Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 315
Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
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.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies.
Now imagine each episode as a colossal rotating stage — a great mechanical blooming lotus. You, the audience only ever glimpse a sliver of it at a time. Every artist is allotted the exact time it takes them to perform their piece. Then they rotate out of view, and the next act glides in. The stage spins at whatever speed the track demands.
The names of the artists and labels I’ll mention before each set — or “side,” as the cassette alchemists call them. Six little incantations per set, plus a general mist of what mood to expect.
Now the stage begins to turn.
Moss collecting light before the record exists, then tour days that travel only as far as their own shadow.
Side A gathers moss on a lotus that has not officially opened, parks Sol in the cat’s window, breaks Kerala dawn against industrial dusk, coils organisms above the weather, circumnavigates on a borrowed lighthouse, and smears 1982 until the hair still looks like a forecast. Side B lives in the umbra that remembers what cast it, opens water with no coastline drawn on it, retires speech for the evening, keeps a 2012 hold tone wearing pearls, jams Golden Acres until the punchline clocks out, and packs IDM for a journey only a shadow completes.
Overall mood: Contemplative, prismatic, and quietly migratory — full of exclusive October light, borrowed signals, and harbour lamps left on anyway. Perfect for dusk listening, hold music that never connects, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.
Shout out to my new subscriber Vivid Stars Forgotten. One more subscriber and we hit the Mixcloud minimum for a payout — the kind that keeps the channel’s lights on after dark. If you’ve been hovering at the door, this is the hour to step in.
Mood mist: moss collecting light before the record exists, a sun parked in the cat’s window, dawn as deconstructed club, organisms coiled above the weather, a borrowed lighthouse for a full orbit, 1982 seen through a lens that will not sharpen.

Exclusive track.

https://imaginarynorth.bandcamp.com/album/imaginary-north-transmission-012
Soft Focus ’82. The year smeared just enough that the hair still looks like a forecast.
Mood mist: songs that live in the shade, water with no map drawn on it, speech retired for the evening, a hold tone wearing pearls, a jam in the golden acres, tour days that travel only as far as their own shadow.
00:39:59 Hiram – Umbra
https://matthewhiram.bandcamp.com/track/umbra
From the album: Shade Songs. Year: 2026

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 304
Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
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 liquid, slightly haunted ambient journey through West Riding flocks, kudzu moonlight, and cities that refuse to end.
Side A watches the pinder keep the flock, then drifts under a kudzu moon, through solemn dreams beneath hushed currents, a Bethlehem journey, night-time puzzle sequences, and the slow pressure of mane nobiscum. Side B opens eternal cities, stirs a storm in a water-glass, presses a dystopian button, walks Verona’s water, swells with tide, and ends in soft cyber-space pulses.
Overall mood: Contemplative, damp, and quietly expansive — full of exclusive compilations, recorded liquids, and urban pull that keeps looping after the flip. Perfect for dusk listening, cassette-repeat evenings, or sitting with the water while the figures still gather.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred 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.

Today, Wednesday the 9th of September 2026 I’m in Dublin Ireland for my parents 65th wedding anniversary celebrations.
A twilight, slightly modular ambient journey through forgotten breath, moon gardens, and new constellations.
Side A opens in Zürich intimate forgetting and Berlin blue hour, then dips through Kansas-Welsh dream remix, coastal winter voices, Portland octophobic pulse, and Ostrava time-observation. Side B lifts into Amsterdam glowing trails, Bristol granular blue, a Home Normal moon garden, Melbourne tribute to Carme, a February ambient waltz, and a Preston snowflake preview.
Overall mood: Melancholic, textural, and quietly luminous — full of exclusive transmissions, tape-like processing, and small rooms opening onto larger weather. Perfect for blue hour, deep listening, or sitting still while the winter mix keeps breathing for you.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred 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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 287
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-287/
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. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
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 dynamic, slightly nocturnal ambient and experimental journey through elephant rhythms, fractured breakbeats, quiet shade, and slowly fading stars.
Side A moves from South Indian folk-electronic dance and spare war circuits into darkstep fractures, live trio gravity, breath stuck in buffer, and compact chip energy. Side B opens across inland oceans and modular comfort, then rises through live fire, soul-deep space, red-kite aerials, and ends as the stars go out one by one.
Overall mood: Textured, restless, and quietly expansive — blending rhythmic intensity with reflective stillness and cosmic closure. Perfect for late-night listening, focused immersion, or following the slow turning of the tape.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred 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.
00:00:00 Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance
An elephant dance unfolds through South Indian folk colours and electronic drums. Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance. Dark synths, drones and industrial textures resynthesize into deconstructed club motion. Voices and remixes from across the globe rise as fire brought to the rhythm.
00:10:51 Alex Ringess – War
Minimal circuits pulse under the title of war. Alex Ringess – War. Three or four instruments hold the space. Project files from Analog Abstractions carry the same mix forward in spare luminous lines.
00:17:50 Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix)
Darkstep breakbeats fracture and reform. Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix). Lush pads from oldschool rave meet atmospheric drum and bass and experimental breaks, each layer covering another band of the spectrum.
00:23:46 Slate Trio – BS7
Guitar, drums and bass lock into BS7. Slate Trio – Neil Smith, Matthew Jones, Alex Heane. Three voices move together in live trio gravity.
00:33:15 Substak – Breath stuck in buffer
Sunlight retreats while long shadows dance at the base of a tree. Substak – Breath stuck in buffer. Memories linger among colours that wait for morning. Quiet things sleep in the cradle of shade.
00:36:46 Danny Playamaqui – Chip
Chip fragments scatter across broken beats and saboteur sweetness. Danny Playamaqui – Chip. Noise, basses, synths and hall atmospheres pack into compact X4 motion, Plaza del Sol energy glowing in the mix.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.
00:43:46 Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull
A seagull rides above a hidden inland ocean. Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull. Familiar roads, weathered shorelines and forgotten infrastructure reveal unexpected connections. Eighteen compositions invite wandering among landmarks that have always waited beyond recognition.
00:47:09 Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort
Comfort arrives through modular skin and tape loops. Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort. Field recordings and generative chaos balance harmony with rhythm. Silence is sculpted into shared sonic connections.
00:54:57 Anam Gu Anam – Feu
Fire opens in live improvised heat. Anam Gu Anam – Feu. Electronica, ambient and experimental palettes capture a unique moment. Each take remains a personal explorative soundscape.
01:01:51 John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep
Soul deep space drifts through shifting forms. John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep. Soft pulses and distant echoes hover like quiet constellations, sculpting weightless horizons.
01:08:26 CRSY – red kite aerial
A red kite hangs in aerial current. CRSY – red kite aerial. Wings cut slow circles through open sky.
01:10:52 Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out
Stars go out one by one as the tides of time come in. Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out. A bridge of light leaps from earth to the unknown shore. Arthur Machen’s gulf yawns, then spans.
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.

