Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 199

A sacred space for quiet reflection.

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 “Tenebris” by friend of the channel Gareth Evans, also known as own as HDRF. Available on the upcoming compilation “The Mystery of the Night”. Dropping June 26 on my own Bandcamp page. There is still time for you to get your entries in.
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.

Evening Embers Rise

Slowly building layers create a sense of quiet ascension and hopeful emergence.

Good day to you listeners, wherever you are. This is Trevor.
Welcome once again to one of these spontaneous episodes – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that appears somewhere inside the set itself. This episode titled Evening Embers Rise is based on the track Rise by The Peace Race, from the album Shelter, which comes out on July 1 via the fantastic Mortality Tables label. All the other tracks happened to just fit the vibe.
So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it. If you can subscribe, even if it’s just for the month it would be a great help.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 187

23 March 2026

///grinning.cheek.traffic

(Loch Ness pub in Stockholm where the beer tastes like regret and possibility in equal measure)

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.

…hey.
welcome back, or maybe welcome for the first time, to the slowest-growing show on the internet. or off it. whatever.
this is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-eight-seven.
we’re still calling it a virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous, but let’s be honest—it’s just me in a room full of blinking lights and dying batteries, trying to convince the void that independent music still matters.
twenty artists. no schedule. drops when the mood hits, which is usually when normal people are asleep.
the three-word subtitles? they’re What3Words locations that mean something to me. personal little coordinates. this one’s grinning.cheek.traffic. Stockholm pub. good beer, better stories you forget by morning.
If you want in—send weird files, codes, confessions, whatever—to trevlad@gmail.com.
labels getting the slow nod tonight: Moolakii Club Audio Interface, Castles In Space, Adventurous Music, Bricolage, Audiobulb, Ingrown Records, i u we records, Noray Records… the usual suspects haunting the margins.
styles? liminal ambient, hauntronica, post-disco, whatever falls between the cracks. places on the map: Québec, Prague, Pereira. the world’s getting smaller, but the weird corners are still there.
Send stories for Chord Confessions. that song that ruined or saved you. record it yourself or I’ll read it in my sleep-voice and play the track. win-win-win.
also doing Trev Tales now—stories woven into the sets. like this is one long dream you’re not sure you want to wake up from.
One new follower since last time. Paso stranger. cheers, mate. you’re in the club now. the one with no meetings and no rules.…

A soft hiss opens the curtain. dust motes spin in pale light. first pulse arrives like a hangover you didn’t earn.

First out f5point6 – The Second Day (Remastered).
https://f5point6.bandcamp.com/track/the-second-day-remastered
Grey dawn leaking through blinds that gave up years ago. yesterday’s coffee is a cold accusation in the mug. synths breathe slow, like fog rolling over abandoned motorways.
headphones on. let time dissolve. frequencies claim you. no refunds.…

That was ‘The Second Day (Remastered)’ – by f5point6 from the album ‘In Retrospect’ out on the See Blue Audio label.
The next artist is Ver – Combine.
https://secuenciastemporales.bandcamp.com/track/ver-combine-2
Metallic clanks fold into wet footsteps, voices smear across rusted combine blades turning in slow motion under an endless flat sky.

Yes ‘Combine’ by Ver from that ‘Commemorative Compilation’ I’ve been playing lately out on the Secuencias Temporales label.
And now Dåggěr (Szórëgg) – Telekinetic Coercion.
https://secuenciastemporales.bandcamp.com/track/d-gg-r-sz-r-gg-telekinetic-coercion
Invisible fingers press the temples, thoughts lift like iron filings toward a humming magnet, chair legs scrape backward without feet.

Crunchy, haunted vibes there with ‘Telekinetic Coercion’ by Dåggěr (Szórëgg) also from the ‘Commemorative Compilation’ release.
Dub time now, Rural District Lo-Fi Recording Project – Planning A Bootleg LP?
https://ruraldistrictlofirecordingproject.bandcamp.com/track/planning-a-bootleg-lp
Cassette deck whirs in a damp shed, pencil scratches setlists on yellowing paper, distant lawnmower drone leaks through the window like memory bleed.

