Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 203

Pastoral, folk-tinged hauntology with warm analogue tones and gentle countryside feel.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 203 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 a continuation of my library mood at the moment.
Warm, intimate, slightly surreal, and gently psychedelic. Think golden-hour light, quiet wonder, and analogue comfort — perfect for relaxed listening, daydreaming, or late afternoon/evening wind-down. Soft, charming, and emotionally tender with a strong sense of nostalgic beauty.

If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
No breaks, just the music.

Alone on the Dance Floor 08

For those that dance to a different tune.

A place to let loose. A short break from the ambience that usually dominated the channel.

Back with another outing of Alone on the Dance Floor.

This series comes out whenever I can make the time to create them. Like all my shows.
I am not affiliated with any station and do not get paid for this work.
I rely entirely on labels and artists sending me material, an unquenchable thirst for sharing great sounds, a handful of Mixcloud subscribers and a few sales from Bandcamp.

Trev’s Virtual Café

Hey everyone… Trevor here, welcome.
I’ve always wanted to be a café DJ — you know, the kind who reads the room, feels the energy, and lets the music flow with whatever vibe the people bring in that day.
Life took me down so many beautiful roads, but this particular dream… well, it’s still waiting to come true.
So today, I’m bringing a little piece of that dream right here for you.
This is my series of café and lounge-flavoured sounds — smooth, soulful grooves made for chilling, for unwinding, for good conversations and even better silences.
Whether you’re sipping coffee, working on your laptop, curled up on the couch, or just needing a moment to breathe…
Let these tracks wrap around you like warm sunlight through the café window.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 190

04 April 2026

///healers.dominate.slices

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 you just crawled in through a crack in the wall.
This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-nine-zero.

We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous.
But really it’s just me and the frequencies arguing in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets I exist.

Stream free for seven days on Mixcloud.
Background track tonight available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11. 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.

Massive shout out to Iso Brown for spotlighting the channel — gave me about three hundred new followers and maybe one new listener. Also big love to my latest follower Alan Ranta, who’s recently done an astonishing 11 and half hour retro library mix.
Anyway
Headphones on.
Let time dissolve.
And let the frequencies claim you.

We’re bunching it tonight — four transmissions at a time. Like weird little dreams stitched into the set. No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.

Tonight’s episode is broadcasting from… healers.dominate.slices.
Eric Ericsonhallen — Event centre in Stockholm. Now it’s just a coordinate for whatever this episode is.

Let’s go.

FIRST CLUSTER

First — Apta with “Falter”. Manchester, UK,Dream-pop haze wrapped in post-punk bones.

Then Passepartout Duo — “From Belgrade”. Verona, Italy, Live-wire travelogue piece from their Pieces from Places series. Synth lines that feel like walking through the city.

Third — Pulselovers and “Timbral Awake”. Deep electronic drift from Doncaster, UK, textures that shift like light through old film stock. Via Woodford Halse.

And closing this one out: Maggie Nicols, Robert Mitchell & Alya Al Sultani — “Inner Sanctum”. Intimate, improvised vocal and piano ritual. Three voices weaving a small cathedral out of breath and keys. via Discus Music.

Here we go.

SECOND CLUSTER

Next bundle of four, fresh from the margins:

Italian artist Lorenzo Bracaloni aka Fallen — “This World is quickly Fading”. Fragile, dissolving sound that feels like the last light of an ending day. Via Bulgarias Mahorka label who I am guesting soon on their Planck Tones channel.

Then my own little transmission: Trevlad with “Retrial Twinge Memo”. Taken from the TVCL 10 vaults. A twinge of memory on retrial and a spot on the platform of my local train station.

Followed by Lorna Dune — “Void Coefficient”. Milwaukee, Wisconsin based, Sharp, precise electronic study from her Mosfet EP. Power flows and empty spaces.

And rounding it off: Hong Kong based Anita Tatlow & Runaway Horses with “lunar phase”. Gentle ambient vocal drift, like moonlight leaking through blinds. Via Echoes Blue Music.

Drift with me.

THIRD CLUSTER (pre-B Side)

Third cluster already. The night is getting loose.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard — “Doom City”. Melbourne, Australia, Microtonal chaos from Flying Microtonal Banana. The pollution gods are laughing. Via the p(doom) label.

