Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 292
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-292/
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 seasonal, slightly restless ambient journey through summer heat, stored sequences, and coastal gaps.
Side A opens in Indiana solstice light and green energy, then moves through overloaded London rooms, shifting Quiet Figures, 1980s earthshine slowness, and warped inner-weather shelves. Side B holds Mediterranean headland water, rusty robot dreams, Mersey light, Tokyo sequences from some other time, a choked dub-techno pulse, and ends at Hope Gap under Ravilious colours.
Overall mood: Warm, nostalgic, and quietly unstable — full of stored time, coastal air, and communities hanging together. Perfect for late-summer listening, train windows, or sitting with what the season still holds.
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.

00:17:55 Erik Wøllo – Fast and Slow
Erik Wøllo – Fast and Slow. Earthshine lights the unseen face. Four-track and eight-track machines return 1980s slowness. Drones and sequencer pulses rise and subside across twenty short crossings.
00:20:56 SPTW – Shelves
SPTW – Shelves. Warped loops, liquefied vocals and analog tape textures sit beside pencils, desks and bottles. Two collagists keep their heads above water in a time-capsule of inner weather.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.
00:23:21 Neglect – Cap De Creus (original mix)
Neglect – Cap De Creus (original mix). Headland light and Mediterranean water hold the coast.
00:29:16 Autonomaton – Rusty robots dream

00:33:04 autumna – helen and her cousin
autumna – helen and her cousin. Capstone festival days give way to quieter corners. Light over the Mersey and street sound set the pace.
00:36:41 Nekomachi – Some Other Time
Nekomachi – Some Other Time. Fifteen years of stored sequences run through effects and samples in Tokyo rooms, no DAW required.
00:38:09 Yunze Ou – Choke Array

A grounded yet otherworldly ambient journey through suburban roots, dissolving melodies, secret stones, and unravelled dreams.
Side A takes root in overlooked verges and massive voltage, then unfolds along early analogue paths, melting gestures, nights of silver tears, and Leeds-cloud haze. Side B opens into celestial mediumship and the hidden life of stones, then moves through whispering figures, closed-eye warmth, Lovecraftian walking, and a dream seen that day.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly melancholic, and richly textured — blending organic observation, analogue warmth, and quiet mystery. Perfect for deep listening, late-night walks, or sitting still while the world slowly unravels.
The tape unspools its visions.
Side A
00:03:28 ambalek – Roots
Overlooked suburban corners reveal themselves in slow photographic light. ambalek – Roots. Nature’s small moments gather among fences and quiet verges, each observation taking root in soft organic colour.
00:07:43 Baldocaster & Prog Mountain – Massive Dynamic

Leeds jams from the early nineties melt the clouds above. Adel Music Club – Melt the Clouds. Assorted tunes recorded in various rooms rise through a photographic slide bought at the outdoor market, the sky itself softening into warm analogue haze.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.
Side B
00:25:19 Aglaia – Mediumship
Celestial altitudes open in peaceful hypnotic currents. Aglaia – Mediumship. Processed acoustic instruments and subtle electronics weave a mysterious mandala. Consciousness flies through boundless spaces, receiving rather than transmitting, as sponges, anemones and particle clouds dominate the descent.
00:41:32 Walt Shaw – The secret life of stones
Stones keep their secret life among constructed percussion. Walt Shaw – The secret life of stones. Pebbles roll inside bowls and cans. Gongs, springs, saw blades, glass and metal plates vibrate under contact microphones. Accidents become rich textures, blood wiped away, the unexpected harnessed into drones and decay.
00:45:33 Cries from the LTN – Caggy’s Jam
Silent figures whisper through Caggy’s jam. Cries from the LTN – Caggy’s Jam. Hidden mysteries unravel in the compositions that shadow us, each narrative rising from the Quiet Figures still gathering.

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 281. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
A quiet, luminous ambient journey through fog, silence, emergence, and dual light.
Side A drifts from museum fog and deep indigo silence into larval longing, early string tones, perpetual candle mornings, and distant postcard transmissions. Side B opens across bonnie banks and underwater echolocation into temple soundscapes, interplanetary stillness, dismal radiance, and mirrored dual forms.
Overall mood: Contemplative, tender, and gently expansive — full of soft emergence, reflective depth, and quiet shared presence. Perfect for deep listening, early mornings, or peaceful solitude.

