Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 287

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-287/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.

If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A dynamic, slightly nocturnal ambient and experimental journey through elephant rhythms, fractured breakbeats, quiet shade, and slowly fading stars.
Side A moves from South Indian folk-electronic dance and spare war circuits into darkstep fractures, live trio gravity, breath stuck in buffer, and compact chip energy. Side B opens across inland oceans and modular comfort, then rises through live fire, soul-deep space, red-kite aerials, and ends as the stars go out one by one.
Overall mood: Textured, restless, and quietly expansive — blending rhythmic intensity with reflective stillness and cosmic closure. Perfect for late-night listening, focused immersion, or following the slow turning of the tape.

The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.

The tape unspools its visions.

00:00:00 Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance
An elephant dance unfolds through South Indian folk colours and electronic drums. Sunken Cages – Elephant Dance. Dark synths, drones and industrial textures resynthesize into deconstructed club motion. Voices and remixes from across the globe rise as fire brought to the rhythm.
00:10:51 Alex Ringess – War
Minimal circuits pulse under the title of war. Alex Ringess – War. Three or four instruments hold the space. Project files from Analog Abstractions carry the same mix forward in spare luminous lines.
00:17:50 Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix)
Darkstep breakbeats fracture and reform. Captive Portal – This minus five (Protuberance darkstep remix). Lush pads from oldschool rave meet atmospheric drum and bass and experimental breaks, each layer covering another band of the spectrum.
00:23:46 Slate Trio – BS7
Guitar, drums and bass lock into BS7. Slate Trio – Neil Smith, Matthew Jones, Alex Heane. Three voices move together in live trio gravity.
00:33:15 Substak – Breath stuck in buffer
Sunlight retreats while long shadows dance at the base of a tree. Substak – Breath stuck in buffer. Memories linger among colours that wait for morning. Quiet things sleep in the cradle of shade.
00:36:46 Danny Playamaqui – Chip
Chip fragments scatter across broken beats and saboteur sweetness. Danny Playamaqui – Chip. Noise, basses, synths and hall atmospheres pack into compact X4 motion, Plaza del Sol energy glowing in the mix.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:43:46 Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull
A seagull rides above a hidden inland ocean. Eric Angelo Bessel – Seagull. Familiar roads, weathered shorelines and forgotten infrastructure reveal unexpected connections. Eighteen compositions invite wandering among landmarks that have always waited beyond recognition.
00:47:09 Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort
Comfort arrives through modular skin and tape loops. Ricardo M. Peixoto – comfort. Field recordings and generative chaos balance harmony with rhythm. Silence is sculpted into shared sonic connections.
00:54:57 Anam Gu Anam – Feu
Fire opens in live improvised heat. Anam Gu Anam – Feu. Electronica, ambient and experimental palettes capture a unique moment. Each take remains a personal explorative soundscape.
01:01:51 John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep
Soul deep space drifts through shifting forms. John Louis Kluck – Soul Deep. Soft pulses and distant echoes hover like quiet constellations, sculpting weightless horizons.
01:08:26 CRSY – red kite aerial
A red kite hangs in aerial current. CRSY – red kite aerial. Wings cut slow circles through open sky.
01:10:52 Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out
Stars go out one by one as the tides of time come in. Grey Malkin – One By One, The Stars Are Slowly Going Out. A bridge of light leaps from earth to the unknown shore. Arthur Machen’s gulf yawns, then spans.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, release date 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?
Send entries to trevlad@gmail.com
Include artist name, track name, and a link to other work.
Deadline: 24 September.

This has been The Virtual Cassette Library, episode 286.
Travel safely between the tracks.
I’ll meet you on the other side of the next spool.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 283

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-283/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 283. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.

