Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here. Welcome to the new Virtual Cassette Library – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that sets the tone for the set. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark. If and when I get a couple more subscribers then I’ll go back to doing 90 minute versions, complete with commentary. This episode is based on the track “They Are Coming Back! (Possibly Maybe)” by friend of the channel Uncle Fido. Available through his alter ego Binaural Space. Dropped May 1. If you make music 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. And if you’re enjoying the channel, please consider subscribing — even if it’s just for a month, it makes a real difference. So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it. No breaks, just the music.