Gotta love that ‘Planning A Bootleg LP?’ by Rural District Lo-Fi Recording Project from the self released album ‘Jolly Johnny and his Oompahing Oomlahs’.
Time to pull some shapes on the dance floor with Baxter Dury – Schadenfreude Ft. JGrrey
https://baxterdury.bandcamp.com/track/schadenfreude-ft-jgrrey
Cigarette cherry glows in the dark cab, someone else’s misfortune tastes sharp and sweet on the tongue, laughter curls like smoke rings.

That was ‘Schadenfreude Ft. JGrrey’ by Baxter Dury from the album ‘Allbarone’ out on Heavenly Recordings
We retire to the lounge with 36 – Echo Diffusion.
https://pitp.bandcamp.com/track/echo-diffusion
Synth notes dissolve into mist, each chord sends ripples across black water, distant towers repeat the lament softer, softer, gone.

You’ve been listening to ‘Echo Diffusion’ by 36 from the album ‘Reality Engine’ out on the Past Inside the Present label.
Now the wonderful Ann Annie – home. This is a short 2 minute outing.
https://annannie.bandcamp.com/track/home-3
Bare feet on sun-warmed floorboards, lace curtains breathe in and out, a kettle clicks off somewhere deeper in the house that still smells of yesterday’s bread.

Blissful acoustic guitar there in ‘home’ by Ann Annie from the album ‘El Prado’ available through the ’Nettwerk’ label.
Which brings us nicely to Empty House – Sea Birds
https://mcpm.bandcamp.com/track/sea-birds
Gulls wheel above peeling paint, empty rooms fill with salt wind, curtains flap like trapped wings against salt-crusted glass.

Hope you’re still with us on the planet after ’Sea Birds’ by Empty House from the album ‘MCPM018 compilation album’ out on the amazing Moolakii Club Audio Interface label.
Time to head back to the club now with Pablo Diarra – Humour noir.
https://songe-anima-records.bandcamp.com/track/humour-noir
Cigarette burns slow in ashtray, punchline lands like wet gravel, laughter echoes in an empty corridor lit only by neon bleeding through blinds.

Yes ‘Humour noir’ there by Pablo Diarra aka Saïph from the album ‘Griffe Sonam’ out on Songe Anima Records
Next up an artist I feature quite regularly James Adrian Brown – ‘Poster Child’ from the album ‘Forever Neon Lights’ out on channel champion label Castles In Space
https://jamesadrianbrown.bandcamp.com/track/poster-child
Faded gig poster curls at the edges, spotlight glare trapped in yellowing tape, young face staring back with too much certainty.
Catch you on the flip side.

B Side
Needle drops into silence, groove dust crackles, the hidden track breathes like someone left the tape running after everyone went home.
This is the legendary Deerhoof – Apple Bomb.
https://deerhoof.bandcamp.com/track/apple-bomb
Teeth sink into skin, juice sprays, frantic drums explode outward, tart sweetness turns chaotic sugar-rush panic.

Classic Deerhoof there with ‘Apple Bomb’ from the album ‘Apple O’’ available through Joyful Noise Recordings
Next we get some haunted chills via Catharæ, Trem 77 – Dreams of the Mediterranéant (Fade at Brighton Beach Mix)
https://adventurousmusic.bandcamp.com/track/dreams-of-the-mediterran-ant-fade-at-brighton-beach-mix
Waves lap shingle under sodium lamps, bougainvillea scent mixes with diesel and chips, sun-bleached dream fades into Brighton March grey.

Cheers to Trem 77 for sending me ‘Dreams of the Mediterranéant (Fade at Brighton Beach Mix)’ from the album ‘Dreams of the Méditerranéant’ out on the Adventurous Music label.
We stay in the same world now Minimal Drone GRL and Belial Pelegrim – A Remembered Land Long Forgotten
https://bricolageglasgow.bandcamp.com/track/a-remembered-land-long-forgotten
Low hum rises from cracked earth, ancient stone walls breathe dust, wind carries fragments of half-remembered songs across barren fields.

‘A Remembered Land Long Forgotten’ there by Minimal Drone GRL and Belial Pelegrim from the album ‘Movements of a Cloud’ out on the Bricolage label.
Time to get weird Keith Seatman – Another Strange Thing
https://keithseatman-cis.bandcamp.com/track/another-strange-thing
Ornate music box unwinds in attic gloom, figurine spins jerkily, something moves just beyond the torch beam.