Then Mark Ellery Griffiths with “Synthi Sequence A”. Pure UK synth archaeology. Sequences breathing through old EMS circuitry like ghosts in the machine.

FOURTH CLUSTER (B Side)

Alright. Four more transmissions bleeding through.

Adrian Lane — “Reach For The Horizon”. Warm, horizon-staring ambient. Via whitelabrecs.

Benge — “Four Forty Two”. Precise, machine-soul electronics.

Asheville, North Carolina based Spooqs — “Hygge (Demo)”. Cozy but slightly unhinged.

And Djrum — “Three Foxes Chasing Each Other”. Breakbeat mysticism in full flight. Via Houndstooth.

Side B is now live.

FIFTH CLUSTER

Fifth cluster. We’re deep in it now.

CIALYN — “Sun Childs”. Bright, glowing electronic lullaby from Lille, France

Aucuba Replica — “Noni”. Strange fruit, stranger frequencies. Via Secuencias Temporales.

Ori Kaplan & Lihu Melamed — “Shangri La”. Mystical, searching jazz-tinged wander. Via Batov Records.

And Psyché — “Sabir”. Hypnotic, ancient-future pulse. Via Four Flies Records.

Still with me?

FINAL CLUSTER

Last cluster. Final transmission before the static wins. A long and a short piece.

Frankfurt Am Main, Germany based Jogging House — “Parker”. Slow-burn ambient reflection. Via artist curated Seil Records.

And finally Los Angeles, California based Elijah Fox — “Glass House / Clear Pool”. Crystalline, watery piano and electronics.

That’s the whole set.

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.

If you’re still listening… you’re in the club.
No meetings. No rules. Just dust and frequencies.

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…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 189

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

03 April 2026

///votes.riddle.tuck

votes.riddle.tuck. Brams burgers – great burger joint. Now it’s just a coordinate for whatever this episode is.

Hey.  Welcome back… or maybe you just crawled in through a crack in the drywall. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-eight-nine. We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous, but really it’s just me and the frequencies arguing in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets I exist.
Headphones on. Let time dissolve. And let the frequencies claim you.
We’re bunching it tonight – four transmissions at a time, like weird little dreams stitched into the set. No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.

FIRST CLUSTER  Four signals crawling out of the high passes and the liberation fronts. Sonic-Soma – Kinnaur Calling – Cities and Memory, Nepal field recordings turned into sonic soma.  The Music Liberation Front Sweden – Astra Shambotica – Submarine Broadcasting, astral jazz revolution. Grosso Gadgetto – Quadrata Dodus Act 2 – Bulgarian label Mahorka, who might be the reason for me not doing these episodes for a few days. Keep an eye and ear out for future Planck Tone episodes I may be guesting. Willebrant – Dell – atmospheric drone from down under. Birds in the rain. A must.
 You just survived the first transmission: Sonic-Soma, The Music Liberation Front Sweden, Grosso Gadgetto, and Willebrant. The space between us is definitely thinner now.

SECOND CLUSTER  Brain shells cracking open, hits amended, voids flattered, dust explained. Zerfranzt – Hirnschale – which means skull or, the nicer translation of, Brain case from Kaiseki Digital, who I’ve been playing lately as Free Album Codes has provided me with codes for some early releases from 2018. German synaptic spill. Trevlad – Hits Enjoyable Amended – self-released soundscape from the episode of the same name. A repeat name from the spot where I try and sleep most nights. This one’s from the album TVCL 10 and has nothing to do with the track of the same name from TVCL 09. Puscha – Sycophanatic – NEN, Melbourne cinematic hypnosis. Provided by Fonodroom. Everyday Dust – Without Explanation – Dustopian Frequencies, Scottish drone stories that evaporate.

You just floated through Zerfranzt, Trevlad, Puscha, and Everyday Dust. Halfway mark is creeping up. I’m starting to feel that metaphysical flip? The universe just winked at you and kept walking.

