Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 345

Another reel of the Virtual Cassette Library begins. Twelve tracks, two sides. A virtual cassette that turns itself at the halfway mark, the oxide catching just long enough to mark the seam before the second side continues.
These are not playlists. Each episode is structured as a pair of continuous sets: six tracks on each side, mixed and stitched so the joins sit almost inside the grain. The sequence is the form.
If you make music, run a label, or hold a private archive of material that has not yet found a place, send links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. Every submission is heard.
The episodes remain free for the first week. After that they move into the Mixcloud subscriber archive. Subscribers also receive Veil Frequencies, the ongoing series of three-hour transmissions—extended traversals rather than selections, moving through a curtain of sound that occasionally seems to register the listener in return.
Mind the flip.
Blue skies over golden acres, then landscapes that prefer to stay unfinished.
Side A keeps the acres already golden and the skies rather pleased about it, softens an ambient Ibiza so the trickster is slightly surprised, lets the water belong to the sky and walk itself home, remixes a shadow planet by Sam Prekop so the shadows grow longer, celebrates the dark with bats already in formation and bringing a small gift, and keeps the brook underwater and quite content while the library reads from the bottom shelf. Side B places a solaris in ethereal space that is already making room, reflects eyes that are mirrors signalling back, waters the plants with magnetic fields that are quite domestic about the dishes, turns decay into light that is still arriving, mid-turns an emu while the silence is amused, and leaves the landscapes unfinished and happier for the postponement.
Overall mood: Amused, and quietly luminous — full of pleased skies, domestic fields, and landscapes that prefer to stay open. Perfect for dusk listening, soft islands, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: blue skies over golden acres, an ambient Ibiza, water that belongs to the sky, a shadow planet remixed by Sam Prekop, bats celebrating the dark, a brook that is underwater and quite content.

A sunset on Venus that trusts the guide, then virga that falls and then thinks better of it.
Side A trusts the guide so the glide is already under way and Venus looks rather pleased, reaches the destination and then politely asks to rewind the last bit, practises the art of being young with the exclusive already warm, lets the echo accept its past with the signature already signed, finds the sprite and the bride both slightly surprised to be in the same room, and accounts for someone who was there in New South Wales. Side B thickens a Finnish mist until it becomes itself, terraces the terrace so thoroughly the cat is already elegant about it, brings the wind from the sea with the sea already agreeing, keeps the world still loved on a kind remaster, cares totally with the ears already filed on the tenth, and lets the virga fall so the third can be the one that stays.
Overall mood: Elegant, and quietly accepted — full of trusted guides, signed acceptances, and thirds that decide to stay. Perfect for dusk listening, open terraces, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 339

Hello there, listeners. It’s me. Trevor.
You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve tracks. Two sides. A little plastic ghost that flips itself at the halfway mark, like a polite pancake.
If you make music, or you run a label, or you simply own a shed full of strange noises and would like them filed somewhere warm, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
The shows stay free for the first week. After that they slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers. Subscribers also receive the expanding series of three-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies, which is less a mixtape and more a long walk through a curtain that may be sentient.
Now. Each of these episodes is a two-part outing, just like the classic cassette. Unlike mixtapes or playlists, these two sides are curated as proper DJ sets, six tracks segued into one continuous mix, stitched together so carefully you can barely see the thread.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
A whistle mapped into silence, then a spring that prefers to vanish quietly.
Side A draws the map so the silence can answer, lets the music of the spheres burn bright and kind, rests the tongue in cold shadows under a solar scream, warms a tiny stone in a brief perfect drift, holds quiet music from Toronto in the lake, and draws a crystal so the page already shines. Side B cooks a beacon for a kind visitation, lengthens an afternoon in warm fur, grows an organic vibe in the factory that is already alive, shares a symbiosis in a lost city already found, opens a Shangri-La reverie for the valley, and lets the spring arrive so the vanishing can stay soft.
Overall mood: Luminous, and quietly kind — full of answering silences, shared rooms, and springs that know how to leave. Perfect for dusk listening, soft cities, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: a whistle mapped into silence, a bright burn from the music of the spheres, a tongue resting in cold shadows under a solar scream, a tiny stone drifting, quiet music from Toronto, a crystal drawn rather than cut.

