique.
Next we head to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and BVSMV (co-founder of Triplicate Records) with the 2017 synthwave track “Translucent” from the album Skies, available via Cardiff’s TimeSlave Recordings among other places.
Near the end we’re treated to an exclusive from the forthcoming compilation The Synthesis Co-Op Volume One — an amazing collective of artists, many of whom have appeared on this channel over the years (The Earl of Dean, Pulsliebhaber, HDRF, Swimming Lesson, Visionary Lines and more). The compilation drops 4 September. Go follow tscoop.bandcamp.com to stay in the know. Here is “Are You Receiving Us?” by the always delightful Drew Huddart, aka Scholars of the Peak.
And finally we travel to Buenos Aires for Aughflair and the 2017 piece “What Comes Next” from the album Rewritten, also available via the presently defunct Triplicate side-label Mangled Music Co.
But first, our friend Paul Broome, better known as Warmfield, with a track from the Woodford Halse compilation Undulating Waters 10. Warmfield has contributed to my first two compilations and also appears on the new Synthesis Co-Op Volume One (which isn’t out yet but is already stunning). This is “Waterton vs Walton Soapworks”.
Enjoy…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 269

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-269/

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 269. 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 quiet, transitional ambient journey through seasonal shifts, emerging light, and peaceful valleys.
Side A drifts between seasons, vast multitudes, falling chimes, and tape endings. Side B settles into valleys of peace, soft flocks, watchful ravens, precise night hours, fleeting warmth, and ends on a lonely dirt road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, gentle, and slightly melancholic — full of soft transitions and quiet spaces. Perfect 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 1 094 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 French composer Thomas Méreur under the name Heÿkla and the soothing drones of the track titled “There Might Be Millions Of Them” from the album “Echoes of Loneliness” out on the Driftworks label.
This is followed by a show exclusive cosmic floating track from maps and diagrams titled “tonal fall-Chime 2.0 [fragmnt]” from the upcoming release “beneath still stars“ dropping August 7 on the handstitched* label.
Then, Bristol’s finest, Jon Worsley, aka, Jilk and the textured atmospherics of the track “End Of Tape” from the album “Tetsuo II” out on Champion of Glasgow label Bricolage.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Manchester based artist Barry Smethurst aka Apta and a live take of his track “Emerge” from the 2025 release “Live @ Aviva Studios Manchester. 04/12/25” This track contains the only vocals on this episode, nice one Barry.
Finishing off the first half, friend of the airwaves, Cadis, Spain based, David Cordero and suspended atmospheres in the track titled “Segunda Linea” (Second Line) from the 2025 album “Numen” which means Divine Power in Latin.
But first, to set the vibe is the artist who got himself on this episode a few times by being super prolific, sending me material, and also by doing a collaboration with UK based artist Ian Hawgood, who mastered the previous played track and album. This is the blissful waves of Ian Hawgood & David Cordero in the piece “Between Seasons” from the album “Shifting Times” which is out on Davids’ own label Noray Records.
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 sonic travellers to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear the unmistakble sound of Jogging House in his track “Flock” from the 2025 album “Kiosk” out on artist currated super label Seil Records.
This is followed by Michael Cottone better known as The Green Kingdom and the guitar based ambient piece Raven from his stunning new release titled “Vespera” which means Evening in Esperanto. Thats out on a label that’s heavily on rotation here at the enclave. Whitelabrecs.
After that another live take this time by synth wizard Martin Stürtzer in the longest track of the episode clocking in at 21 minutes the space adventure piece “22:27” from the album “Dyson Sphere Beta“. A three hour live improvisation for Martins Birthday stream from 2025.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 267. 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 stylish, cinematic journey through hauntology, Italian library grooves, cosmic jazz, and dusty intrigue.
Side A offers ceremonial nostalgia, Arabian adventure, 1970s modernism, and space-age elegance. Side B shifts into psychedelic funk, flowing calm, low-orbit jazz, conspiratorial dust, fiery intensity, and extraction drama.
Overall mood: Retro-cinematic, groovy, and atmospheric — blending playful sophistication with subtle mystery. Perfect for golden-hour listening, stylish drives, or immersive evening sessions.
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 1 091 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.
If I mention the labels Four Flies Records, ATA Records, Batov Records, Buried Treasure or Sonor Music Editions you’ll instantly get the vibe for this episode. A cinematic journey through hauntology, Italian library grooves, cosmic jazz, and dusty intrigue.
On this TVCL episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by the hypnotic sequencing of Italian artist Giuliano Sorgini, in the track “Arabian Safari” from the 7” single titled “Savana Selvaggia” available through Four Flies Records.
Followed by friends of the show and one of my all time favourite outfits “The Twelve Hour Foundation” and the super recognisable retro moog sounds of their track “Roissy 1977” which is taken from the final Undulating Waters compilation, and Woodford Halses 100th release. Get it.
Then Sarnia, Ontario based “EKT” with a groovy synth outing in the piece “Pioneer Plaque” from a 32 track album called “Pura Vida” A fascinating release where almost all the tracks have super psychedelic videos. The album is also free to anyone who sends a screenshot or photo proof of them deleting Spotify and/or any social media app.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Eric Wetherell and the theme from the 1975 HTV series “Sky”. The shortest track of the episode at just 47 seconds. Suggestive and eerie. From the well sold out Album “Sky” on the Buried Treasure label.
Finishing off the first half, we go one year earlier with a track by Milan based Barigozzi Group and a bouncing library jazz track complete with cowbell from 1974 titled “Violet Lips” from the album Woman’s Colours where all the track names are a specific colour combined with a different part of the body.
But first, to set the vibe is the outstanding Jim Jupp aka Belbury Poly and the psychedelic organ infused track “Scarlet Ceremony” from his album “The Owl’s Map” which was originally released back in 2006 on the Ghost Box label.
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 sonic travellers to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear Lee Spreadbury better known as Gurulee and his wonderfully nostalgic prog-fusion jazz waltz infected track “Flo” from the EP “Into the Light” which is recorded at ATA Studios.
Followed by a group of artists that have probably sneaked their way into this episode in a few ways. Here is Leeds based, Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble, with the downtempo, sexy, flute injected, library piece titled “Low Orbit” from the album “The Kármán Line” which is out on ATA Records.
After that Nitzan Dana also known as Islands On Tape with a downtempo, hypnotic, cinematic and rimshot heavy piece “Dust Conspiracy” from the EP of the same name. Dropping October 16th on Batov Records.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of the psychedelic jazz-funk grooves of Italys Atabasca and the track “Hell Dorado”. Grab one of the last vinyls of the self titled album on Killer Grooves Records.
Finishing us off is the label that is also a band, Leeds based, “ATA Records” with a party lifter complete with handclaps and bongos in the track, “The Galata Extraction” from the must have album “The Library Archive Vol. 4”