The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,113 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
A luminous, cyclical ambient journey through growth, presence, and quiet residual signals.
Side A moves from synthesizer motivation and passionflower florescence into thunderous self-declaration, whimsical DNA colours, whispering forests, and noctilucent evening light. Side B drifts through reconstructed Vietnamese microcosms, Windham Hill shadows, rain-soaked baseline drift, honey-warm communal jazz, silent Wardenclyffe towers, and ends with a dark horse moving through open fields.
Overall mood: Contemplative, organic, and gently radiant — full of cycles of growth, soft illumination, and quiet architectural presence. Perfect for deep listening, reflective evenings, or following the continuous unfolding of sound.
The tape unspools its visions.

00:00:00 Marc Melià – Cycle of Motivation
Synthesizer circuitry opens into quiet luminous beauty. Marc Melià – Cycle of Motivation. Ambient and experimental tones sculpt the open spaces between notes into a melodic tapestry. Shared sonic connections rise in serene sequential layers across the field of reflection.
00:04:36 KiF Productions – Florescence
A passionflower climbs through stages of growth in soft plant light. KiF Productions – Florescence. Secret seeds wait in darkness before the first stir of movement. Vines reach toward open light, drinking and climbing until full bloom arrives in pollination dreams. Fruiting returns the cycle to earth in patient unfolding motion.
00:09:22 Le Morte d’Abby – That I Am
Thunder and lightning gather around the declaration of presence. Le Morte d’Abby – That I Am. Lush chords whoosh into existence while arpeggios and percussive energy expand across the surface. The entire piece rises in spiritual comfort and unbridled radiant motion.
00:15:51 Daily Mail Comments Section – Estradiol Milkshake
A dream of new sound opens into whimsical smear-test colours. Daily Mail Comments Section – Estradiol Milkshake. Sonic DNA from shared lives drifts through the air, the surface expanding in inventive playful light.
00:17:27 Enofa – The Whispering Forest
A whispering forest surrounds a small modernist house in woodland setting. Enofa – The Whispering Forest. Acoustic and digital tones mesh across eighty minutes of personal vista. Ancient modernity rises through nature’s unstoppable force, the entire landscape holding claustrophobic and open power in steady motion.
00:20:57 The Green Kingdom – Noctilucent
Noctilucent light drifts across evening skies of soft piano and reverb-soaked guitar. The Green Kingdom – Noctilucent. Sampled textures and occasional synthesizer layers settle into calm airy space. The sounds open in dusky reflective presence.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.

00:24:10 Dexba – Hồ Bán Cạn Việt Nam
A quirky melody reconstructs outdoor nature while classical piano gives structure. Dexba – Hồ Bán Cạn Việt Nam. The entire microcosm expands in self-contained luminous motion.
00:28:51 Akira Film Script – The Shadow of Windham Hill
Shadows of Windham Hill open across bidirectional cycles of existence. Akira Film Script – The Shadow of Windham Hill. Life and death, memory and presence move together in exchange. The track looks backward and forward at once, finding beauty in endings and beginnings.
00:33:20 Logic Moon & Piscean Daydreams – Baseline Drift
Baseline drift carries the music of the spheres through rain-soaked cityscapes. Logic Moon & Piscean Daydreams – Baseline Drift. Vast drones and spectral textures rise with richly layered field recordings. Organic and synthetic boundaries blur across industrial ruins and desolate rural landscapes, the cosmos holding hidden resonance.
00:36:52 Hill Collective – A House Is A Home Like Honey
A house opens like honey in warm communal light. Hill Collective – A House Is A Home Like Honey. Spiritual jazz tones breathe through collective improvisation. Saxophone, flute, piano, double bass and congas expand in earthy shared motion, the ensemble generating warmth and illumination together.
00:44:41 Paul Beaudoin – Wardenclyffe (Nothing returned)
Wardenclyffe towers stand in quiet residual signal. Paul Beaudoin – Wardenclyffe (Nothing returned). Granular field recordings and low-voltage processes form disrupted circuits. Tone, breath and resonance hum at the threshold of presence, the architecture listening to what remains.
00:49:21 Asha Patera – A Dark Horse
A dark horse moves through open sonic fields. Asha Patera – A Dark Horse. The landscape expands in steady luminous presence.
The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