THIRD CLUSTER (pre-B Side)  Edges blurring, bodies floating. phorme – blur – Kaiseki Digital, Australian meditative haze from NSW. Also from 2018. Takashi Kusano – Floating – Sounds for the Soul, Japanese levitation.
And then comes the B Side…
 phorme and Takashi Kusano just lifted you clean out of gravity. Now the bench is empty and the cats are from hell.

FOURTH CLUSTER (B Side)  Empty benches, hellcat beats, half-human wires, clinical worms. Substak – Empty Bench – Daydreamers, Greek meditative park-bench snippet. Le Morte d’Abby – Nyanko No Jigoku Beat – dark electro from the neon underworld. Jilk – Half-Human – Bricolage, Glasgow idm hybrid soul. The Foot & Leg Clinic – Worms 2 – alternative rock diagnosis under fluorescent lights.
 You just sat on Substak’s Empty Bench, got bitten by Le Morte d’Abby’s hellcats, glitched with Jilk, and received a full worm examination from The Foot & Leg Clinic. Your body is now 40% frequency.

FIFTH CLUSTER  Appetizers of life, grace with nothing, tidal animation tags, Nordic sea breath. The Appetizers – The Life – Italian roots reggae funk from Rome. Rejoicer – Grace Was Happy (I Found Nothing) – LA epiphany of joyful emptiness. Sounds as if Weather Report did music for film.  Record Of Tides – Yoshimoto Animation Tag – Mahorka hauntological Japanese cels on the tide. Glitchy 8-bit crackles.  Albin – Havet – Paltunes, Swedish sea inhaling your thoughts. Everything Albin Johansson touches glows with a nostalgic warmth I can never get enough of.
 You just tasted The Appetizers, let Rejoicer’s Grace smile at nothing, rode Record Of Tides’ animation waves, and sank into Albin’s Havet. The apartment is underwater now.

FINAL CLUSTER  Rain shelter geometry and half-a-day London melt.  Kikagaku Moyo – Amayadori – Guruguru Brain, psychedelic Tokyo forest clearing. ff8282 – london / half the day – 4000 Records, fractured electronic daydreams.
 You just sheltered with Kikagaku Moyo and melted through half a London day with ff8282. That’s the whole set.
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 and marked in the timeline.
If you’re still listening… you’re in the club. No meetings. No rules. Just dust and frequencies.
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 drywall.
Cheerio…

END OF BROADCAST Stream free for 7 days on Mixcloud. Background track: Trevlad’s TVCL 11. 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

Trev Tales – Neon Cassette

Welcome to NEON CASSETTE, the transmission where analog dreams collide with digital ghosts, and every beat feels like a memory you never quite lived.

I’m your host, Trevor, speaking straight from the glow of a flickering CRT, cassette deck spinning, reverb tail trailing into the void.

This new series (I know I do too much already) is an idea I have for doing live DJ sets combined with me reading fictional tales where each transition is a new chapter. I hope you like it. Channel subscribers get the music only mixes of course.

We’re diving deep into the grid—stolen frequencies, midnight motorways, poolside echoes that never quite close up, and utopian mirages that glitch when you get too close. We’ve got a handpicked journey through the underground wires: from the raw pulse of trial and resistance, through lunar skin and stargazing rooftops, all the way to that final white-noise cliff where we realize we can’t wait for death… because the night’s already ours.

So dim the lights, hit play, let the tape hiss fill the room. We’re not just listening—we’re escaping.

Apta – Trial – 01:28
Gavel pixels stutter across the cathode screen, my wrists cuffed in magnetic tape loops. The judge’s face is pure waveform, spiking guilt, spiking innocence, I can’t tell which. Fingers itch for the keys anyway—steal the sound, steal the future, they said. The courtroom hums like a detuned oscillator. One wrong note and the grid swallows me whole. But the tape is already rolling. Escape in 4… 3… 2…

Cautionary Guides – Merseytravel – 05:29
Train doors hiss open onto wet Liverpool concrete, South Parkway signs bleeding orange into the night. Cautionary yellow lines streak past the window like corrupted data. My reflection stares back—hollow, cassette-case thin—while the Mersey rolls black and silver below. Suitcase full of stolen patches rattles on the rack. Every mile erases the courtroom glow. North, south, doesn’t matter. The rhythm says keep moving.