The tape unspools its visions.
Fog drifts in thick luminous layers across open museum halls. Simon Cacheux – Fog. Field recordings and synthesized tones rise with shakuhachi breath and cymbal resonance. The entire landscape holds the quiet presence of an event already unfolding, the air filled with contemplative motion.
Silence expands through deep indigo space. Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken & Henrik Meierkord – Silence In The Dark. Cello tones stretch into long translucent ribbons while spoken words dissolve into the surrounding drones. Texture and language move together in measured waves, the whole field opening into reflective presence.
Larval forms glow in soft emerging light. Florigenix – larval longing. Ambient and experimental tones sculpt the open spaces between notes into a melodic tapestry. Shared sonic connections rise in serene sequential layers, each one expanding the quiet field of reflection.
A single tone unfolds across violin and viola strings. Aki Yli-Salomäki & Kreeta-Julia Heikkilä – Liian varhain. Subtle synthesizer textures rise around the layered strings in slow structures. Resonance and timbre move in quiet dialogue, the entire space holding acoustic closeness and gentle emergence.
Perpetual mornings open in soft candle-coloured light. Spirituals – Perpetual Mornings. Pedal steel and acoustic guitars drift with analog and virtual synths, vibraphone, cymbals, percussion, voice memos and field recordings. Each spontaneous composition rises as a glowing candle through the open air.
A postcard arrives carrying distant guitar tones and field-recorded air. Oberlin – Postcard #4. A Fernandes Telecaster voice moves through open landscape sounds recorded in May light, the whole surface expanding in quiet transmission.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

Echolocation pulses move through dense underwater corridors. Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster – Echolocation. Sonic signals expand in mapping waves, each one revealing new luminous territories of shared presence.
A temple forms in dark sound. boycalledcrow – temple. Heavier beats and dub-inflected soundscapes rise around alien phenomena and personal memory. The entire space opens in immersive motion through grief-shaped and expansive fields.
Interplanetary time stretches across sparse electronic textures. TheAdelaidean – Interplanetary Time (featuring Lauren Jones). E-bow drones and heavily processed ambient recordings carry a passive traveller through prolonged motion. Voices whisper at the edge of consciousness while fractured melodies echo from distant harmonic turns, the whole journey unfolding in layered stillness.
Dismal radiance pours through liminal corridors of flowing memory. Philippe Blache – Through The Dismal Radiance. Meandering immersive textures and high emotional tones open into imaginary territories. The entire headspace expands in careful melancholic repetition and profound sonic depth.
Dual forms rise in mirrored light. Irène Blanc – Dual. Parallel tones move together across open space, each layer expanding the shared field in dual motion.
The visions complete their circle.

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.

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?