A moon and her sisters in the retort, then a hop that is already well.
Side A keeps the moons already in the flask while the gold forms, holds home at a gentle distance with something greater already walking beside you, lets everything shine from within with the glow still in the grain, sighs a heart across the galaxy while despair and hope share the EP, leaves the plea soft after the kilometre is walked, and warms an egg in the suburbs with the hedge already quiet. Side B takes one small step with the boot already on the surface, opens the code in the swirl so it can read itself, populates a soft suburb with eleven marble dogs, lets the river know the way so you may follow, leaves a lost city still waiting in the hidden kingdoms, and lands the hop already well with the mezze on the table.
Overall mood: Luminous, and quietly kind — full of warm shells, open ciphers, and tables already set. Perfect for dusk listening, soft suburbs, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A

An adventure for the one who must be obeyed, then a sky watched in company.
Side A keeps Haggard’s flame warm in the sequence, reaches the pole with the radio still crackling from the ice, folds the shroud so the outline remains kind, pours a small aperitif before the meal, finds the empire still in the foundations under the roads, and leaves temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes on the table for you to look. Side B keeps the past still sitting in the chair, grazes elk on a coastal flat with the window open, shares a long look from the mezze table, projects a holographic father already solid and familiar, lets the hearts decide on forever with the pulse steady, and watches the weight of the night sky together while the desert holds both of you.
Overall mood: Mythic, and quietly shared — full of open windows, warm maps, and skies that prefer company. Perfect for dusk listening, coastal flats, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: an adventure for the one who must be obeyed, an admiral at the pole, a shroud folded in an elegy, an aperitif for the young, an empire still in the foundations, a temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes.

Crystals from an inner world, then business that prefers the porch.
Side A lets the visitor already inside sing through the facets, keeps a Norfolk village on the shingle with the sea still close enough to hear, sits a denizen at the last stop of the line, pots anise and gamma in a grass-roots zen, lets the houseplant keep its own water on the windowsill, and clears a shelf for a zen small enough to fit. Side B softens the second dawn from the nights, rules a summer by herbs with the king still on the sill, drifts slowly for the people who keep the planes flying, holds an angle sharp in the sprawl, files only days and memories with the dialect still in the grain, and keeps the appointment on a porch where the piano is already in the wood.
Overall mood: Domestic, and quietly luminous — full of windowsills, last stops, and porches that have already sat down. Perfect for dusk listening, village stations, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 334

Hello there, listeners. It’s me. Trevor.
You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve tracks. Two sides. A little plastic ghost that flips itself at the halfway mark, like a polite pancake.
If you make music, or you run a label, or you simply own a shed full of strange noises and would like them filed somewhere warm, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise. I read them with both eyes and, on special occasions, a third one.
The shows stay free for the first week, wandering about with their shoelaces undone. After that they 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 three-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies, which is less a mixtape and more a long walk through a curtain that may be sentient.
Now. Each of these episodes is a two-part outing, just like the classic cassette. Unlike mixtapes or playlists, these two sides are curated as proper DJ sets, six tracks segued into one continuous mix, stitched together so carefully you can barely see the thread.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
A voice returning after the cold months, then fortunes drifting offshore.
Side A stitches the voice back into the static once the winter has stepped aside, marks a path home through ruins on a planet whose stars are crashing, keeps the balance beyond words, dreams the future into the present on a planet of seers, ties the bionic score against the snowsuit and is happy about it, and walks the dream-road to a city that lives only in sleep. Side B lets the corridors forget the year while still holding the echo, keeps the smallest particle that binds a universe, holds the question of consciousness with arms still raised, draws one line from an unknown source enough to hold the page, lets animals arrive politely from the sky, and drops the coins still turning into water already waiting.
Overall mood: Mythic, and quietly open — full of detuned lullabies, unfinished questions, and roads that still accept entries. Perfect for dusk listening, silent rooms, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: a voice returning after the cold months, a path home through ruins, balance beyond words, dreams on a planet of seers, a bionic man in a snowsuit, a road to a city that lives in dreams.

