Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 331

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, which in my experience is usually Tuesdays, or during eclipses, or when the kettle boils. 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. Unless you look.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
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.

I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
A water lily at a threshold, then a seven that has already shifted south.
Side A opens the door on a nymphaea before the official date, shares fear, rage and love in under a minute, walks the warm marble of a city still standing in the name, lets the wind keep both hands in its pockets and still carry you, files roots under a clause, and blushes a 1970 library record with the flute still warm. Side B marries a rope to itself, lets undesignated buildings prefer to meet, studies a field still learning the season, treats the tuning as the piece, lets the night accept the fire, and turns seven toward the warmer wall.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly tender, and quietly architectural — full of thresholds, pencil blueprints, and gardens that leave the gate open. Perfect for dusk listening, fields still learning the season, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Mood mist: a water lily at a threshold, three feelings in under a minute, a city of marble still standing in the name, a wind that kept us, roots under a clause, a library record blushing in 1970.
00:02:18 (Exclusive) Corrado Saija and Elia Piana – Nymphaea II
https://driftworks.bandcamp.com/
Album: Limen. Label: Driftworks Full release – Friday 16th October
Limen — the threshold. Piano talking to algorithms, stone porous, water fluent. Driftworks opening the door on the 16th. You may step through now.

00:09:01 Still & JRNDM – EFESO
https://pablosanguinetti.bandcamp.com/track/efeso
Ephesus, the marble still warm in the name. A library of columns, and the groove walking between them.
00:11:56 Scholars of the Peak & Warmfield – The Way the Wind Held Us
https://warmfield.bandcamp.com/track/the-way-the-wind-held-us
Single: The Way the Wind Held Us.
Title of the hour. A single that keeps both hands in its pockets and still manages to carry you.
00:15:05 Subordinate Clause – Cafraster
https://meansmag.bandcamp.com/track/cafraster
Album: MEANS 7: Grass Roots. Label: MEANS
Grass roots, the clause under the sentence. MEANS filing the soil with the syntax.
00:19:07 Larry Manteca – EROTICA
https://fourfliesrecords.bandcamp.com/track/erotica
Album: Erotica 70. Label: Four Flies Records
Seventy, restored. Four Flies lifting the velvet and finding the flute still warm.

Mood mist: a rope married to itself, buildings that prefer to meet, a field still learning the season, a tuning that is the piece, a night glad of the flame, a seven that has already shifted south.
00:23:10 Nickolas Mohanna – Eye Splice
https://nickolasmohanna.bandcamp.com/track/eye-splice
Album: Whistler.

https://thejewelgarden.bandcamp.com/track/tuning-study

The same garden, a few beds along. The piece is the tuning. The Jewel Garden letting the string find itself.

https://blacksunhighdesert.bandcamp.com/track/the-night-accepts-the-fire
Album: The Weight Of The Night Sky.

Little Sisters Curls

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. A 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
A warm, gentle, and introspective journey through pastoral folk, ambient guitar, and soft electronic textures with a strong sense of nature and nostalgia.
Side A blends intimate folk storytelling, dreamy coastal drifts, and lush emotional songwriting into earthy, organic soundscapes. Side B flows into shimmering downtempo, soulful introspection, neoclassical elegance, and playful folktronica before ending on a smooth, continuous ambient note.
Overall mood: Sunny yet melancholic, tender, and deeply comforting. It feels like a peaceful spring or early summer day — wandering through fields, sitting by the coast, or watching golden light fade in the evening. Warm, hopeful, and emotionally rich with a beautiful balance of folk heart and ambient serenity. Perfect for relaxed listening, quiet reflection, or gentle background accompaniment.
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.
So 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.
Side A
00:00:00 The Modern Folk – Two Sisters
Gentle, haunting folk with intimate storytelling and delicate melancholy. Warm and wistful
00:03:37 The Order Of The 12 – Eye Of A Lens
Hypnotic, swirling psychedelic electronica with rich analogue layers and cosmic focus. Mesmerizing.
00:07:50 Old Amica – To the Coastline
Dreamy, windswept ambient folk with soft textures and coastal longing. Peaceful and evocative.
00:11:37 Bon Iver – Second Nature
Warm, introspective indie-folk with lush production and emotional vulnerability. Beautifully tender.
00:15:28 Austin Potter – Springtime
Bright, hopeful ambient-folk with fresh spring-like clarity and gentle optimism.
00:17:52 Danny Paul Grody – Hidden Valley
Pastoral, fingerstyle guitar ambient with serene beauty and hidden valley tranquility. Gorgeous.
00:22:13 Jeff Gburek + Eryk Nowacki – Artemesia & Moringa
Organic, earthy improvisation with herbal textures and natural, wandering calm.
Side B
00:30:08 Tycho – Spectre (Bibio Remix)
Warm, shimmering downtempo with Bibio’s signature soft-focus charm and dreamy grooves.
00:34:26 Moses Sumney – Plastic
Soulful, artful indie-R&B with expressive vocals and clever, fluid arrangements.
00:36:46 North Americans – Classic Water
Sparse, glowing ambient guitar with wide-open spaces and quiet emotional depth.
00:40:39 North Sea Radio Orchestra – Arcade
Elegant, chamber-like neoclassical with warm orchestration and nostalgic charm.