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 275. 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 ambient journey mixing cosmic library mystery, long-form meditation, playful ease, and quiet spectral presence.
Side A moves from Italian mysteries and returning echoes into modular uncertainty, wind-like drones, playtime charm, and challenging growth. Side B shifts through a quick French exit, Pacific waltzing, river-like storytelling, exclusive ghosts, piano stillness, and ends in an empty town.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and gently shifting — balancing deep immersion with lighter, more playful moments. Perfect for focused listening, late evenings, or quiet solitude.
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 1,103 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 the cosmic pulsations of “I misteri del mondo” (The Mysteries of the World) by Giuliano Sorgini — another gem unearthed by the excellent Four Flies Records.
Then legendary Japanese ambient artist Rhucle reinterprets Raúl Cantizano & David Cordero’s “Algo a lo que regresar” (Something to Come Back To) from the remix album Aunque llegue la mañana · Refracted (Even If Morning Comes). Eleven artists appear on the record, including zakè, anthéne, Wil Bolton, Ian Hawgood and more. It’s out on David Cordero’s Noray Records.
Next, UK modular synthesist and guitarist Analogue Path with “Uncertain-A” from his name-your-price album Early Days.
This is followed by the longest piece on the episode — a 14-minute meditation from Italian electro-acoustic sound sculptor Gino Fioravanti (Aglaia). The heavily echoed “Anemoi” comes from the recent name-your-price release Altitudes on Projekt Records.
After that we head to Seattle for the duo Guest Bartender Deborah Toyota and the track “Playtime” from their album Music for Babies, out on Mystery Circles.
Closing Side A is Baden-Baden’s free-improvisational drone artist stefan schmidt with the challenging ten-minute “arbrehl” from his latest album tharva gev.
But first, to set the vibe: Giuliano Sorgini with “I misteri del mondo”.
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
I hope you survived that one. Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear my favourite Ramsgate-based artist, Nick Bonell (Lone Bison), with the waltzing “Be More Pacific” from his latest Castles in Space release Longshore Drifting.
Next we change the pace with Salt Lake City singer-songwriter Josaleigh Pollett and “Like a River” from her latest album If I Let It Quiet, available on random-colour double vinyl from Lavender Vinyl and also on Audio Antihero.
Then we find ourselves in Lincolnshire — famous for Sir Isaac Newton and for gribbles. The latter genius has just started releasing under his real name, Graham Thorpe, and this is an exclusive first listen: “Ghosts”, from the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures (digital release 26 September, available for pre-order now on my Trevlad Bandcamp page).
Near the end we’re joined by one of the most prolific ambient artists around, David Cordero, together with Slovenia-based Japanese artist Aiko Takahashi, for the beautiful piano piece “Montsec” from the album Night’s End on Home Normal.
Finally, as it was in the beginning, we return to Italy with Alessio Bertuzzi (Far Away Nebraska) and some magical ambient noodlings in “Empty as this town” from the album Halfway from nowhere, the latest release on Kordel Records (a sub-label of Jogging House’s Seil Records).
But first, Third Kind boss Nicholas Langley and long-time collaborator Stephen Cousins (Fisty Kendal) with the one-minute-thirty-six-second closing piece from their album Now What? titled “French Exit”.

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 274. 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 textured, slightly nocturnal ambient journey through quiet intensity, natural shifts, and digital calm.
Side A moves from prowling glass and sea changes into moonlight grass, barrel flowers, reduced beats, and deep geological time. Side B drifts through wormeries, rushing ascent, liquid amber circles, grid edges, digital meditation, and ends on an old road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and gently dynamic — blending organic warmth with subtle tension and quiet modern stillness. Perfect for late-evening listening, deep focus, 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 1,101 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 the sprawling and inventive side-project of Suncastle’s George Evans and Kristofer Thomas aka Paris Texas who together call themselves Glass Roots. Yes it’s an older release from 2020 but as it’s on Triplicate records it means that it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp. Which suits my unimployed world. Anyway the track is a stomping Idm piece titled “Panther Loud” from the album “The Idiot”. Go grab it for as little as you can.
Then a dose of slapped bass in a wonderful track titled “Sea Change” by friend of the shows Emily Sobool, aka Socool who has teamed up with Paul Griffin and released a collection of tunes under the name “Dreams & Riddles”
Next, another team up with Elizabeth Joan Kelly aka Orca and David Rodriguez aka Attack! with a highly original piece titled “Grass In The Moonlight” which is a great name so I think I’ll title this episode after it. It’s from a release out on the Mortality Tables label called, yes “Grass In The Moonlight”.
This will be followed by, would you believe it?, another duo in the form of Ali O’May and Frazer Brown as Dohnavùr and a captivating synth adventure titled “Flowers In The Barrel” from their latest release “We Owe Each Other Everything” which you can get on vinyl from that Castles In Space that’s in everyones library.
After that, not a another duo, o no, a Leeds based act of unknown numbers. Active between 1993-1994 called Adel Music Club. You’ll be treated to some sweet drum breaks and bongos or highly tuned congas in the track titled “Break Beats Nothing” from the release called “Golden Acres” out on the channel supporting FRBH Recordings.
Closing Side A is of course another duo. A name all of you know and are probably a bit tired of after this release. It is of course Boards of Canada with the wonderfully wobbly track “Deep Time” from their latest gem “Inferno”. That’s on vinyl in my collection and is available through Warp Records.
But first, to set the vibe: Glass Roots and Panther Loud.
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 a founder of Triplicate Records, Mr. Michael Southard aka Time Rival and an exclusive, I dare say, from his Bandcamp subscription library titled “Rush Up” from the album “stay safe out there“ which has an official release on the 2nd of October.
Then, speaking of Triplicate Records and their amazing back catalogue I’m playing Belial Pelegrim and an enchanting track titled “Circle of Liquid Ambers”. from the 2020 album “Torus”.
Next. No episode of TVCL would be complete without a dose of modular tweakings. We head to another channel supporting label Paris based Hylé Tapes and the artist Aurel Val with the track “Grid’s End” from the album “Mods-1”. Go grab one of the 7 remaining cassettes on Hylé Tapes.
Near the end we travel to Genoa, Italy with a downtempo summer vibe piece by artist Brioskj titled “Digital Meditation” from the EP The Persuaders! And that’s another Name Your Price release from Finlands finest label: Kahvi Collective.
And finally, a real exclusive track from a true friend of the show. A gentleman fond of words and espicially dialects. Mr. Graham Thorpe who of course is better know as gribbles at least for now. Keep an eye out for upcoming stuff in his own name. Anyway I’m playing a Lemon Jelly flavoured track titled “Owd Roa (Part)” from an upcoming release titled “Agatewards” dropping on boutique label Yellowbelly Records on the 4th of September. Keep an eye out for that.
But first, another exclusive, that makes three for this episode! That deserves a subscription from someone out there does it not?
Anyway, this is an amazing piece of audio art by Imogen Haley Baker who calls herself Enofa, and a rather haunted track titled “The Wormery” from an album called “Small Modernist House in Woodland Setting” which was sent to me by the wonderful Dan Seville, who runs the equally wonderful Subexotic Records. That will be released on double LP black vinyl from the 14th of August. According to the blurb for this release, Imogen made close to a hundred different pieces of music. A lot of htem, she says, will probably stay on her hard drive for decades. Well if you’re listening Imogen, yoou could enter one in for my quiet figures compilation.
Anyway
Enjoy…