A sundial turned inward, then a boat named in two languages.
Side A writes its hours in a Canadian winter while the light inside learns to keep its own, holds the shape of callers who have already left, leaves a glimmer on for the night, lets the ocean breathe along the path, builds architecture that knows its own duration and still stands, and rearranges the light so it remains in the living room. Side B follows the grey sea whose fog already knows the way, crosses a forest at funk speed in under a minute, walks an old earthwork in a hidden kingdom still open for entries, listens to an Estonian runway listening back, switches on the first light of a galactic passenger, and names the boat once on each side of the hull.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly seasonal, and quietly luminous — full of little lights left on, temporary buildings, and seas that already know the way. Perfect for dusk listening, houses with a curse, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: a sundial turned inward, callers who have already left the hall, a glimmer left on overnight, an ocean breathing along a path, architecture that knows it is temporary, light pulled gently into a living room.

A plant leaning toward the window, then a landscape content to stay unfinished at number twenty-two.
Side A grows toward the light the title already promised, smokes a soft suburb with curtains half-drawn, fits the eclipse into two letters and a hyphen, files a signal under cool, measures an English furlong at Clay Pipe speed, and lights a candle that has decided to chase the high white. Side B returns light across the hedges with the gate on the latch, spends a lifetime at steady altitude with the butty packed, files wonders under experiment while the tableau dries next door, slows the first stage of sleep on purpose, lets gravity keep its end of the bargain, and leaves the unfinished landscape open at the edge for the next field.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly domestic, and quietly measured — full of half-drawn curtains, steady horizons, and rooms left for the next field. Perfect for dusk listening, fields walked at tape speed, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: a plant leaning toward the window, a suburb soft enough to smoke, two letters from an eclipse, a signal filed under cool, an English measure of distance, candles lit for a chase among the high white.

A pearl filed under ocean, then a periphery that still has a centre.
Side A keeps the grit and the glow in the same shell, lets the resonant field keep answering after the question has sat down, finds time for a blue event on the fast lane, sets an extra place for a postcard from the future, prefers the slow lane for recovery, and measures restraint in sixty-four fluxes content to hold still. Side B files the spirit of gravity with the soil, deepens into the moment before the moment, drifts with Berlin-school manners since the late seventies, walks a quiet figure down to the reservoir, counts time by the stars, and holds the rim so the centre can rest.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly cosmic, and quietly patient — full of unlatched doors, extra places, and clocks the stars prefer. Perfect for dusk listening, fields still ringing, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Mood mist: a pearl filed under ocean, a field that keeps ringing after you leave, a blue event on the fast lane, a postcard from the future introducing itself, a recovery that prefers the slow lane, restraint measured in sixty-four fluxes.

A stone cut in a century that has already left, then a MicroKorg noticing the room has changed.
Side A polishes a gemstone that arrived already old, keeps the distant sea far enough that you can hear it and stay dry, leaves an extra chair for two girls and the half that stayed, counts masts the harbour fog is still deciding to show, gathers every last drop, and opens a portal onto a room you have already been in. Side B lets the moon wobble a little more than it meant to show, hums rare earths through a circuit board in a language older than the plug, listens as a Connecticut house stretches fridge and rain into a room you can stand in, counts ninety minutes of air still in the lungs, files a ghost that already knew the address, and lets a stolen memory agree the room has changed.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly haunted, and quietly domestic — full of polite distances, home-shelf murmurs, and water that remains generous with the air. Perfect for dusk listening, houses that pay attention, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Mood mist: a stone cut in a century that has already left, a sea kept at a polite distance, two girls and the half that stayed, masts drawn in fog, a drop counted to the end, a portal that remembers you first.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 311