This has been The Virtual Cassette Library, episode 283.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 274

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-274/

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 274. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A textured, slightly nocturnal ambient journey through quiet intensity, natural shifts, and digital calm.
Side A moves from prowling glass and sea changes into moonlight grass, barrel flowers, reduced beats, and deep geological time. Side B drifts through wormeries, rushing ascent, liquid amber circles, grid edges, digital meditation, and ends on an old road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and gently dynamic — blending organic warmth with subtle tension and quiet modern stillness. Perfect for late-evening listening, deep focus, or peaceful immersion.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,101 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear the sprawling and inventive side-project of Suncastle’s George Evans and Kristofer Thomas aka Paris Texas who together call themselves Glass Roots. Yes it’s an older release from 2020 but as it’s on Triplicate records it means that it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp. Which suits my unimployed world. Anyway the track is a stomping Idm piece titled “Panther Loud” from the album “The Idiot”. Go grab it for as little as you can.
Then a dose of slapped bass in a wonderful track titled “Sea Change” by friend of the shows Emily Sobool, aka Socool who has teamed up with Paul Griffin and released a collection of tunes under the name “Dreams & Riddles”
Next, another team up with Elizabeth Joan Kelly aka Orca and David Rodriguez aka Attack! with a highly original piece titled “Grass In The Moonlight” which is a great name so I think I’ll title this episode after it. It’s from a release out on the Mortality Tables label called, yes “Grass In The Moonlight”.
This will be followed by, would you believe it?, another duo in the form of Ali O’May and Frazer Brown as Dohnavùr and a captivating synth adventure titled “Flowers In The Barrel” from their latest release “We Owe Each Other Everything” which you can get on vinyl from that Castles In Space that’s in everyones library.
After that, not a another duo, o no, a Leeds based act of unknown numbers. Active between 1993-1994 called Adel Music Club. You’ll be treated to some sweet drum breaks and bongos or highly tuned congas in the track titled “Break Beats Nothing” from the release called “Golden Acres” out on the channel supporting FRBH Recordings.
Closing Side A is of course another duo. A name all of you know and are probably a bit tired of after this release. It is of course Boards of Canada with the wonderfully wobbly track “Deep Time” from their latest gem “Inferno”. That’s on vinyl in my collection and is available through Warp Records.
But first, to set the vibe: Glass Roots and Panther Loud.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear a founder of Triplicate Records, Mr. Michael Southard aka Time Rival and an exclusive, I dare say, from his Bandcamp subscription library titled “Rush Up” from the album “stay safe out there“ which has an official release on the 2nd of October.
Then, speaking of Triplicate Records and their amazing back catalogue I’m playing Belial Pelegrim and an enchanting track titled “Circle of Liquid Ambers”. from the 2020 album “Torus”.
Next. No episode of TVCL would be complete without a dose of modular tweakings. We head to another channel supporting label Paris based Hylé Tapes and the artist Aurel Val with the track “Grid’s End” from the album “Mods-1”. Go grab one of the 7 remaining cassettes on Hylé Tapes.
Near the end we travel to Genoa, Italy with a downtempo summer vibe piece by artist Brioskj titled “Digital Meditation” from the EP The Persuaders! And that’s another Name Your Price release from Finlands finest label: Kahvi Collective.
And finally, a real exclusive track from a true friend of the show. A gentleman fond of words and espicially dialects. Mr. Graham Thorpe who of course is better know as gribbles at least for now. Keep an eye out for upcoming stuff in his own name. Anyway I’m playing a Lemon Jelly flavoured track titled “Owd Roa (Part)” from an upcoming release titled “Agatewards” dropping on boutique label Yellowbelly Records on the 4th of September. Keep an eye out for that.
But first, another exclusive, that makes three for this episode! That deserves a subscription from someone out there does it not?
Anyway, this is an amazing piece of audio art by Imogen Haley Baker who calls herself Enofa, and a rather haunted track titled “The Wormery” from an album called “Small Modernist House in Woodland Setting” which was sent to me by the wonderful Dan Seville, who runs the equally wonderful Subexotic Records. That will be released on double LP black vinyl from the 14th of August. According to the blurb for this release, Imogen made close to a hundred different pieces of music. A lot of htem, she says, will probably stay on her hard drive for decades. Well if you’re listening Imogen, yoou could enter one in for my quiet figures compilation.
Anyway
Enjoy…