Classic BoC deep-time haze with warped nostalgia and geological patience. Hypnotic and timeless.

Earthy, composting ambient with slow organic breakdown and quiet soil life. Grounded and curious.
00:32:17 Time Rival – Rush Up

Warm, circular ambient with molten amber flow and elegant, looping beauty. Rich and immersive.

Precise, terminal ambient reaching the edge of structured space. Clean and contemplative.
00:41:04 Brioskj – Digital Meditation
Quiet, screen-soft ambient designed for digital stillness and soft focus. Calm and modern.
00:45:25 gribbles – Owd Roa (Part)

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.

There’s still time to submit — the window closes 24 September.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 263. 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 varied, atmospheric ambient journey blending mystical folklore, northern chill, and intimate warmth.
Side A moves from relaxing breaks and cliff-hanging tension into union commentary and mosaic beauty. Side B drifts through coastal calm, wizardly myths, hyperborean ice, sinister clouds, sunny winds, and communal glass.
Overall mood: Contemplative, mystical, and gently dynamic with a mix of dark mystery and hopeful warmth. Perfect for deep listening, nature connection, or late-night immersion.
As of now I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. as I’ve put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 263 episodes as well as the 820 plus other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for 3 quid anymore. It used to be a coffee.
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 from the 24 buildings in the veil. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by the collaboration of Analogue Path & channel friend Akira Film Script with the track “Lamkin” from volume two of the fantastic compilation series “The Silent Harvest” which you should really add to your collection if you haven’t already. They’re out on the Manchester based label FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS.
Then an artist that contacted me recently, fellow Irishman, Kilkenny based, Sean Grimes who goes bye the alias “NQUAUS” with the shortest track of the episode with the longest title “Rushe Cuts- NEW START- May 26- Vol. 1 – 15 – v.1.2 -Cliff Hanger” from the self released EP “Rushe Cuts vol.1 (Teaser)”.
After that Gordon Chapman-Fox an artist who is no stranger to the channel. A man with his noggin in the right place. “Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan” with the soaring track “Part of the Union” from the album “People & Industry Special Edition” with 4 bonus tracks from the 2021 original album, and you can grab that from the Castles In Space label.
This is followed by the Auckland, New Zealand artist Jim Marjoram and another piece from “The Silent Harvest Volume Two” FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS release the dark track is called “Lass of Lochroyan”.
Finishing off the first half is Berlin-based French musician arc rae and the stunning track “Mosaic” from the album “Bow and Arrow” and that’s out on long time channel supporter Las Vegas based Mystery Circles.
But first, to set the vibe is a collaboration I played on the last episode by Third Kind Records label curator Nicholas Langley together with university buddy Stephen Cousins. They are collectively known as Hz & Fisty Kendal here with the track “Relaxing Break” from the album “Now What?”
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 to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
Starting us off is Liverpool based artist Borchardt with the bubbling piece titled “Hanko” from the self titled, self released album and also on the outstanding periodical magazine from Wirrals finest Moolakii Club Audio Interface.

