“Greetings all. Episode one-five-three of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Bothered Sugars Expert. That’s the track you hear underneath, and it’s also a location you can find on a map. I filmed it—it’s up on YouTube if you’re curious. I’m Trevor, and I present to you ninety minutes, two virtual sides, fifteen tracks each. You’ll hear Downscope on Unexplained Sounds Group, Blank Thomas from Third Kind Records, and Akasha System shaping haunted atmospheres. Bobby Freex appears via Buried Treasure, Ursula’s Cartridges on Ingrown, and Mick Chillage with Astronomy for Beginners. Later, International Debris, Bluff Creek, Hari Maia on Cyclical Dreams, and my own track Probing Softest Update drift into view. Aphex Twin, To Rococo Rot, and Nigel Mullaney carry us deeper into the resonance. Labels orbiting here include Mahorka, Shimmering Moods, and Adventurous Music. Styles range from ambient and drone to electroacoustic, kosmische, and experimental jazz. These transmissions stretch across places—London, Toronto, Melbourne, and Rouen—woven into the library’s signal. The eighth TVCL album is on Bandcamp for pre‑order—it drops when we hit sixteen tracks. Remember, every comment, every like, every subscription keeps the frequencies flowing. So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.

Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at Episode 138 of The Virtual Cassette Library. Caravan Grew Vaccines is the episodes subtitle, as well as the track you’re hearing in the background and it’s geographical location which I’ve filmed and can be experienced on YouTube. I’m Trevor and I curate these 90-minute genre bending drifts through frequencies from around the globe. No commentary. No interruptions. Just pure sonic immersion. Two, 45 minute mixes, 15 tracks per side with a side change in the middle. Picture the listening experience like being at a music festival where the artists play on a rotating stage. Each act is allotted time for their piece and as it ends the next act takes over rotating into view. Styles for this episode range from IDM to neo classical, from ritual ambient to jazz-funk. The musical keys in focus are B major and G sharp minor, A flat minor. This episode contains some household names like Greg Foat, Jogging House and Sven Wunder. Some friends of the channel like odd person, Henrik Meierkord and The British Stereo Collective, as well as some supporting labels like oscarson, moniker eggplant, ingrown records, whitelabrecs, mahorka and Cyclical Dreams. All the artists and labels are the soul of this show. If you’d like to be included on future episodes send your art to trevlad@gmail.com. Links to all the tracks are illuminated at trevor.se and marked in each episode’s Mixcloud timeline. Pre-order the 7th TVCL album on Bandcamp. It drops when we hit 16 tracks. Also the first channel compilation with 37 tracks so far will drop on the 8th of November, pre-orders are available. Subscribe and unlock 870 archived shows. Remember, every comment, every like, every follow, subscription and, album purchase keeps the frequencies flowing. So now—secure those headphones. Let time dissolve, and let the frequencies claim you.
