Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 308
Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another 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 between-worlds ambient journey through vanished lanes, quiet trees, and maps that keep leaving the paper.
Side A walks you home along a Lincolnshire lane that no longer exists, docks in a corridor of light, holds its breath beneath Yiddish trees, answers every name water has ever been given, climbs an Atlas ascent through drowned architecture, and posts a wet summer postcard from Koblenz. Side B decides the right thing is just to leave, sits at a hummingbird campfire, hums the normal order of things after midnight, names an uncatalogued creature, paints the moon with earthshine, and ends on an atlas of shifting clouds.
Overall mood: Melancholic, luminous, and quietly migratory — full of Passed Oceans, analog weight, and weather with no name in the rear-view. Perfect for late listening, leaving rooms gently, or sitting still while the tide rearranges the map.
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.

Aka Eric Allietta. From the album “Inner Worlds”.

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 281. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
A quiet, luminous ambient journey through fog, silence, emergence, and dual light.
Side A drifts from museum fog and deep indigo silence into larval longing, early string tones, perpetual candle mornings, and distant postcard transmissions. Side B opens across bonnie banks and underwater echolocation into temple soundscapes, interplanetary stillness, dismal radiance, and mirrored dual forms.
Overall mood: Contemplative, tender, and gently expansive — full of soft emergence, reflective depth, and quiet shared presence. Perfect for deep listening, early mornings, or peaceful solitude.
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.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,108 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.
Fog drifts in thick luminous layers across open museum halls. Simon Cacheux – Fog. Field recordings and synthesized tones rise with shakuhachi breath and cymbal resonance. The entire landscape holds the quiet presence of an event already unfolding, the air filled with contemplative motion.
Silence expands through deep indigo space. Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken & Henrik Meierkord – Silence In The Dark. Cello tones stretch into long translucent ribbons while spoken words dissolve into the surrounding drones. Texture and language move together in measured waves, the whole field opening into reflective presence.
Larval forms glow in soft emerging light. Florigenix – larval longing. Ambient and experimental tones sculpt the open spaces between notes into a melodic tapestry. Shared sonic connections rise in serene sequential layers, each one expanding the quiet field of reflection.
A single tone unfolds across violin and viola strings. Aki Yli-Salomäki & Kreeta-Julia Heikkilä – Liian varhain. Subtle synthesizer textures rise around the layered strings in slow structures. Resonance and timbre move in quiet dialogue, the entire space holding acoustic closeness and gentle emergence.
Perpetual mornings open in soft candle-coloured light. Spirituals – Perpetual Mornings. Pedal steel and acoustic guitars drift with analog and virtual synths, vibraphone, cymbals, percussion, voice memos and field recordings. Each spontaneous composition rises as a glowing candle through the open air.
A postcard arrives carrying distant guitar tones and field-recorded air. Oberlin – Postcard #4. A Fernandes Telecaster voice moves through open landscape sounds recorded in May light, the whole surface expanding in quiet transmission.
The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.
Bonnie banks stretch under soft folk-derived ambient skies. Arboresque – The Bonnie Banks. Traditional ballad imagery opens into new sonic forms. The entire field rises as a tribute landscape of shared creation flowing toward open environmental light.
Echolocation pulses move through dense underwater corridors. Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster – Echolocation. Sonic signals expand in mapping waves, each one revealing new luminous territories of shared presence.
A temple forms in dark sound. boycalledcrow – temple. Heavier beats and dub-inflected soundscapes rise around alien phenomena and personal memory. The entire space opens in immersive motion through grief-shaped and expansive fields.
Interplanetary time stretches across sparse electronic textures. TheAdelaidean – Interplanetary Time (featuring Lauren Jones). E-bow drones and heavily processed ambient recordings carry a passive traveller through prolonged motion. Voices whisper at the edge of consciousness while fractured melodies echo from distant harmonic turns, the whole journey unfolding in layered stillness.
Dismal radiance pours through liminal corridors of flowing memory. Philippe Blache – Through The Dismal Radiance. Meandering immersive textures and high emotional tones open into imaginary territories. The entire headspace expands in careful melancholic repetition and profound sonic depth.
Dual forms rise in mirrored light. Irène Blanc – Dual. Parallel tones move together across open space, each layer expanding the shared field in dual motion.
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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 264