00:48:58 Julien Hauspie – Coda
Delicate, minimalist ambient closer with soft emotional resonance and graceful fade.
00:52:08 10.32 – Cornelius Drive

Smooth, flowing ambient with seamless transitions and comforting continuity. Perfect ending.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178
15 February 2026

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator.
A sonic 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.
So, settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the cat sleep. Let the world spin without you for a while.
We float tonight through drifts of ambient electronic, modular wanderings, dubwise echoes, some art rock angles, leftfield pop inflections, drone undertows, and the odd burst of experimental pop. Places flicker by: Wormhole World gatherings, Republic of Music corners, Castles in Space haunts, Invisible Inc. pathways, Four Flies shadows, and points scattered from Lancashire to Vilnius, Munich to Mexico City.
The longest stretch in the selection comes from Caught in Joy – Elsewhere, a patient unravelling that lingers in the mind. The shortest snaps past in a flash with Allmanna Town – Sample 24, not even reaching the minute mark.
We begin with Dubberrookie and Winter Weather, a seasonal drift from A Wormhole Xmas 2025 on Wormhole World. Chilled dub pulses meet wintry synth haze, gentle echoes folding into themselves like snow settling on rooftops.
Headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the frequencies claim you.
Dubberrookie – Winter Weather. Dubberrookie will appear on my upcoming compilation “Puzzles of the Psyche”. There’s still time. Send in your entries by March 25.
Now Floating Points with Precursor, the bonus unreleased cut from the Elaenia 10 Year Anniversary on the Republic of Music label. Sparse piano gestures meet subtle electronic undercurrents, a quiet prelude that breathes slow and deliberate.
Floating Points – Precursor.
Next up Bahia Brazil based artist – Navin Kala offers Vijf from Spinoza on a favourite label of the show Mystery Circles. Minimalist piano lines trace thoughtful paths, space around each note allowing contemplation to gather.
Navin Kala – Vijf. A reminder now if you have a piece of music that has meant a lot to you for some reason tell me about it. I’m putting together a new show called “Chord Confessions” and I need some tales behind the most important music ever released. PM me on the socials or email me trevlad@gmail.com Now back to the show.
Now amping up the drone. Stewart Keller brings Disheveled Zen from the whopping 100 track 2020-2025 Archives. Loosened field recordings and soft electronics tangle in a relaxed, almost accidental calm.
Stewart Keller – Disheveled Zen.
Here’s me Trevlad with Curving Archive Scales from the Trick or Treat 4 compilation on Sounds for the Soul. Archive dust and curving scales weave a long, meditative thread, time marked in subtle modular shifts.
Trevlad – Curving Archive Scales. Just a quick shout out to the latest followers Bernt Haas, who I believe is part of the Cries from the LTN outfit. Also Liquid Shape and The Tall Librarian. Thanks for the follow.
Now Mexico City based artists Eafhm and Mwamwa collaborate on Luzne (Mwamwa Part) from the split release on Secuencias Temporales. Dubby bass hums beneath fragmented vocal traces, a hazy half-step wander.
Eafhm, Mwamwa – Luzne (Mwamwa Part).
And now for something completely different. Deerhoof deliver L’Amour Stories from Apple O’ on Joyful Noise Recordings. Quick, angular art rock bursts with playful yelps and tight rhythmic jabs.
Deerhoof – L’Amour Stories.
Garda slips in Substratum from S-Lyga on the Neotantra label. Deep drone layers build slow atmospheric weight, substratum textures rumbling low.
Garda – Substratum.
Now time to punk it up. Tinned Meats present Caught in the Wild from Kilter on I Heart Noise. Raw edges meet noisy propulsion, caught somewhere between garage grit and wilder impulses. Mad stuff…
Tinned Meats – Caught in the Wild.
And now Keith Seatman with Tonight’s Guests Are? from the forthcoming Counting to Ten Then Back Again on Castles in Space. Radiophonic quirks and psych-folk fragments evoke childhood games and firework packaging memories, playful yet oddly disorienting.