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.
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.
Right then, my glittering cassette moths…
It’s time I had a quiet word with the universe about this Virtual Cassette Library lark of mine. Lately it’s been drifting off like a helium balloon made of old mixtape innards, floating away from the original bonfire of my intentions. I need to yank it back by its magnetic tape tail before it disappears into a cloud of forgotten B-sides.
I’ve just been bathing in the first episode of The Signal by Wall of Ambient — Harry Towell and James Osland swimming through the ambient oceans like two elegant seahorses in velvet capes. Go and drink it in on Substack. And while you’re there, follow me like a loyal moth to my flickering neon sign.
Anyway, Harry said something that pinged my third eye: concept is the beating heart of an album. And I suddenly realised that even though I pluck these tracks from their original conceptual wombs, my shows are actually stitched together with their own secret concepts. Lately I’ve been chattering between tracks like a magpie on a telephone wire and the concept has been leaking out like cheese from a toasted sandwich.
So what’s the concept, you ask, while adjusting your imaginary pipe?
Well, I’ve spent my entire working life lurking on and around stages like a quiet caretaker with glitter under his nails. I see each episode as a colossal rotating stage — a great mechanical blooming lotus. The audience only ever glimpses 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 like a peacock into fog, and the next act glides in. The stage spins at whatever speed the track demands — slow and syrupy or frantic and glittering.
I still want to whisper the names of the artists, the albums and the labels, so I’ll do that before each set — or “side,” as we cassette alchemists call them. Six little incantations per side, plus a general mist of what mood to expect.
Now… shall we let the stage begin to turn?
So episode 311 is a weathered, slightly spectral ambient journey through closing dive bars, overlapping canopies, and monuments that have already begun to kneel.
Overall mood: Contemplative, analog, and quietly dilapidated — full of forgotten light, phase transitions, and sockets still whispering in the dark. Perfect for late listening, empty stages, or sitting with the ivy while it finishes the sentence.

Side A lets shadows clock off at the edge of the universe, waves from a missed railway cutting, shares a stereo canopy, opens a December jar six months late, weathers the ivy through human architecture, and climbs dilapidated monuments only to accept itself.
00:05:30 Kh3rtis – As Shadows Fall Away
https://kh3rtis.bandcamp.com/track/as-shadows-fall-away
A dive bar at the edge of the universe closing its curtains. Shadows clocking off. You are left holding the light they forgot to take.
00:10:28 Sunshine Playroom / Prozapine – The Ultimate
A MicroKorg dressed as 1974 television, waving from a railway cutting that only exists when you miss it.
00:12:06 Chihei Hatakeyama & Jupi/ter – Canopy
https://ambientologist.bandcamp.com/track/canopy
Two canopies overlapping until the stereo field forgets which tree belongs to which country. Peace wearing someone else’s coat.
00:19:04 Matt Lowery – 12-13-24
https://mattlowery.bandcamp.com/track/12-13-24
The thirteenth of December kept in a jar and opened six months later. Modular dust that still remembers the day it was captured.
00:20:20 The Microgram – Weathered
https://kaisekidigital.bandcamp.com/track/weathered
Human architecture kneeling so the ivy can finish the sentence. A facility learning how to weather.
00:24:05 Blank Embrace – Dilapidated Monuments
https://kaisekidigital.bandcamp.com/track/dilapidated-monuments
Dilapidated monuments on a tundra that ends in a mountain you climb only to accept yourself. The stage turns very slowly here.

Side B argues in black and white until a drop becomes a drum, leaves the singers behind in Midas plumbing, hands in exam music before the piece ends, leaks a green chorus through melted glass, takes on new Beagle waters, and coils after midnight on a Yamaha four-track.
00:33:21 Amotken – Gota
https://mahorka.bandcamp.com/track/gota
Black and white arguing inside a twenty-year-old Mexican machine. A drop of water deciding it is also a drum.
00:37:39 El Michels Affair – Anticipate (Instrumental)
https://elmichelsaffair.bandcamp.com/track/anticipate-instrumental
The singers have left the building. What remains is the Midas plumbing — brass, choir-shaped air, a saxophone ghost clocking in for overtime.
00:40:31 The Sound Catelouge – Phase Transitions
https://theastralrealms.bandcamp.com/track/phase-transitions
Exam music found inside a textbook sleeve. Phase transitions for students who must hand in their papers before the piece ends.
00:42:50 Phil Geraldi – Chorus in Green
https://chakrawhip.bandcamp.com/track/chorus-in-green
Alien country radio leaking through melted glass. A chorus in green that never quite reaches the hook.
00:45:35 Tim Stebbing – New Waters
https://cyclicaldreams.bandcamp.com/track/new-waters
HMS Beagle still taking on new water in 2026. Sequencers collecting specimens the Atlantic has not finished naming.
00:52:28 DOMOTIC – Serpenting
https://domotic.bandcamp.com/track/serpenting
*A Yamaha four-track recorded after midnight, coiling like fur that learned to hiss. Vintage sockets whispering to each other in the dark.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 310