Jetfire Prime – Closing Up (Unreleased Poolside Track) – 08:00
Club lights die one by one, turquoise rectangles folding into black water. Last swimmer’s laughter echoes off tiled walls that smell of chlorine and ozone. I stand at the edge, towel around my neck like a noose, watching the pool reflect a sky that no longer exists. Unreleased. That’s what they’ll call this night too. The gate clangs shut behind me. Echoes only.

Conny Frischauf – Wunder – 09:17
A single chord blooms—pure Wunder—lifting the hairs on my arms like static electricity. For one frozen second the motorway becomes a cathedral of light. Then the chord bends, warps, reveals itself as just another illusion. Still, the heart remembers the lift. Still, the lungs remember how to breathe again.

Patrick R. Pärk – Synthetic Utopian Mirage – 11:37
Palm trees made of vector lines shimmer above cracked asphalt. Perfect neon condos float above the desert, windows full of laughing holograms. I reach out—fingers pass straight through pink stucco. The mirage laughs back in 16-bit. Utopia always looked better on the oscilloscope.

Franco Esse – Pelle Di Luna – 19:08
Her shoulder under moonlight—silver, cool, impossible. Skin like vinyl left in the sun too long, warm and warped and perfect. I trace the curve with a fingertip and the memory skips, repeats, skips again. Pelle di luna. The only sample I never stole.

Pabellón Sintético – La Resistencia – 21:20
Concrete walls pulse with red spray-paint glyphs. We are the resistance of the last frequency. Boots on wet pavement, synths hidden in rucksacks, hearts beating in 4/4 defiance. Sirens in the distance sound like detuned arpeggios. We don’t run. We modulate.

Acos CoolKAs – Stargazing – 29:09
Roof tiles cold against my back. Stars above look like dead LEDs someone forgot to turn off. I count them anyway—each one a lost patch, each one a night we almost made. The city hums below like a held note. I keep staring until the sky itself starts to breathe.

Dark Strands – We Own The Night – 34:08
We own the night. The slogan tastes like copper and cheap smoke. Streetlights flicker in time with the kick. Shadows lengthen, stretch into black ribbons we can hide inside. Tonight the city belongs to anyone with a sequencer and a grudge. Tonight we are the dark strands holding everything together.

Makeup and Vanity Set – Search The Night – 40:15
Flashlight beam sweeps empty arcades, hunting for one more glowing screen. Makeup smeared across cracked mirrors, vanity long gone. I search for the signal that will tell me it’s safe to stop running. Every corner throws back only my own face, distorted, beautiful, terrified.

Dogs Versus Shadows – MALCONTENT – 42:42
Malcontent. The word snarls in my chest like a broken sawtooth. Everything perfect is a lie. Every utopia glitches. Every lover fades to static. I bare my teeth at the moon and the moon bares its teeth right back. Good. At least we understand each other.

Pye Corner Audio – Program 70 – 44:15
Program 70 boots in the glovebox—green phosphor glow lighting the steering wheel. Old code I wrote when I still believed in happy endings. It hums, remembers me, offers one last subroutine: RUN AWAY. I laugh until the tears short-circuit the dashboard.

Salvatore Mercatante – Detector – 48:22
Beep. Beep. The scanner on the dash lights up red. They’re close. Detector never lies. I floor it. The engine screams in perfect fifths. Every beep is another bar of the final track I’ll never finish.

Albin – Hammenhög – 52:13
Hammenhög appears like a memory I never lived—red wooden houses, windmills frozen mid-turn, snow that shouldn’t be here in July. I pull over, engine ticking cool. For one moment the world is quiet. Then the detector beeps again. Even paradise has an exit ramp.

Larry Manteca – Tuareg Road – 55:32
Sand whips across the windshield in turquoise dunes. Tuareg Road stretches forever under a violet sky. No mirrors, no rear-view, just forward. The car becomes a camel made of chrome. I ride the arpeggio into infinity.

Erez Yaary – O7 – 57:05
O7. The secret orbit. The code inside the code. I punch it into the old radio and the stars realign. For seven seconds I am outside everything—outside the trial, outside the night, outside death itself. Then gravity remembers my name.