Keith Seatman – Tonight’s Guests Are?
The Polish legend of Coconut Creek, Caught in Joy closes Side A with Elsewhere.
Karol is the most prolific Berlin school artist on the planet. He produces so much quality music on a weekly basis. Which he records live and can be witnessed on his Youtube channel. Analogue drooling adventures. The track Elsewhere is from the release Colorfield. Self released back in mid December. Karol has released 4 albums since then just for some perspective. This is Analogue coloured space drifts to close out the first side of the show.
Side B
We turn the cassette. If you have something you want featured on the shows lease don’t be shy. I’m not on a schedule which means I get to do shows several times a week, which means you won’t have to wait long to hear your music here. Here’s a label that does just that from the fantastic Italian label Four Flies Records. Chiaré opens with Ago e Filo from the album Sei. Italian library echoes meet modern restraint, strings and subtle grooves threading through.
Chiaré – Ago e Filo.
Now LOULA YORKE shares The Hidden Messages in Water (Live at the Mount Without) from Live Compendium 2 on Truxalis. Live-captured modular meditations unfold with quiet intensity, water-like ripples expanding.
LOULA YORKE – The Hidden Messages in Water (Live at the Mount Without).
Next another artist who has contributed in the past to my compilations the fantastic The Music Liberation Front Sweden who arrive with A Lot Of Things Ain’t Changing from their collection on Third Kind Records. Warped pop edges bend familiar shapes into something skewed and resilient.
The Music Liberation Front Sweden – A Lot Of Things Ain’t Changing.
And Now Higamos Hogamos rework Re-Exit (GK Machine Dub Voyager) from Voyager Dubs on Glasgows Invisible, Inc. Deep dub transformations stretch the original into cavernous space.
Higamos Hogamos – Re-Exit (GK Machine Dub Voyager).
Francesca Guccione offers Mechanical Promenade from Connected 3 on IUWE Records. Mechanical rhythms promenade alongside delicate electric piano, a poised mechanical dance. A wonderful must have compilation celebrating 9 of the best female experimental electronic out there. In fact the entire label focuses on the beauty of female diversity in electronic music. Enjoy.
Francesca Guccione – Mechanical Promenade.
Komodo Kolektif follow with Disciple Of The Drone (GK Machine Disciple Of The Dub) also from that Voyager Dubs compilation on Invisible, Inc. Drone devotion meets dub disciple rites, heavy and hypnotic. Invisible, Inc. is a label I wish I could play more of on the channel, and just can’t for financial reasons. They are great so if you can grab some of their beautiful physical releases.
Komodo Kolektif – Disciple Of The Drone (GK Machine Disciple Of The Dub).
Now friend of the show Russian artist Ndorfik contributes Tahvi from Solos on People Can Listen. 5/8 Idm explorations carve sparse, introspective paths. Ndorfik has enlightened me on the fact that Mixcloud is not available without streaming through VPNs in his neck of the woods. So I send him the files of past shows so he can spread the good word.
Ndorfik – Tahvi.
Now the penultimate track and two masters of the ambient scene. Rhucle & Arbee bring Mournful Sky from Plain on David Cordero curated label Noray Records. Mournful ambient skies drift with gentle melancholy, field-like textures breathing slow.
Rhucle & Arbee – Mournful Sky.
Material for future shows is always welcome. Send your vibrations to trevlad@gmail.com. Purchase paths glow at trevor.se and in each show’s timeline.
Until the next cassette turns.
Trevor, signing off from Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178.
I leave you with the very short track Sample 24 by Allmanna Town Allmanna Town is Phil Dodds who runs the amazing Waxing Crescent Records and my fellow Stockholm dweller Jonas Geiger Ohlin of The New Emphatic fame. this track is from Rodents out on their own Bandcamp imprint. Sampled fragments glitch and reform in rodent-quick bursts.
And that fades us out. Cheerio…