For some reason I can no longer embed the shows here

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 260. 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 groovy, cinematic, and eclectic journey blending indie folk introspection, global psychedelic funk, French electronic cool, post-rock elegance, and atmospheric psychedelia.
Side A cruises through cosmic weight, mechanical playfulness, and sun-drenched grooves. Side B percolates with jazzy structures, vaporous textures, and sleek professionalism before ending on a pointed, trippy note.
Overall mood: Stylish, nostalgic, and transportive with a strong retro-cinematic flair—warm, hypnotic, and playfully sophisticated. Perfect for golden-hour drives, late-night listening, or stylish background grooves.
I’ve gone back to doing more podcast style episodes but I’ll do all the talking now in the intro as I’ve put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. There is just one break halfway through the episode to give the “virtual cassette” title a meaning. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few subscribers who get to enjoy the 260 episodes plus the 822 other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for 3 quid. It used to be a coffee.
This episode is inspired by the key of G minor and based on the amazing retro synth runs of “A Study In Vapors” by “Bluetech” from a release that’s in my top 5 of the year so far “Petite Constellations”.
Every tenth episode I do a best of show. So all these tracks have probably been featured by me over the years and have a special place, for me, in some way. On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Berlin based legends To Rococo Rot with a track simply called “cars”. Originally released on the 1999 album “The Amateur View” which should be in everyone’s collection.