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 310. 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 humid, analog journey through Chicago weather, dub earth, and a looking-glass that still grows.
Side A drifts through Bitchin Bajas organ-tape zones, Album Leaf story frames, Laswell’s lowered Marley devotion, Young Gun silver-fox chrome, Eels in a small room of memory, and Quiet Village pool-light haze. Side B drops into Coki’s ruff lovin’ pressure, FSOL mango-tree humidity, Röyksopp’s Late Night bounce, Tellier’s tender river, a brief Kendall Miles afterglow, and ends at Jefferson Airplane’s white rabbit.
Overall mood: Warm, cinematic, and slightly psychedelic — full of analog silk, sub-bass weather, and neon that refuses to cool. Perfect for late drives, pool-side dusk, or sitting with the credits while the mushroom keeps growing.
This is episode 310 which makes it a best of show. Where I’ve chosen 12 favourites from over the years.
The best of shows remain free but everything else slips quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers after 7 days. Subscribers currently have 1,135 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 308

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 between-worlds ambient journey through vanished lanes, quiet trees, and maps that keep leaving the paper.
Side A walks you home along a Lincolnshire lane that no longer exists, docks in a corridor of light, holds its breath beneath Yiddish trees, answers every name water has ever been given, climbs an Atlas ascent through drowned architecture, and posts a wet summer postcard from Koblenz. Side B decides the right thing is just to leave, sits at a hummingbird campfire, hums the normal order of things after midnight, names an uncatalogued creature, paints the moon with earthshine, and ends on an atlas of shifting clouds.
Overall mood: Melancholic, luminous, and quietly migratory — full of Passed Oceans, analog weight, and weather with no name in the rear-view. Perfect for late listening, leaving rooms gently, or sitting still while the tide rearranges the map.
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.

https://ancientastronaut.bandcamp.com/track/between-worlds
Aka Eric Allietta. From the album “Inner Worlds”.

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 cliffside, slightly occult ambient journey through spirit bridges, distant evenings, and questions that keep answering themselves.
Side A opens among Provo cliffdwellers and castle waters, then dreams through 808 notebook sequences, sits with Scottish-Swedish darkness, tunes the senses to E.S.P., and holds surface tension across Passed Oceans. Side B begins a mysterious Mechanicus chapter, places the world at your feet for Phantom’s centenary, spices the reel with French library flute and Leipzig afrobeat, flashes a fourteen-second miniature, and ends decaying underwater — however oceanic of you.
Overall mood: Contemplative, faintly eerie, and quietly playful — full of exclusive darkness, compilation water, and short surprises after the flip. Perfect for late listening, sitting with the unexplained, or letting the tape keep asking while the ocean answers.
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.

00:02:21 spaceseer – Cliffdwellers
I start with an apology to the artist EBlo who in the last episode I mixed up with an artist of the same name. EBlo is in fact based in Malmö, Sweden and not the US. Also a shout out to the wonderful aeon who not only is one of my only subscribers but also left a comment on a show a while back and asked me to do an episode of his amazing CAMP radio monthly series Fragments. Opening this episode with a piece from the new compilation album Gemstones VII out on Cyclical Dreams that Record label focused on Berlin School, Ambient, Soundscape, Space Music, Drone, and electronic music. Provo, Utah based spaceseerer who’s described themselves as doom-synth and dark ambient.

Synths, drones and cello. Spoken passages sit inside the music. Darkness as a state to sit with.

The penultimate track of side A and an aboloute legend of the synth world. From the self released album TeleKinesis The trilogy that began with ExoGenesis and continued with ProtoSynthesis now concludes with TeleKinesis: a journey through the mind and the senses; through consciousness and altered states.
00:24:11 Trees Can Talk – Surface Tension
The final track of side A and the longest piece on the episode at 7:51. From that must have new Passed Recording compilation Passed Oceans. Classical instruments, punk years, electronica as therapy. Half of sales to Doctors Without Borders.
After that the cassette reaches its midpoint and flips.