Great work there in ‘Another Strange Thing’ by Keith Seatman from the album ‘Counting To Ten Then Back Again’ out on Castles In Space.
Next up a piece of my own as Trevlad – Furnish Rests Goggle
https://trevlad.bandcamp.com/track/furnish-rests-goggle
Old sofa sags under fairy lights, goggles fog with breath, synth arpeggios drift like cigarette smoke through thrift-shop clutter.

That was ‘Furnish Rests Goggle’ which is the What3Words geo location of a hotel I spent a few days in back in January. It’s from the album TVCL 10.
Next we go minimal and dark with Autistici – 2.25 Degrees of Internalisation
https://autistici.bandcamp.com/track/225-degrees-of-internalisation
Faint heartbeat clicks inside the skull, temperature drops 2.25°, thoughts fold inward like origami swans sinking in black ink.

You’ve been witness to ‘2.25 Degrees of Internalisation’ by Autistici from the album ‘Familiarity Unfolded’ out on the Audiobulb label.
Now to brighten things up a notch Heaven Topology – Adventure Compass
https://ingrown.bandcamp.com/track/adventure-compass
Needle quivers between impossible directions, star charts peel from damp walls, footsteps echo toward a horizon that bends upward.

Excellent ‘Adventure Compass’ by Heaven Topology from the album ‘Describer’ out on the king of listening parties Ingrown Records
I always like to add a pinch of Jazz to the episodes so here’s Robohands – Achilles
https://robohands.bandcamp.com/track/achilles
Tendon strings pluck taut, bronze dust settles on mechanical joints, slow-motion stride across cracked marble, heel exposed.

Great drumming there in ‘Achilles’ by Robohands from the album ‘Oranj’ out on Bastard Jazz Recordings
Now the longest track of this episode at just under 10 minutes. This is Never Sol – Dark Mountains, Red Dust
https://iuwerecords.bandcamp.com/track/never-sol-dark-mountains-red-dust
Boots crunch red powder, peaks swallow the sky, wind carries iron taste and distant thunder that never arrives.

What a trip in ‘Dark Mountains, Red Dust’ by Never Sol from one of the best compilations released so far this year ‘connected #3’ out on i u we records
Before we go our separate ways and the virtual tape clicks out. I just want to thank you all for taking the time to listen and I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links to the material are in the comments on Mixcloud, on trevor.se and on the channel substack.
To send us off Rhucle & Arbee – Plain from the album of the same name. Available on Noray Records
https://norayrecords.bandcamp.com/track/plain
Endless beige grass bends under pale sun, single power line hums, footsteps leave no trace on the flat, quiet expanse.

Ode to the fem 2

00:00:00 Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith – Thoughts On The Future
https://kaitlynaureliasmith.bandcamp.com/track/thoughts-on-the-future
(from the album *Thoughts On The Future*) Nettwerk label.
A vast, twilight desert stretches under a sky streaked with electric violet auroras. Floating modular synth orbs pulse softly like distant lanterns, while faint geometric patterns ripple across sand dunes that shift in slow, liquid waves.

00:07:01 Gollden – destiny #10
https://imaginarynorth.bandcamp.com/track/destiny-10
(from the album *Destiny*) Imaginary North label.
A neon-lit corridor in an abandoned cyber-city at midnight. Holographic cherry blossoms drift through cracked concrete, their petals glitching into fractal code as distant data streams cascade down mirrored walls in electric blue.

00:09:00 frostlake – Sundowner
https://discusmusic.bandcamp.com/track/sundowner
(from the album *Shattered Stone*) Discus Music label.
Golden-orange sunlight spills across a calm coastal harbor at dusk. Wooden boats rock gently on mirrored water streaked with neon reflections, while seabirds circle above crumbling stone quays where long shadows stretch like forgotten promises.

00:12:34 Christina Chatfield – Sutro
(from the album *Sutro*) Mysteries of the Deep label.
Fog rolls thick over ruined Victorian bathhouse ruins perched on jagged cliffs above the Pacific. Pale moonlight filters through rusted iron frameworks, illuminating scattered pearl-like droplets suspended in the mist and tangled reeds swaying in an unseen current.

00:19:12 Rosie Tee – Wishbone
(from the album *Night Creature*) Kikimora Records label.
A dimly lit attic room filled with antique mirrors and velvet drapes at midnight. A delicate bone-white wishbone hovers mid-air, cracking open to release swirling threads of crimson light that weave into spectral figures dancing on the walls.