Side A
00:00:00 Glass Roots – Panther Loud
Bold, prowling ambient with glass-edged intensity and quiet predatory presence. Atmospheric and sleek.
00:08:06 Paul Griffin x Socool – Sea Change
Transformative, oceanic ambient with shifting tides and collaborative depth. Fluid and reflective.
00:11:25 Orca, Attack! – Grass In The Moonlight
Nocturnal, moonlit ambient with soft grass textures and quiet natural wonder. Serene and evocative.
00:14:18 Dohnavùr – Flowers in the Barrel
Stark, bittersweet ambient placing fragile blooms against hard containers. Poignant and restrained.
00:19:27 Adel Music Club – Break Beats Nothing
Playful, rhythmic ambient that reduces breaks to their quietest essence. Minimal and quirky.
00:21:09 Boards of Canada – Deep Time
Classic BoC deep-time haze with warped nostalgia and geological patience. Hypnotic and timeless.
Side B
00:28:01 Enofa – The Wormery
Earthy, composting ambient with slow organic breakdown and quiet soil life. Grounded and curious.
00:32:17 Time Rival – Rush Up
Urgent, ascending ambient with quickening motion and soft forward pull. Dynamic and hopeful.
00:35:00 Belial Pelegrim – Circle of Liquid Ambers
Warm, circular ambient with molten amber flow and elegant, looping beauty. Rich and immersive.
00:38:58 Aurel Val – Grid’s End
Precise, terminal ambient reaching the edge of structured space. Clean and contemplative.
00:41:04 Brioskj – Digital Meditation
Quiet, screen-soft ambient designed for digital stillness and soft focus. Calm and modern.
00:45:25 gribbles – Owd Roa (Part)
https://www.yellowbellyrecords.co.uk/
Regional, weathered ambient with old-road character and gentle English texture. Nostalgic and grounded.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, due 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 267

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-267/

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 267. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
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.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A stylish, cinematic journey through hauntology, Italian library grooves, cosmic jazz, and dusty intrigue.
Side A offers ceremonial nostalgia, Arabian adventure, 1970s modernism, and space-age elegance. Side B shifts into psychedelic funk, flowing calm, low-orbit jazz, conspiratorial dust, fiery intensity, and extraction drama.
Overall mood: Retro-cinematic, groovy, and atmospheric — blending playful sophistication with subtle mystery. Perfect for golden-hour listening, stylish drives, or immersive evening sessions.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 1 091 other shows whenever they like.
As a subscriber you also get access to my new series Veil Frequencies based on a fictional world I’ve created called The Resonant Veil Enclave. Each episode is around three hours and recorded from one of the floors of the 24 buildings in the veil. You can read about it on my Substack page. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
If I mention the labels Four Flies Records, ATA Records, Batov Records, Buried Treasure or Sonor Music Editions you’ll instantly get the vibe for this episode. A cinematic journey through hauntology, Italian library grooves, cosmic jazz, and dusty intrigue.
On this TVCL episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by the hypnotic sequencing of Italian artist Giuliano Sorgini, in the track “Arabian Safari” from the 7” single titled “Savana Selvaggia” available through Four Flies Records.
Followed by friends of the show and one of my all time favourite outfits “The Twelve Hour Foundation” and the super recognisable retro moog sounds of their track “Roissy 1977” which is taken from the final Undulating Waters compilation, and Woodford Halses 100th release. Get it.
Then Sarnia, Ontario based “EKT” with a groovy synth outing in the piece “Pioneer Plaque” from a 32 track album called “Pura Vida” A fascinating release where almost all the tracks have super psychedelic videos. The album is also free to anyone who sends a screenshot or photo proof of them deleting Spotify and/or any social media app.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Eric Wetherell and the theme from the 1975 HTV series “Sky”. The shortest track of the episode at just 47 seconds. Suggestive and eerie. From the well sold out Album “Sky” on the Buried Treasure label.
Finishing off the first half, we go one year earlier with a track by Milan based Barigozzi Group and a bouncing library jazz track complete with cowbell from 1974 titled “Violet Lips” from the album Woman’s Colours where all the track names are a specific colour combined with a different part of the body.
But first, to set the vibe is the outstanding Jim Jupp aka Belbury Poly and the psychedelic organ infused track “Scarlet Ceremony” from his album “The Owl’s Map” which was originally released back in 2006 on the Ghost Box label.
Now 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.

