Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 156
16 December 2025
“Hello, I’m Trevor, and this is episode one‑five‑six of the Virtual Cassette Library. Theme is Weaned Them Quietly—that’s the track you hear underneath, and it’s also a location you can find on a map if you’re curious enough to look it up on What3Words or YouTube. As usual, it’s ninety minutes, two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know—Craig Padilla on Projekt Records, Thom Yorke on XL Recordings—and others you might stumble across for the first time, like Sulk Rooms from Honley, or Rupert Lally out of Switzerland. Michal Turtle and HOVE bring us something dreamlike from Basel, Chris Randall sends mechanical pulses from Phoenix on Triplicate Records, and Redvet offers a guiding star from Floodlit Recordings. Now, there’s a little game running through these episodes starting with this episode. Each week, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten shows, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which, if you’re counting, means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ve got it right. Later on, we’ll hear Jarguna, Odile Bruckert, and Henrik Meierkord weaving textures somewhere between drone and kosmische; Daniel Vincent and Rick Sanders sketching out their own universes; Camp of Wolves from Lunar Module; Onepointwo with melodies that feel like they’ve always been there; Cole Pulice drifting through saxophone dreamscapes on Moon Glyph; and MICADO with a Berlin School ambient dream courtesy of Cyclical Dreams. On the flip side, Raica on Silver Threads, Lorna Dune, Signalstoerung with Asja Skrinik on Adventurous Music, Jordane Prestrot from France, and a piece of my own as Trevlad alongside Masefield Labs and gribbles. Fisty Kendal, Floormat Doormat, frostlake from Sheffield, Tom Bragl on Kahvi Collective, Kutiman and Ouzo Bazooka with a desert groove from Batov Records, Dual Dialect climbing pyramids, and Ghost In The Loop from Imaginary North. It’s ambient, drone, kosmische, experimental pop, modular synths, hauntology, global funk, and a bit of humour thrown in. The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it. So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you. First track up: Craig Padilla, Calypsos Improv Live 2011…”

EXPANSIVE WAVES 20
3 December 2025
Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Expansive Waves, episode twenty. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator.
Tonight’s programme is not for the hurried. Eight pieces, each longer than twelve minutes, each more patient than the last. If you’re expecting choruses, drops, or anything resembling urgency, you may want to try another channel.
We begin, as always, not with a bang but with a murmur. The track you’re hearing underneath me is from my own unreleased album, TVCL 08. It’ll be out when it’s ready—sixteen tracks, no sooner. You can find it on Bandcamp under Trevlad, if you’re the curious sort.
So, settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the cat sleep. Let the world spin without you for a while.
Right, we are starting off tonight with a deep dive into primitive droning territories, courtesy of Patrick R. Pärk. He is based in Denver, Colorado, and is clearly a devotee of the kosmische sound. This piece is ‘Music As An Awesome Healing Force,’ which appears on his album Luminous Rainbow Pulse, released on November 7. His sound covers Berlin School, electronic, experimental, drone, and krautrock.
Next up, we travel to Luxembourg for Maxence Dubroca & co, who is an experimental composer and arranger, and the frontman of Projet -> Renard) Ost) the company being Anita Franz & Simon Gris. The work we have here is ‘Counsel: A Roam Is Not Consequent,’ lifted from the Jump Badger Jump album, which saw release on July 16. This is wonderfully slow material, categorized as ambient drone, electroacoustic, minimal, and slowcore.
Marvelous. We move now to the UK, specifically Sheffield, for Hervé Perez. Hervé Perez is a sound artist, composer, and improviser, and his work is released via nexTTime production studios. This is a live recording, ‘nada 22, live stream 02 10 2024,’ released October 2, 2024, and takes up the largest part of the episode clocking in at 53:20. Hervés’ sound falls under electronic, electroacoustic, experimental electronic, improvisation, and new jazz. This is the sort of evocative work that uses disquiet and dissonance to open imaginary cinematic worlds.
We turn now to a journey from Jarguna, Odile Bruckert, and Henrik Meierkord. This is ‘Sleeping Among the Rice Fields,’ featured on their album Furrows of Memory. Projekt Records, which is America’s premier independent label specializing in passionately intense introspective music in the ambient, electronic, ethereal, and darkwave genres, released this piece on November 21. The work has a beautiful world, new age vibe. This is music that flows and takes you gently on a peaceful meditation.
Following that, we hear from SourceCodeX, a multi-instrumentalist specializing in synthesizers and guitar, working out of Washington, D.C.. This is ‘Clouds Parting Soon,’ which is part of the REBIRTH ~ 10TH ANNIVERSARY REMASTERED RELEASE, out on November 16. His sound covers ambient, electronic, progressive rock, and synth rock. SourceCodeX stated that listening to Steve Roach’s Structures from Silence is what turned him into an ambient artist. This is utterly splendid to my taste, described by others as an incredibly immersive experience and epic, mysterious, moving, and beautifully produced.
Next up, we have Ümlaut, with the piece ‘Pulling all the sky’. This track is featured on EX! Zine Edition 4 from Adventurous Music, released on November 24. Adventurous Music, based in Leipzig, Germany, is a non-profit micro-label promoting experimental music. Pulling all the sky provides a contemplative and trippy soundscape, it contains field recordings with bird song which I have a soft spot for.
We turn to Asheville, North Carolina, now for Spooqs. This is the complete ‘BIOMES (Full Suite)’, which came out on November 14. Spooqs calls his efforts Electronic Impressionist Instrumentals, creating mood music for imaginary spaces. As this is a full suite you’re are in for quite a trip.