00:22:47 Hannah Peel – Emergence In Nature
(from the album *Fir Wave*) KMP Music Ltd.
Emerald forest canopy at dawn, where sunlight pierces through leaves in sharp, crystalline beams. Tiny bioluminescent particles rise like fireflies in reverse, forming organic patterns that pulse and expand across moss-covered branches in rhythmic waves.

00:26:42 Garden Gate – A Dream Within a Dream
(appears on the album *Edgar Allan Poe*) Library Of The Occult label.
Endless nested corridors of antique bookshelves under flickering candlelight. Pages flutter open on their own, revealing layered dreamscapes: oceans within oceans, skies folding into more skies, each frame dissolving into the next like ink in water.

00:29:13 ena b. – Birds Dance
(from the album *Night Walk*) Secuencias Temporales label
A twilight meadow encircled by ancient willows. Hundreds of shadowy birds lift in unison, their wings tracing glowing arabesques against a bruised purple sky, spiraling upward in harmonious loops that mirror invisible currents of wind.

00:34:05 ANNABEL [lee] – Cat’s Eye
(from the album*DECAPODA*) Buried Treasure label
A velvet-black room illuminated only by a single luminous green cat’s eye gemstone floating at eye level. Refractions scatter emerald light across floating dust motes and half-seen feline silhouettes prowling along the edges of perception.

00:37:06 Daniella Tourgeman, Tomer Baruch – Mistor
(from the album *שפת עולם*) Kame’a Music label
Ancient stone alleyways in a fog-shrouded Mediterranean city at predawn. Soft amber lanterns cast trembling pools of light on dew-wet cobblestones, where whispers of mist curl around arched doorways hiding secrets in shadow.

00:41:34 Castle If – Missing 404
(from the album *darknet*)
A glitchy, pixelated library floating in digital void. Empty bookshelves flicker erratically, pages dissolving into error-code rain that falls upward, while a lone cursor blinks insistently in the center of an unreachable, cracked screen.

00:44:15 Sachi Kobayashi – Nostalgia
(from the album *More Than Just A Dream*) Stereoscenic Records.
A faded childhood bedroom bathed in warm afternoon sun through lace curtains. Old photographs on the wall slowly develop reverse—colors draining away—while a music box melody unwinds in slow motion, dust motes suspended like frozen memories.

00:49:26 Me Lost Me – Real World
(from the album RPG) Upset The Rhythm label.
A bustling urban street viewed through rain-streaked window glass at night. Neon signs blur into watercolor streaks of pink and cyan, pedestrians dissolve into abstract shapes, while reflections in puddles show an alternate, quieter reality beneath.

00:52:23 Little Dragon, April + VISTA – Layers
(from the album *Slipping Into Color*) Ninja Tune label.
Translucent geological strata glowing in deep earth tones underground. Each layer pulses with different hues—indigo, amber, rose—shifting and overlapping like sedimentary memories, with faint bioluminescent veins threading through the rock.

00:55:46 The Mistys – Nervous Mirror
(from the album *Situations | Useless Mouths*) Castles In Space label.
A cracked vanity mirror in a deserted ballroom under chandelier light. Reflections multiply infinitely, each version showing subtle distortions: trembling hands, shifting expressions, fractured eyes staring back with quiet unease.

00:59:42 marine eyes, IKSRE – Forgiveness
(from the album *Nurture*) Past Inside the Present (PITP)
Soft ocean waves lapping at a moonlit shore lined with sea glass. Gentle tides carry away shards of colored light, smoothing rough edges over time, while a pale horizon glows with quiet, healing luminescence.

01:04:36 Sababa 5 & Canay Doğan – Gaip
(from the singel *Gaip / Seher*) Batov Records
A bustling Istanbul bazaar at golden hour, viewed through haze of incense smoke. Spices spill in vibrant pyramids, lanterns sway overhead casting warm patterns on tiled floors, while distant calls blend into a hypnotic, wandering rhythm.

Ode to the fem

00:00:00 Patricia Wolf – The Grotto
(from the album See-Through)
Balmat records.
Soft emerald light filters through a hidden cave entrance, illuminating dripping stalactites that gleam like wet crystals. Shadows shift gently across moss-covered stone walls as faint ripples spread across a shallow turquoise pool. Pale vines curl downward, touching the water’s surface, while distant echoes suggest unseen chambers opening further in.