Welcome sonic travellers to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear Lee Spreadbury better known as Gurulee and his wonderfully nostalgic prog-fusion jazz waltz infected track “Flo” from the EP “Into the Light” which is recorded at ATA Studios.
Followed by a group of artists that have probably sneaked their way into this episode in a few ways. Here is Leeds based, Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble, with the downtempo, sexy, flute injected, library piece titled “Low Orbit” from the album “The Kármán Line” which is out on ATA Records.
After that Nitzan Dana also known as Islands On Tape with a downtempo, hypnotic, cinematic and rimshot heavy piece “Dust Conspiracy” from the EP of the same name. Dropping October 16th on Batov Records.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of the psychedelic jazz-funk grooves of Italys Atabasca and the track “Hell Dorado”. Grab one of the last vinyls of the self titled album on Killer Grooves Records.
Finishing us off is the label that is also a band, Leeds based, “ATA Records” with a party lifter complete with handclaps and bongos in the track, “The Galata Extraction” from the must have album “The Library Archive Vol. 4”
But first, Miles Newbold who, I believe is the entire ensemble of The Natural Yogurt Band, with the busy, neo-library, psychedelic track titled “On The Other Side”. Get a vinyl copy of the album “Parasol” from Sonor Music Editions. Enjoy…

Side A
00:00:00 Belbury Poly – Scarlet Ceremony
Hauntological library-inspired ambient with ceremonial warmth and scarlet, nostalgic glow. Whimsical and atmospheric.
00:10:33 Giuliano Sorgini – Arabian Safari
Exotic, cinematic Italian library music with desert adventure, swirling percussion, and 70s flair. Groovy and transportive.
00:12:34 The Twelve Hour Foundation – Roissy 1977
Retro-futurist ambient evoking 1970s airport modernism with sleek, institutional charm. Nostalgic and cool.
00:16:24 EKT – Pioneer Plaque
Space-age synth inspired by the Voyager plaque, with cosmic messages and interstellar wonder. Thoughtful and expansive.
00:19:06 Eric Wetherell – Sky – Main Theme
Classic library theme with soaring, open-sky melodies and bright, optimistic orchestration. Uplifting and cinematic.
00:19:51 Barigozzi Group – Violet Lips
Smooth, sensual Italian library jazz with violet-hued elegance and sophisticated grooves. Stylish and alluring.
Side B
00:25:05 The Natural Yogurt Band – On The Other Side
Psychedelic, organic funk-jazz with warm, other-side curiosity and playful analogue textures. Groovy and adventurous.
00:28:31 Gurulee – Flo
Flowing, fluid prog fusion with gentle movement and soft, continuous motion. Hypnotic and serene.
00:32:09 Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble – Low Orbit
Cosmic jazz with low-orbit float, spacey improvisation, and interstellar cool. Expansive and swinging.
00:38:00 Islands On Tape – Dust Conspiracy
Dusty, conspiratorial psychedelic groove with tape-worn textures and mysterious, island isolation. Atmospheric and intriguing.
00:40:32 Atabasca – Hell Dorado
Dark, gold-rush cinema with hellish heat and dorado intensity. Dramatic and fiery.
00:45:37 ATA Records – The Galata Extraction
Cinematic extraction-themed ambient with Galata intrigue and tense, narrative drive. Moody and evocative.