After that Vincent Taeger aka Tiger Tigre together with, well, himself, in the track “Sport Mécanique” which takes me back to my childhood. My parents watch all sports on tv and this just puts me in that world of 80s sports jingles. It’s taken from the compilation album “ERR REC Library Vol.4 Physical Activity” from 2023.
Ending the A side is the Los Angeles, California based roots reggae infected Pachy García aka Pachyman and the track “Sunset Sound” from the album “The Return of…” released in 2021.
Starting off Side B with Vienna, Austria based synth maestro Dorian Concept and the track “Eigendynamik (Elevator Version)” from the 2020 album “The Jitters”.
Followed by my favourite Stockholm based artist of recent years Joel Danell better known as Sven Wunder. Here with the piece “Pop-Jazz Structures”. Every one of Joels tracks puts me in a happy space. This is from his 2023 album “Late Again”.
Then anyone who has followed the channel knows that I love odd time signatures and the track “Percolator” is in 5/8 and is by the one of a kind originals Stereolab. Taken from the 2025 album “Emperor Tomato Ketchup”.
This leads into the featured Seattle, Washington based, Evan Bartholomew, better known as, Bluetech track “A Study In Vapors”.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of one of my all time go to artists Air with the track “Les Professionnels” from their debut 1997 EP Premiers Symptômes.
Finishing us off is Salvia Plath aka RUN DMT with nostalgic samples over a hypnotic acoustic guitar line in the track “Money” from the 2009 album BONG VOYAGE.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 258

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Apologies for the sound quality today. I’m on holidays and find it hard to hard to get a spot quiet enough to record. Anyway…
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 258. 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 quirky, colourful, and atmospheric ambient journey through vintage whimsy, seasonal introspection, and urban environments.
Side A moves from posh timepieces and color seas into winter frost, fluid transference, cloud gazing, and returning light. Side B shifts through modular habitats, Trieste streets, secure institutions, and cinematic projections.
Overall mood: Playful yet contemplative, warm, and slightly uncanny with a mix of nostalgia and modern reflection. Perfect for adventurous listening or relaxed evenings.
I’ve gone back to doing more podcast like episodes but I’ll do all the talking now in the intro as I put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. There is just one break halfway through to give the “virtual cassette” meaning. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my too few subscribers who get to enjoy the 258 episodes plus the 820 other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for €3 anymore. It used to be a coffee.
Episode 258 is based on the track “Habitat 67” by my friends “The Twelve Hour Foundation” from the release “Expanded & Repurposed” coming out on their Bandcamp on July 27th.

On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Queens, New York based Chris Moore aka Light Vortex with the sound art track “Awash In A Sea Of Color” from the album “Aurora In Georgian Bay” out on Mortality Tables.
My friend of the channel Matthew Davies aka Vic Mars with the Chilled piece we all need right now “Winter II” from his collection of must have tracks “From Different Landscapes”.
A beat driven piece by Paris, France based Stephane Laporte aka Domotic from his amazing 36 track album which I’ve been playing a lot recently “Fourrure Sounds Vol. 3 to 6” out on Virtual Cassette supporting label Astra Solaria Recordings.
Then Canadian artist Grant Gard, who records as landtitles with the clarinet infused track “staring at the clouds” from the album “geographic beings, phosphorus mountains” out on whitelabrecs.
After that Tucson, Arizona based Kirk Markarian aka Neuro… No Neuro with the ambient swelling track “You Wasted Your Time” from the album “MemLoss” out on the Sheffield based Audiobulb label.
Then from the latest Cyclical Dreams label release comes the wonderfully stereo panned piece “The Light That Returns” by Adam Filip from the album “The Returning Circle”.
Ending the A side is Michael Plaster aka yttriphie with the Boards of Canada tinged “A Narrow Field of View” from the album “Solipsis” out on Projekt Records.
Starting off Side B is the inspiration for this episode and one of those bands that are instantly recognisable and just a good mood pill in general. They are of course Polly Hulse and Jez Butler collectively known as The Twelve Hour Foundation. With a track from their latest release “Expanded & Repurposed” with the track “Habitat 67” featuring the brilliant Alan Gubby of Buried Treasure / Revbjelde fame adding vibraphone to this classic.
This flows into Brutalist architecture inspired “Rozzol Melara [Triest]” by Fredy Engel aka MiDi BiTCH from another Cyclical Dreams release titled “Habitat”.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of another favourite artist from the past few years Cate Francesca Brooks and the hypnotic piece “Secure Environments Ltd” from the album “For Your Security”.
And finishing us off is the 18 minute 25 second piece “Untitled 1 [a,b,c,d,e]” by The Projectionist from the rather special label The Dream Journal Institute whose artists don’t seem to actually exist yet they are not AI. This track would have ended up on an episode of Expansive Waves but I’m not doing them any more as they just aren’t worth it. Too much time equals too few listeners.
But setting the vibe for all of this is Portsmouth based legend Keith Seatman with his track “A Posh Hat and Timepiece” from the album “Counting To Ten Then Back Again” out on Castles In Space.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

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.