00:02:54 marine eyes – suddenly green
(from the album to belong)
Past Inside the Present.
Early morning fog lifts from rolling hills, revealing fresh blades of grass sparkling with dew under a pale sky. Sunlight breaks through in soft patches, turning the landscape a vivid, almost luminous shade of spring green. Distant wildflowers sway lightly, and the air feels newly alive with quiet renewal.

00:05:50 IKSRE – Granite
(from the album Solar Return: Golden Hour Mix)
Imaginary North.
Ancient rock faces rise stark against a vast, open sky at dusk, their rough surfaces etched with veins of quartz that catch fading golden light. Wind moves across the stone, carrying subtle grains of dust, while the horizon blurs into warm amber tones, evoking timeless solidity and quiet endurance.

00:09:01 Panic Girl – Feathers Of Hope
(from the album Memories)
i u we records.
Delicate white feathers drift slowly downward through golden afternoon light, catching gentle currents in an open meadow. They settle softly on tall grass stems, some twirling upward again before landing, surrounded by distant wild blooms and a sense of uplifting lightness.

00:11:26 Volker Rapp – Out of my Mind
(from the album Blade Runner 2099)
Cyclical Dreams.
Neon reflections shimmer across rain-slicked streets in a futuristic cityscape at night, with towering holographic billboards flickering in electric blues and pinks. Distant flying vehicles streak overhead, their lights trailing like comets, while the scene pulses with synthetic glow and detached introspection.

00:11:58 Andrea Cichecki – Different Step
(from the album Drawn Into The Edge Effect)
Castles In Space.
Footsteps trace an irregular path along a narrow coastal ledge at twilight, where waves crash below against dark rocks. Mist rises from the sea, blending with soft purple hues in the sky, and small stones shift underfoot, marking a deliberate yet wandering rhythm.

00:15:24 glo – kenóō
(from the album associated with experimental/ambient contexts, often standalone or mix-featured)
Empty temple halls stretch into dim distance, lit only by faint lanterns casting long shadows on wooden floors. Incense smoke curls lazily upward, dissolving into stillness, while subtle echoes of distant chimes linger in vast, open space.

00:21:22 Sachi Kobayashi – Healing
(from the album Weathervane)
Stereoscenic Records.
Gentle sunlight filters through a canopy of leaves in a quiet forest clearing, dappling the ground with moving patterns of gold. A soft wind stirs wild grasses and small white flowers, carrying a sense of calm restoration that spreads outward like slow-spreading warmth.

00:24:31 Amorphous Androgynous – Meadows
(from the album associated with their ambient/electronic works, often A Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble series context)
Wide open fields stretch under a vast blue sky, dotted with clusters of wildflowers swaying in a warm breeze. Butterflies drift lazily between blooms, and distant tree lines shimmer in heat haze, evoking endless peaceful expanse.

00:27:42 the black Albumen – provokovieff
(from the album associated with Buried Treasure releases)
Buried Treasure.
Abstract geometric shapes float in deep black void, slowly rotating and intersecting with faint glowing edges in crimson and violet. Forms distort and reform like liquid metal, creating tension through precise yet unpredictable motion.

00:30:09 Pogo – Alice (Extended)
(from the album Broken Beats & Magic Snacks or extended rework context)
Vibrant cartoon woodlands come alive with swirling colors: oversized mushrooms glow in neon pinks and blues, teacups float mid-air, and checkerboard paths twist into impossible loops. Madcap elements whirl together in playful, accelerating chaos.

00:33:13 Emily A. Sprague – Horizon
(from the album Mount Vision)
RVNG Intl.
A flat, endless ocean meets a pale sky at dawn, with thin layers of pastel clouds drifting low. Subtle waves lap forward, reflecting soft rose and lavender tones that gradually brighten, holding a meditative line of infinite calm.

00:39:13 Scott Gilmore – Subtle Vertigo
(from the album Subtle Vertigo)
Spiraling staircases ascend into misty heights within an old tower, their steps worn smooth and bathed in diffused light from narrow windows. Shadows curve along curved walls, inducing a gentle, disorienting pull upward.