And finally, to close out this installment of Expansive Waves, we have a beautiful, enveloping drone from a channel regular, Willebrant. This is Karl Willebrant, a bassist and producer from Naarm/Melbourne, Australia, running an ambient field drone project. This piece is called ‘A Knight on a Boat (slowed and reverb),’ from his collection The Knight Seas, which saw release on November 7. It is firmly placed in the ambient drone, electronic, and meditation categories. Fans describe the album as divine and providing real gentle ambience to lose yourself in.
🎧 Outro And now, as we approach the final piece, a few words before we vanish again. Thanks for sticking around. Really. These episodes aren’t designed for mass consumption, and neither are you. I’ll be back when the wind changes or the tape runs out—whichever comes first. No schedule, no promises. Waves, that’s all we have. If you liked what you heard, support the artists. Buy their music. Whisper their names into the void. It helps. You can stream this episode on Mixcloud at djsofabed/expansive-waves-20, and find all the links and credits on the episode page at trevor.se. Drop a comment if you feel moved. Or don’t. Silence is underrated. Until next time—stay resonant, stay expansive, and let the soundtrack of the universe find you. Take it away Willebrant.

🌌 Welcome, sonic travellers—Trevor here, transmitting from Torrevieja, Spain. This is your gateway to another immersive expedition through sound—Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library 080. A 90-minute journey with a metaphysical flip at the halfway mark—perfect for a long walk, a mental wander, or a quiet moment alone with the universe. Today’s flight is sponsored by the labels that keep our circuits humming: Lunar Module, whitelabrecs, Noray Records, Preston Capes, Mortality Tables, Binaural Space, Imaginary North, Cyclical Dreams, Buried Treasure, Batov Records, and, Owl Totem Recordings.
And the sonic architects: Pietro Zollo, Bit Cloudy, and, Phil Dodds.
Special thanks to Free Album Codes—always fueling the episodes with Bandcamp gems. 🙏
This episode includes 3 exclusive tracks that you’ll probably only hear here before they are officially released. The A side opens with a descent beneath the surface—into fractured ground and emotional resonance. From Newcastle’s electronic frontier, Bartholomew brings us “Land Fracture”, a track from his forthcoming album Subterranea, releasing July 25th via Castles In Space very own Lunar Module.
Crafted by composer Chris Bartholomew, whose theatrical credits include the Barbican and National Theatre Studio, this piece fuses cinematic storytelling with generative electronics, orchestral textures, and raw sonic abrasion. It’s a meditation on instability—both geological and emotional.
🌀 “Land Fracture” feels like a fault line rendered in sound. Granular textures crackle beneath sweeping harmonic arcs. There’s tension, but also grace. Think Hans Zimmer’s emotional weight, Tim Hecker’s digital erosion, and Ben Frost’s stark minimalism—all refracted through Bartholomew’s unique lens.
The album Subterranea was born after a shared bill with Gordon Chapman-Fox of Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan. That performance led to this release on Lunar Module, and it’s already drawing praise from sonic visionaries like Leafcutter John, who described the album as:
“Cryogenically frozen Beach Boys slowly melting from the Earth’s final great glacier.”
🎧 “Land Fracture” is just one of eight tracks that explore resilience, collapse, and the beauty found in broken structures. The full album drops July 25th on CD and digital. If you’re near Newcastle, don’t miss the launch party at The Globe on July 24th.
🌌 Let the ground shift. Let the frequencies fracture. This is Bartholomew.
Also on the A side a moment of return, of memory, of warmth wrapped in stillness. This exclusive preview comes from the upcoming album Aunque llegue la mañana by Spanish duo Raúl Cantizano and David Cordero, featuring the haunting voice of Lela Soto.
The track is titled “Algo a lo que regresar”—something to return to—and it lives up to its name. It’s a quiet invocation of place and feeling, where Cantizano’s flamenco guitar gently converses with Cordero’s ambient textures. The result is a soundscape that feels both rooted and weightless, like a memory suspended in golden light.
🌀 Lela Soto’s voice drifts in like a breeze through an open window—fragile, soulful, and timeless. Her presence adds a spectral warmth to the minimalist arrangement, grounding the electronics in something deeply human.
This is not fusion—it’s communion. Flamenco and ambient don’t clash here; they breathe together. The track is part of a larger work that explores absence, light, and the quiet persistence of hope.
🎧 The full album releases July 18, 2025, via Noray Records, with a limited cassette edition and digital formats available. Until then, this exclusive track offers a glimpse into a world where tradition and experimentation meet in hushed reverence.
🌙 Let this be your anchor. Let it remind you of something worth returning to.
⚡️ The final exclusive of the episode follows directly after this.—a track that doesn’t whisper, it confronts. This is “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” by East London’s Bit Cloudy, from the upcoming full-length protest album U.S. Nadir, releasing August 8th, 2025.
Known for his work across labels like Castles In Space, Lost Map, and Front and Follow, Bit Cloudy delivers a sonic gut-punch here—an instrumental that seethes with urgency and layered defiance. It’s IDM with teeth. Ambient with a purpose.
🌀 “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” is a title that says everything before the first note hits. It’s a rallying cry, a reckoning, and a reclamation. The track itself is a dense weave of distorted textures, and melodic fragments that shimmer like broken glass in sunlight. It’s fierce, but never chaotic—every element is placed with intention.
It’s resistance in waveform. A response to cruelty, to erasure, to the systems that fail the most vulnerable. And it’s delivered with a clarity that cuts through the noise.
🎧 Pre-order the full album U.S. Nadir via Bit Cloudy’s Bandcamp Page.
I won’t be commenting between the tracks. You can do that on the time line. Don’t be shy.