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 264. 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 contemplative, atmospheric ambient journey through gravity, trapped moments, and fiery elements.
Side A drifts from weightless lapses and arcane nights into sinister awakenings, amber preservation, and circular comfort. Side B shifts through nostalgic postcards, patterned cosiness, collaborative warmth, and ends on flame and dated reflection.
Overall mood: Introspective, melancholic, and quietly wondrous with a blend of darkness and gentle warmth. Perfect for deep listening, late-night reflection, or peaceful immersion.
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 264 episodes as well as the 820 plus 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 from the 24 buildings in the veil. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by the trio of John Crombie, Christopher Innes, and Damiano Verna who together call themselves Arcane Trickster. I’ve chosen their latest single titled “Dead Of Night” which has just been released on Greek label Cosmicleaf Records.
This is followed by the track “Sinister Awakening” by Mantris from an album to get lost in titled “Echoes Of The Silver Screen” out on Bulgaria’s finest Mahorka label.
After that Edinburgh based modular artist Exit Chamber with the soothing piece “Trapped In The Amber Of This Moment” from the release “I Have Lied To You The Best I Can” which features remix work by some other channel friends including Asha Patera, Ed Herbers and Everyday Dust. Grab a digital copy on the Passed Recordings label.
The penultimate track of the first side of this virtual cassette is by French artist Anthony Elfort aka Toàn and the enchanting track “DEL 3” from the album titled “Solitarium” out on the fantastic whitelabrecs label.
Finishing off the first half is a track from the album Quieter by Robot Koch under his moniker Foam and Sand with a mix of analog synthesizers, live vibraphone, chimes, and bells in “Circle 62”. Get it at Jogging House curated label Seil Records.
But first, to set the vibe is Athens-based artist Kostas Staikos, better known as Substak with a deep and dark almost 15 minute piece titled “Gravity Lapse” which was made for Drone Day 2026 on grey clay radio.
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 to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear an artist I know nothing about except they are on the fantastic Passed Recordings 31 track compilation album 130.81. Here is Poloma with minimalist piece “Calico”.
Also an exclusive track in the collaboration of ambient giants David Cordero & Aiko Takahashi with the piano piece “Arzino” from their upcoming album “Night’s End” which will be available through the wonderful Home Normal label from the 24th of July.
After that a master of sunset music, Mark Barrott, with the track “Variation (I)” from the album “The Exit Diaries” and that’s out on the Anjunachill label.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of the shortest piece of the show clocking in at just 1:31 seconds but showing the amazing sound of Hannah Peel in the track “All They Had Was Fire” from the film soundtrack album Underland, and that’s out on the Rivertones label.
Finishing us off is Hylé Tapes curator Richard Francés with some minimalistic drone bliss in the track “11 Février 2024” from the album Afterwork III (Février 2024).
But first hailing from Koblenz, Germany, Oberlin with his Fender Telecaster and field-recordings on the track “Postcard #7” from the album Ambient Postcards, Enjoy…

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.
Side A
00:00:00 Edward Givens – Somber Meditation
A deeply introspective and solemn ambient piece with minimalist piano and subtle atmospheric layers. It creates a contemplative, almost sacred space for quiet reflection.
00:06:04 Talkdemonic – Two Weeks
Cinematic ambient/post-rock from Kevin O’Connor. Driving yet melodic rhythms and evocative textures build a sense of emotional urgency and forward motion.
00:07:32 Ghostloop – Wired dialogue
Minimal, melodic drone ambient with gentle, interconnected layers. It feels like a quiet conversation between electronic voices—intimate, thoughtful, and unfolding in real time.
00:11:37 Spheruleus – Olympus Days
Warm, mythic ambient from The Lost Catalogue. Glowing drones and celestial textures evoke sunlit marble ruins and timeless, god-like serenity.
00:14:30 Silence & The Unwinking Minds – Conjure
Textural, immersive ambient blending lush electronics with gritty, tape-saturated edges. A slow invocation that conjures unexpected beauty from tension and shadow.
00:17:45 36 – Symmetry Systems (Indigo)
Elegant, crystalline ambient from Dennis Huddleston. Perfectly balanced harmonic layers in deep indigo hues create a sense of infinite symmetry and emotional clarity.
00:20:04 HDRF – Tenebris
Dark, mysterious ambient exploring the enigma of night. Rich, shadowy drones and subtle nocturnal details draw you into the unknown.
00:23:43 Bahrambient, Retland, Kilometre Club – Cumulonimbus (Lauge Rework)
Expansive, cloud-like ambient with soaring, stormy grandeur. Lauge’s rework adds depth and movement to these towering, atmospheric formations.