LISTEN HERE
Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
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.

Now imagine each episode as a colossal rotating stage — a great mechanical blooming lotus. You, the audience only ever glimpse a sliver of it at a time. Every artist is allotted the exact time it takes them to perform their piece. Then they rotate out of view, and the next act glides in. The stage spins at whatever speed the track demands.
The names of the artists and labels I’ll mention before each set — or “side,” as the cassette alchemists call them. Six little incantations per set, plus a general mist of what mood to expect.
Now the stage begins to turn.
A luminous, slightly forensic ambient journey through corridors of evidence, papery lanterns, and planets that have not finished burning.
Side A opens an investigation the cameras invent as they roll, then cracks a cosmic oval, grows emerald armour between patio bricks, combs strings into sand that will not stay, squeezes two minutes of smear-test whimsy, and ends on a wind prayer written for people and cats.
Side B walks dry iron valleys toward utopian lullabies, cuts others from the seventh gemstone tray, argues a Messiah into demo clothes, wires splendour so slowly it can curve, refuses to hurry its illusions, and keeps Batov’s ten-year sun turning with all it can do.
Overall mood: Contemplative, analog, and quietly jewelled — full of evidence the ghost leaves behind, sand still deciding, and light that knows which pocket it came from. Perfect for late listening, slow wiring, or sitting with the corridor while the next spool still waits.
00:03:06 Department of Light – Investigation #1
https://theastralrealms.bandcamp.com/track/investigation-1
Album: ∆ ∆ ∆ ∆ ∆
Label: The Dream Journal Institute
Sofia walks a corridor that only exists when the cameras are rolling. Five triangles of evidence. The library fund gets whatever the ghost leaves behind.

https://cyclicaldreams.bandcamp.com/track/coda-a-pure-oval-shape
Album: The Egg in the Cosmic Crack [CYD 0165]
Label: Cyclical Dreams
An oval so clean it could be an eye or an Ei. The cosmic egg cracks, then politely puts itself back together for the coda.
00:13:06 Soda Lite – Emerald Armour
https://soda-lite.bandcamp.com/album/011-soda-lite-cape-gooseberry
Album: 011: Soda Lite (Cape Gooseberry)
Label: Music To Watch Seeds Grow By
Cape gooseberry armour — a papery lantern grown between patio bricks. The plant singing on a cliff that did not invite an audience.
00:16:05 Trem 77 – Staers
https://trem77.bandcamp.com/track/staers
Album: Textural Colour Spectrum Sandpainting
Henrik’s strings combed into sand. A painting you are not allowed to keep; only to notice while the grains are still deciding.
00:22:47 Daily Mail Comments Section – A Short Song About Sex
https://enofa.bandcamp.com/track/a-short-song-about-sex
Album: Now That’s What I Call Smear Test
Two minutes of smear-test pop that arrived in a dream before Charli could steal the name. Whimsy wearing steel-capped boots.
00:23:37 Frank Pels – Wind Prayer
https://ambientcat.bandcamp.com/track/wind-prayer
Album: Voyager
Label: Ambient Cat
A wind prayer written for people and for cats. Voyager opening a window the size of a synth trail and calling it home.

Album: Stars are Crashing, Home are Burning, Hearts are Changing-Notes from a Distant World/Detuned Lullabies for the Old Planet

https://cyclicaldreams.bandcamp.com/track/aetopus-others
Album: Gemstones VII [CYD 0166]
Label: Cyclical Dreams
Others, cut from the seventh tray of gemstones. Berlin School light bouncing off a stone that knows which pocket it came from.
00:43:25 SPTW – Messiah (demo version)
https://mahorka.bandcamp.com/track/messiah-demo-version
Album: EUTHYMIA
Label: Mahorka.
Messiah in demo clothes. SP-404 and an MPC arguing with pencils and bottles until euthymia agrees to sit still.
00:45:02 Dirk Serries – Slowly Wired
https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/
Album: Curves of Splendor
Label: Projekt Records
Guitar wired so slowly the splendour has time to curve. VidnaObmana’s cousin taking the long way around the intrusive world.

Single: Illusions.
Label: Daydreamers
Illusions that refuse to hurry. Belarus folded into Daydreamers’ fourth quiet continuation.

Album: Around The Sun – Batov Records – 10 Years