Also in the works, the latest compilation titled Quiet Figures which will be released September 26.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that trigger a creative thought?

Send entries to trevlad@gmail.com

Include artist name, track name and link to other work.
Tracks due by September 24.

All the best,
Trevor

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-260/

For some reason I can no longer embed the shows here

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 260. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
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.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A groovy, cinematic, and eclectic journey blending indie folk introspection, global psychedelic funk, French electronic cool, post-rock elegance, and atmospheric psychedelia.
Side A cruises through cosmic weight, mechanical playfulness, and sun-drenched grooves. Side B percolates with jazzy structures, vaporous textures, and sleek professionalism before ending on a pointed, trippy note.
Overall mood: Stylish, nostalgic, and transportive with a strong retro-cinematic flair—warm, hypnotic, and playfully sophisticated. Perfect for golden-hour drives, late-night listening, or stylish background grooves.
I’ve gone back to doing more podcast style episodes but I’ll do all the talking now in the intro as I’ve put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. There is just one break halfway through the episode to give the “virtual cassette” title a meaning. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few subscribers who get to enjoy the 260 episodes plus the 822 other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for 3 quid. It used to be a coffee.
This episode is inspired by the key of G minor and based on the amazing retro synth runs of “A Study In Vapors” by “Bluetech” from a release that’s in my top 5 of the year so far “Petite Constellations”.
Every tenth episode I do a best of show. So all these tracks have probably been featured by me over the years and have a special place, for me, in some way. On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Berlin based legends To Rococo Rot with a track simply called “cars”. Originally released on the 1999 album “The Amateur View” which should be in everyone’s collection.
Naples based group Psyché grab our hips with “Cumbia Mahàre” from their debut Four Flies Records, self titled, 2023 release.
Then a trio that have infected me over the past few years, Khruangbin, here joined by the vocal stylings of Leon Bridges in the track “Chocolate Hills” from their 2022 EP Texas Moon.
After that Vincent Taeger aka Tiger Tigre together with, well, himself, in the track “Sport Mécanique” which takes me back to my childhood. My parents watch all sports on tv and this just puts me in that world of 80s sports jingles. It’s taken from the compilation album “ERR REC Library Vol.4 Physical Activity” from 2023.
Ending the A side is the Los Angeles, California based roots reggae infected Pachy García aka Pachyman and the track “Sunset Sound” from the album “The Return of…” released in 2021.
Starting off Side B with Vienna, Austria based synth maestro Dorian Concept and the track “Eigendynamik (Elevator Version)” from the 2020 album “The Jitters”.
Followed by my favourite Stockholm based artist of recent years Joel Danell better known as Sven Wunder. Here with the piece “Pop-Jazz Structures”. Every one of Joels tracks puts me in a happy space. This is from his 2023 album “Late Again”.
Then anyone who has followed the channel knows that I love odd time signatures and the track “Percolator” is in 5/8 and is by the one of a kind originals Stereolab. Taken from the 2025 album “Emperor Tomato Ketchup”.
This leads into the featured Seattle, Washington based, Evan Bartholomew, better known as, Bluetech track “A Study In Vapors”.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of one of my all time go to artists Air with the track “Les Professionnels” from their debut 1997 EP Premiers Symptômes.
Finishing us off is Salvia Plath aka RUN DMT with nostalgic samples over a hypnotic acoustic guitar line in the track “Money” from the 2009 album BONG VOYAGE.
But first, to set the vibe is New Zealand based folk tinged artist whose voice just grips me Aldous Harding with the song “Weight of the Planets” from her fantastic third album “Designer” from 2019.
Labels to be mentioned are 4AD UK, City Slang, Four Flies Records, Dead Oceans, ERR REC, ATO, Brainfeeder, Piano Piano Records, Warp Records, Behind The Sky Music, DiN and Virgin Records.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 235