Intriguing, paradox-laden ambient with unique sonic character. Dense yet spacious, it rewards deep listening with hidden details and shifting perspectives.
00:34:50 Binaural Space – Artificial Storm
Immersive, spatial ambient simulating a manufactured tempest. Binaural recording techniques place you inside swirling winds and electric tension.
00:37:15 Oberlin – (It Is A) Taboo
Raw, underground ambient/electronic exploration. Bold and slightly transgressive textures push boundaries in a hypnotic, session-style recording.
00:46:51 Ed Herbers – Calculated Risk

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.
This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-nine-two.
We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous.
But really it’s just me and the frequencies in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets we exist.
Stream us free for seven days on Mixcloud.
The background track you’re hearing is available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11 on Bandcamp. These episodes are sonic journeys with metaphysical flips at the halfway mark—perfect for long walks, mental wanders, or quiet moments alone with the universe.
Shout out to jungleangelo, my latest follower. If you dig glitchy IDM, you should really check out his Trainsporting series here on Mixcloud.
We’re bunching it tonight—three transmissions at a time. Like weird little dreams stitched into the set. No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.
This episode is broadcasting from Reaction Agenda Member.
Up first, three transmissions to ease us in.
We start with Solar 76 and the track Drought, via Castles in Space imprint Lunar Module.
Next, Fragile X with The Cocktail Party Effect, self-released on their own Bandcamp.

And rounding it out: THE GAYE DEVICE – Neon Hymn To The Infinite, self-released on his Bandcamp.
That was THE GAYE DEVICE – Neon Hymn To The Infinite… before that Moray Newlands – The rope will bind the seven books at once… and earlier Subphotic with Nothing Changes.
Moving deeper now.
We have BUNKR – Circling the Monolith, from my own catalogue on Bandcamp.
Then the collaborative piece Brass Clouds, Fog Net, & Volcanic Pinnacles – Decompression (Nocturne) on Bathysphere Records.
And closing the trio: Sven Laux – Carlsen, released on Whitelab Records.
Here’s the final track of side A.

Outro
That’s the whole set.
You’ve been listening to… well, everything.
Thanks for floating here with me.
I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links and purchase paths are illuminated at trevor.se, on Trevor Lewis on Substack, and marked in the timeline like little glowing breadcrumbs.
If you’re still listening… you’re in the club.
No meetings. No rules. Just dust, frequencies and me.
Send files, confessions, whatever, to trevlad@gmail.com.
Send stories for Chord Confessions. I’ll read them in my sleep-voice.
See you in the next crack in the wall.
Cheerio…

///caravan.grew.vaccines.
Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at Episode 138 of The Virtual Cassette Library.
Caravan Grew Vaccines is the episodes subtitle, as well as the track you’re hearing in the background and it’s geographical location which I’ve filmed and can be experienced on YouTube.
I’m Trevor and I curate these 90-minute genre bending drifts through frequencies from around the globe. No commentary. No interruptions. Just pure sonic immersion. Two, 45 minute mixes, 15 tracks per side with a side change in the middle.
Picture the listening experience like being at a music festival where the artists play on a rotating stage. Each act is allotted time for their piece and as it ends the next act takes over rotating into view.
Styles for this episode range from IDM to neo classical, from ritual ambient to jazz-funk. The musical keys in focus are B major and G sharp minor, A flat minor.
This episode contains some household names like Greg Foat, Jogging House and Sven Wunder. Some friends of the channel like odd person, Henrik Meierkord and The British Stereo Collective, as well as some supporting labels like oscarson, moniker eggplant, ingrown records, whitelabrecs, mahorka and Cyclical Dreams. All the artists and labels are the soul of this show.
