Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 164
7 January 2026

Virtual 90 minute mixtapes for the sonically adventurous. 30 artists, two 45 minute sets. A spoken intro followed by music only show. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
“Hello, Trevor here, and this is episode one‑six‑four of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Retain Happier Obeyed—which, as usual, is both the track you’re hearing underneath and a location you can find on a map, if you’re the sort who enjoys chasing coordinates on What3Words.
We’ve got ninety minutes ahead—two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know, some you won’t, and that’s half the fun.
On the A side there’s an exclusive by Foster Neville titled, Mow Cop, from the album, Through Lands Of Ghosts. Dropping on the 16th of January via Subexotic Records.
On the B side there’s a sort of exclusive by Hendekagon. Who’ve done a magical soundtrack to accompany the book Die Verschiebung der Zeit (The shift in time) by Corina Retzlaff out on Adventurous Music.
Also the track, Magical Interval, by John Haughey & Tarotplane is from their up coming Woodford Halse release called, WF 98 – Errata.
Now then, starting back on episode 156, there’s a little cipher game running through the series. Each episode, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten episodes, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ll get it right.
The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it.
So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.”

Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library Listeners Choice 01
The listener who answered the call for this special episode is Steve Browne. Who suggested John Haughey who this entire mix is based upon. Steve and I both discovered John through the now, sadly defunct, Werra Foxma label, curated by the wonderfully charming Frazer Brown and his better half I believe. John Haughey hails from Craigavon, Northern Ireland and has also released works with one of my favourite labels Waxing Crescent Records. Check them out on Band Camp they are Name Your Price gems.
Sponsoring labels: Mahorka, Projekt Records, and, ARCHIVES.
Sponsoring artists: Marius Leicht, The Metamorph, and, Krakenkraft.
The rest of the show is filled with recent finds and releases.
Shoutouts to passengers: Otis and aeon music..