00:43:35 Cate Brooks – Curig
(from the album Horizons or related Ghost Box-inspired works)
Rolling Welsh hills under overcast skies, with ancient stone walls dividing emerald fields. Sheep graze quietly, and faint mist clings to distant ridges, evoking rural solitude and timeless pastoral quiet.

00:48:38 Tim Shiel – Between Ends (feat. Lonelyspeck)
(from the album Glowing Pains: Music From The Gardens Between)
Spirit Level
Twilight bridges connect shadowy urban fragments, suspended over dark water where city lights reflect in fractured lines. Echoing vocal fragments drift across the scene, marking a liminal space of transition and unresolved emotion.

00:50:09 Dean Honer, Supreme Vagabond Craftsman – I Saw The Frogman
(from the album Frogman)
A surreal pond at midnight, illuminated by moonlight: a humanoid figure with frog-like features emerges halfway from the water, wearing an old coat, staring curiously. Reeds sway around lily pads, blending whimsy with eerie folklore.

00:53:11 Hong Kong In The 60s – Disintegration, The Advisory Circle Reshape
(from the album Disintegration or reshape series)
Old film reels flicker with decaying 1960s Hong Kong street scenes: neon signs buzz and blur, crowds dissolve into grainy static, and colors bleed outward in slow analog decay, reshaped into haunting nostalgia.

00:56:08 Anita Tatlow – in hallowed spaces
(from the album the farthest star)
slow echo.
Sunlight streams through tall arched windows in an empty cathedral, illuminating dust motes dancing in golden beams. Stone pillars rise into shadow, and faint reverb carries the sense of sacred, resonant emptiness.

00:59:34 Lisa Bella Donna – Big Briar Cove
(from the album *Moogmentum (Presented by the Bob Moog Foundation)
*)
Thick briar thickets encircle a hidden cove along a rugged coastline, where tangled vines climb over weathered rocks. Waves roll in gently below, and wildflowers peek through thorns, creating a secluded, overgrown sanctuary.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178

15 February 2026

///totally.ears.caring

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…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 171

23 January 2026

///comfort.good.froth

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 sliver of the clock you’ve managed to carve out for yourself. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, episode one hundred and seventy-one. I’m Trevor, speaking to you from the other side of the tape head, where the oxide still clings and the hiss is part of the charm.

We find ourselves on the twenty-third of January, two thousand and twenty-six, with a programme assembled in the spirit of those old C90s that used to stretch evenings without apology. Two sides, as ever. A gentle flip midway through. Twenty artists in total, no more, no less. The music wanders through ambient drifts that evoke Norwegian fjords and calm clouds over islands, psychedelic excursions rooted in Tokyo’s lost forests, motorik pulses, industrial jazz fragments, electroacoustic meditations, desolate plains of techno shadow, and transmissions that feel beamed from some parallel broadcast tower.

No rush here. The pieces breathe. Some stretch beyond the usual borders. If you’re in a hurry, the dial is yours to turn. Otherwise, stay. Let the kettle whistle its own tune. Let the room settle around you.

We open with the first of five exclusive tracks for the episode. This one from Revbjelde and the piece Non Chion – from that Extracellular promo CD on Buried Treasure. Berkshire’s particular strain of industrial jazz psych motorik folk, with guests adding their edges; here it’s a slow uncoiling, fragments of voice and rhythm that feel unearthed from some forgotten field recording.

Next, WEALDHAM with Spectral Points – self-released on Bandcamp. Ghostly electronics, lo-fi edges meeting something almost jazzy and indie, spectral in the truest sense, points of light flickering in the undergrowth.

Then Harry Towell aka Glåsbird, Kaldsår – from the Islas Calm Cloud compilation on Whitelabrecs. Modern classical ambient, electroacoustic, a frozen landscape thawing very slowly, evoking those northern Scandinavian waters and quiet inlets.

Next a new artist for me. Kikagaku Moyo with Kodama – from Forest of Lost Children on Guruguru Brain. Tokyo psychedelic rock, acid folk with raga undertows and krautrock momentum; this one carries the weight of ancient trees and childlike discovery, hypnotic and unhurried.

Then German artist, Tobias Lorsbach, aka, Logic Moon, Under The Blue – also from Islas Calm Cloud on Whitelabrecs. Deep, patient ambient layers, blue horizons stretching out, calm as the title suggests.