Based on the track “Oceanic” by “Fields of Few” from the compilation album “Music for Condensation”.
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 deep, introspective, and elemental ambient journey moving through water, inner worlds, decay, and vast landscapes.
Side A flows from oceanic vastness into personal fragility and emotional submersion. Side B shifts across desert expanses, tropical warmth, ghostly seas, and subterranean spaces before ending on gentle, cyclical calm.
Overall mood: Melancholic, immersive, and quietly contemplative with a strong sense of place and solitude. It feels like drifting slowly through different environments and emotional states — ideal for focused deep listening, meditation, or late-night reflection.
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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 208

Equal parts cosmic wonder, gentle unease, and deep relaxation. Ideal for late-night listening, focused immersion, or psychedelic headspace sessions.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 208 of the 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 “Night owl dub” by Dubberrookie from the upcoming compilation album “The Mystery of the Night” curated by yours truly. Shout out to all the artists so far to contribute to what’s looking to be a fantastic collection. Also a massive thank you to Rural District Lo-Fi Recording Project, Discus Music, Subexotic Records, Dubberrookie for sponsoring the channel with material.
An adventurous, psychedelic, and atmospheric journey through experimental electronics, cosmic jazz, hauntology, and deep dub.
Side A moves from playful lo-fi quirkiness and cerebral intensity into vast cosmic expanses, ancient drones, acid-tinged mysticism, and faded derelict nostalgia. Side B drifts into dreamy Japanese psych, precise minimalism, warm organic calm, and closes with smoky late-night dub.
Overall mood: Mysterious, expansive, and slightly mind-altering. It has a nocturnal, otherworldly feel — equal parts cosmic wonder, gentle unease, and deep relaxation. Ideal for late-night listening, focused immersion, or psychedelic headspace sessions.
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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 202

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 202 of the 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 “Café Frappé” by Bolbec. Available on the amazing library music inspired album “Foutu Félin”. Released May 8 on the wonderful channel supporting Batov Records.
This Mix is a vibrant, retro-flavoured journey through 70s library inspired music, cinematic funk, psychedelic grooves, and dusty Balearic electronics.
Side A moves from playful alpine funk and sunny Tahitian exotica into hypnotic desert psych and cruising electronic energy. Side B shifts into raw dusty beats, warped library psychedelia, Ethiopian-jazz tension, and motorik drive before closing on a haunting ambient note.
Overall mood: Sunny, groovy, slightly sleazy, and cinematic with strong 70s/80s library nostalgia. Playful yet atmospheric — perfect for warm evenings, road trips, or crate-digging sessions. Energetic in places but never loses its cool, hazy charm.
I’ve been getting loads of material during the week so I’ve decided to add this segment called “Shout outs from The Inbox”
Which go to Dave Clarkson, Sick Robot, Exit Chamber, Audio Obscura, Stray Wool and Linear North. As well as channel supporting labels Batov Records, Castles in Space, See Blue Audio, Mortality Tables, Clay Pipe Music, Discus Music, whitelabrecs and Synonym Music. Also promotional champions fonodroom and free album codes.
This episode contains music from Castle If, HDRF, Mike Dickinson, Piero Umiliani, Pulselovers and many more.

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.
Please, if you can, subscribe — even if it’s just for a month. I put in the work you could buy me the equivalent of 18% of a coffee. As it stands I’m 1 subscriber short of myself or the artists getting anything.

Right Balance Mirage

Music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that appears somewhere inside the set itself. This episode titled Right Balance Mirage is based on the track You Are On The Right Track by Danalogue, from the album Teleportations, which comes out on May 29 via the channel champion label Castles In Space. 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.
Right then… here we go.