You can grab the album from Bluetechs Bandcamp page, also Evans own label Behind The Sky on vinyl and Ian Boddy curated DiN Records for your CD version.
Then I’ve gone back to 2017 and a track from channel friend Belial Pelegrim titled “Followed by a Sinister Cloud” from the compilation release “Do You” from the, now defunct, Mangled Music Co., who were an affiliate of Triplicate Records.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of the 2014 track “Sun wind” by Protuberance from an album I’ve also played from in the previous episode “Recollections” go and grab a name your price version on the Bulgarian Mahorka label.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 262. 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 mystical, quirky, and emotionally varied ambient journey through alchemy, jungles, societal decay, and warrior cries.
Side A moves from occult geometry and evening bonsoirs into fragile qualia, jungle scans, and solipsistic isolation. Side B shifts through tungsten pillows, multiple ways, lonely days, crying warriors, and fried naptime whimsy.
Overall mood: Atmospheric, contemplative, and eccentric with a mix of dark mystery, gentle warmth, and playful chaos. Perfect for late-night immersion, reflective listening, or adventurous evenings.
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 to give the “virtual cassette” title a meaning. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 262 episodes plus the 826 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.
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 from the 24 buildings in the veil. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
This episode of The Virtual Cassette Library is inspired by the track “Naptime” by an artist with the fantastic name “Guest Bartender Deborah Toyota” from the album “Music for Babies” which is out on the channel sponsoring Mystery Circles label.
Also on this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Paris, France based modular artist Aurel Val in the rather housey track “Bonsoir” from the latest release on Hylé Tapes titled Mods-1.
Then I’ve dived into the crates a bit with a 2020 track by Glasgow based Fragile X and the track “Qualia” from a fantastic Trip FM compilation called “Red Shift”. It also appears on the Fragile X album Hive.
After that another Hylé Tapes release this time from the 2024 album Biodiverse by Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster. I’ve chosen the rather fun 9 minute track “Jungle Scan”.
Ending the A side with some braindance techno is Craig Murphy aka Solipsism and the track “Sierra Oscar Kilo” from the latest release on the Mighty Force label.
Starting off Side B is Buffalo, New York based Matt Donatelli aka SURVEY CHANNEL with an older track originally from 2020 the lovely wonky “Tungsten Pillow” from the 2025 Remastered album Along the Wind Spear.

We continue with another piece from this great album, the super chilled beat driven Protuberance track “Crying Warrior”.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of the episode inspired piece “Naptime” by Seattle, Washington based duo Julia Shapiro and Samur Khouja who call themselves Guest Bartender Deborah Toyota.
Finishing us off is the rather funky “Permafried” by another duo in the form of Hz & Fisty Kendal who are Nicholas Langley and Stephen Cousins. this is from the album Now What? which is out on Langley curated label Third Kind Records.
But first, to set the vibe is a friend of the show from Bristol, UK, James McKeown aka Hawksmoor with a Teenage Engineering medieval folksy new creation from the album “Yclept Thorn” this is the track “Trismosin”.

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.

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.
Naples based group Psyché grab our hips with “Cumbia Mahàre” from their debut Four Flies Records, self titled, 2023 release.
Then a trio that have infected me over the past few years, Khruangbin, here joined by the vocal stylings of Leon Bridges in the track “Chocolate Hills” from their 2022 EP Texas Moon.
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.

Welcome to episode 212 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Tower of Butterflies” by Innis Chonnel & Loris S. Sarid from the album “Looking For Mount Sylvan” which dropped on the 10th of March via The 12th Isle label.