Now the amazing Dennis Huddleston, or, 36 as you probably know him, with Imagine The Truth – from Threewave on Past Inside The Present. Vast, immersive drone and ambient textures, truth imagined in slow-motion swells.

Now Tim Gilbert, as, Fields of Few, with a short entry, Northern Light Fading – from Sines Signals on Triplicate Records. Fading auroral glows translated into electronic signals, northern skies captured in synth and reverb.

Next the second of five exclusives from Saratoga Springs based David Aimone, Formless Statement – from Eulogy for an American Dream. Dropping on the 20 February via channel favourite label Passed Recordings. A eulogy delivered in abstract, formless shapes, poignant and drifting.

Here is another short one and an exclusive from Dolly Dolly & Fogroom with Clock Tower – again from that Extracellular promo on Buried Treasure. Avant-garde abstraction, perhaps clockwork mechanics wound down to a whisper, hip-swinging in strange time.
This will be a vinyl launch will be at the Rising Sun Arts Centre, Reading, Berks. On Sat 28th Feb – 7.30pm to 11pm. Get you tickets now.

UK based, Martin Archer led jazz collective, Orchestra Of The Upper Atmosphere, and the fourth exclusive in the form of, Moonride – from their up coming release on Discus Music. Due out 30th January. Cosmic jazz orbits, upper atmosphere drifts where melody and improvisation meet the void.

And now another channel champion in the form of Bucla easel star Giulio Fontana known as, Ogle, Walking Robots – from Dystopian Leisure on Mahorka. Robotic gait in a leisure dystopia, electronic pulses that walk with mechanical melancholy.

Here’s one of my all time top artists. Finlands finest, Jimi Tenor Band, Shine All Night featuring Florence Adooni – from the Bureau B 2025 compilation on Bureau B. Afro-futurist grooves, shining through the night with soulful brass and voices.

Now the final track before the flip from the wonderful Polish artist, Wojciech Golczewski, Transmission 21 – from End of Transmission 3 on French label Data Airlines. Synth transmissions, data streams ending in quiet dissolution.

Opening the B side is the second Bucla artist and amazing Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, I Miss The Way You Swim – from Thoughts on the Future on a couple of places. One of them being the Nettwerk label. Buchla explorations, missing the fluid motion, modular sighs and swells.

Now we head th New Zealand and, Liam Todd, as, ZHERAV, NAJA – from Naja Bazaar on London legends Batov Records. Bazaar echoes, middle eastern motifs twisted into contemporary electronic forms.

Now Toronto-based, Jordan Czamanski or, Jordan GCZ, I Said What I Said – from The Second Circle compilation on Italian label Neroli Records. Direct, unapologetic house rhythms, spoken truths over the beat.

Next Oslo based, Mikkel Haraldstad, better known as, Mikkel Rev, Desolate Plains – from the 2025 label compilation mixed by todos, on A Strangely Isolated Place. Wide, empty landscapes in techno guise, desolate yet compelling.

And now Portland based label curator Eric Angelo Bessel, Double Helix – from Mirror at Night on his Lore City Music label. Spiralling structures, night mirrors reflecting genetic twists in sound.

The penultimate track of episode 171 comes from Russian artist Aleksander Tochilkin who we know as Koett, Lost Time – from Lost Time pre-release, which is an odd title for an EP that was released in 2013 on Dutch label Atomnation. Time slipping away, recaptured in melancholic electronic memory.

And finally on the episode I present to you, the fifth exclusive from Isle of Lewis based, Ali Murray or The Lonely Bell, Elsewhere – from his upcoming release Time Lost. Preorder on the Oscaron label from the 30 January. Tones ringing from somewhere distant, elsewhere indeed.
And as the reels slow and the tape begins to slacken, a few words before the silence returns. Thanks for staying with it. These transmissions aren’t built for playlists or quick scrolls. They’re for those who still let music occupy real time. Support the artists where you can – Bandcamp pages, labels, whatever small act keeps the chain intact. Whisper their names if you like; the void listens sometimes.
This episode streams on Mixcloud, free for a week as usual. Links, credits, the full tracklist – all at trevor.se and in the comments. Say something there if the mood takes you. Or say nothing. Either way suits.
Until the next time the cassette turns over – stay resonant.
Here is The Lonely Bell, Elsewhere, cheerio…

From London to Melbourne, Toronto to Beirut, these transmissions stretch across places and moods, shaping a library of resonance.