00:31:25 Adeptus Mechanicus – A new mysterious Beginning
We open with annother long track of the episode at 7:42 from two compilation albums recently released. First the whopping 53 track name your price album Summoning 4 out on Hull, UK based Netlabel for sounds of horror, the occult and the unexplained “Dittany of Crete” and also on channel supporting Argentinian label Cyclical Dreams stunning Gemstones VII.

Miniature flashes. Photographs in the download.
00:48:35 Stewart Keller – How Oceanic Of You

Decaying underwater world. CorrodedParadox artwork.

Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A tender, slightly grieving ambient journey through vanished names, still ponds, and conversations that continue after the person is gone.
Side A opens in collage-and-destroy rooms, then yearns through silent ways, burning homes written after a passing, an orange offered from a train window, stars over a city pond, and a mourning routine kept warm by analogue hands. Side B arrives with supermassive wasps and Neptune’s thirst, then integrates toward stillness, sits dans le noir, still talks about you in Padova cassette light, and ends in blue laundry-line wind.
Overall mood: Contemplative, intimate, and quietly elegiac — full of residual warmth, small awakenings, and light that keeps talking after the leaf has not yet fallen. Perfect for dusk listening, remembrance, or sitting still with what remains.
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.

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 textured, slightly restless ambient and experimental journey through protected light, subway chaos, and quiet figures still gathering.
Side A opens in remixed German-Czech-Spanish frequencies and Bristol trio gravity, then moves through Chester grandmother light, Berlin bouncing patterns, whimsical DNA cheesecake, and limbs of sticks under Machen’s bridge. Side B settles into Salt LX thoughts carried by wind, absolute chaos circuits, dark-ambient lounge noise, simple guitar drones that wait for yes, submerged porcelain systems, and a Quiet Figures remix that percolates the filter open.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly dark, and richly layered — full of analogue edges, exclusive whispers, and slow openings. Perfect for late listening, deep immersion, or sitting with what keeps moving while the figures remain.
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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 296
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-296/

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 cosmic, slightly archival ambient journey through uncharted quadrants, greenhouse arks, and nine worlds below.
Side A drifts from exclusive galactic isolation and catalystic dreaming into a lumbering poem-machine, last-forest arks, Portuguese hardware colour, and hymns that give everything they have. Side B opens in guitar-and-harmony tranquility, then moves through Kosmische hover, shadow-planet rework, Niflhel depths, a vacation-light response, and ends in a slanted average where nothing needs proving.
Overall mood: Expansive, contemplative, and quietly generous — full of star-aimed memory, analogue drive, and safe mediocrity. Perfect for deep listening, late hours, or sitting still while the tape finds its own orbit.
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.

Side B opens with Glasgow fairy wonk and oxide walk-film, then finds a 2016 first track, Plantasia homage, Gadigal beach light, and new-age retro plasma leading into the bright.
Overall mood: Warm, communal, and quietly expansive — full of shared rooms, analogue vignettes, and light that keeps arriving. Perfect for late mornings, deep listening, or sitting with the last page while the next reel still waits.

A ritual, slightly archival ambient journey through cave light, crystal devotion, and lost scrolls.
Side A opens in misfit forest worlds and frog-voiced infinity, then rises from empty Berlin-school air into Sagan-bright crystal strings, Adonia keyboards, and Pan Am polaroid ritual. Side B propagates Greek debut tones, shuffles a side-hustle co-op, unrolls Mossilon’s unfinished archive, lets sandalwood pulse over a vanished ocean, crowns a snow queen, and asks tomorrow to wait.
Overall mood: Contemplative, faintly mythic, and warmly analogue — full of restored tape, short illuminated paths, and memory that arrives as photographs. Perfect for late listening, quiet ritual, or letting the next day stay outside the room.
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.

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.

00:29:16 Autonomaton – Rusty robots dream

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 312
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.
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.
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: ∆ ∆ ∆ ∆ ∆

Album: The Egg in the Cosmic Crack [CYD 0165]

Album: 011: Soda Lite (Cape Gooseberry)

00:16:05 Trem 77 – Staers
https://trem77.bandcamp.com/track/staers