Yves Malone – We Can’t Wait For Death – 1:05:26
The road ends at a cliff of pure white noise. I kill the engine. The last chord hangs in the air like a question that already knows the answer. We can’t wait for death—death has been riding shotgun the whole time, tapping its foot to the beat. I smile, finally. The tape clicks off. Silence rushes in, warm and endless.

The stars above are still blinking in perfect 4/4.

I close my eyes.

The next track begins inside my chest.

EXPANSIVE WAVES 24

07 March 2026

EXPANSIVE WAVES — EPISODE 24

Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Expansive Waves, episode twenty-four. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator.

This programme is not for the hurried. Eight pieces, each longer than 12 minutes—most stretching far beyond that—each more patient than the last. If you’re expecting choruses, drops, or anything resembling urgency, you may want to try another channel.

So, settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the cat sleep. Let the world spin without you for a while.

We begin with…

Work Money Death and “Pain Becomes Prayer And Prayer Becomes A Song,” from the album A Portal To Here, released by ATA Records on the 13th of Feb. 2026.

Picture yourself in a dimly lit room at dusk, harp strings catching the last amber light, a low horn murmuring like wind through an ancient chapel, tamborine arriving soft and deliberate as distant rain on stone — grief transforming, layer by layer, into something luminous and unnameable.
A profound meditation where sorrow unfolds into reverence, the ensemble channeling spiritual jazz lineages with tender, unhurried grace.

That was Work Money Death — “Pain Becomes Prayer And Prayer Becomes A Song.”

Next, we drift into Dubberrookie with “Real Axing,” drawn from the album Pieces for Piano A NYP self release from the 22nd of Feb. 2026

Imagine bare wooden floors under moonlight, a single piano in the center of an empty warehouse, keys struck with such restraint that each note lingers like fog rolling across water, electronic undertows pulling gently at the edges of perception.
A delicate, wobbly exploration that turns piano resonance into something quietly electronic and deeply introspective.

That was Dubberrookie — “Real Axing.”

Now, Fabio Keiner & Jack Hertz present “Mindless,” the title track from their album Mindless on Aural Films. A NYP release let loose on the 14th of Feb. 2026

Vast open sky at twilight, no horizon line, only infinite gradients of indigo and violet; beneath it, subtle field recordings of wind across empty plains merge with slow, formless tones that seem to erase the boundary between listener and sound.
A generous, healing expanse of drone crafted in tribute to World Sound Healing Day — pure, extended immersion without anchor or agenda.

That was Fabio Keiner & Jack Hertz — “Mindless.”

We continue with Gustavo Denouard and “Chimes in the Mist,” from the album Echoes of the Cosmos on Projekt Records. Dropped January 30th 2026.

Crystalline structures floating in deep space, faint luminous fog parting to reveal shimmering synth chimes that ripple outward like light through water, everything weightless, radiant, eternal.
Enchanting, luminous ambient electronics that evoke distant nebulae and quiet cosmic wonder.

That was Gustavo Denouard — “Chimes in the Mist.”

Shifting now to Yakuza Jacuzzi with “Wabi-Sabi,” from the album Wabi-Sabi on Cyclical Dreams which dropped on the 27th of February 2026.

An ancient garden after rain — cracked stone lantern, imperfect moss-covered branches, bass tones humming low like earth settling, harmonic shimmers appearing and dissolving like fleeting cherry blossoms in wind.
An immersive embrace of imperfection and transience, where cosmic drones and subtle instrumentation find beauty in the incomplete.

That was Yakuza Jacuzzi — “Wabi-Sabi.”

Next comes Mark Ellery Griffiths and “Colledig,” from the album Annwfn 2025, NYP self-released on March 1st 2026.
Shadowed Welsh valleys at twilight, mist clinging to ancient stones, deep drones rising from the earth like voices from the underworld, slow layers evoking loss and mythic depth.
Dark, resonant ambient that draws listeners into the mythic underworld with brooding, mythological weight.

That was Mark Ellery Griffiths — “Colledig.”

We move toward the close with Lingua Lustra and “Collosphaera,” from the album Sphaera 2005-2025, self-released on 24th of January 2026.
Spherical forms drifting through twenty years of sonic memory — glowing orbs of reworked and lost experiments, vast spherical atmospheres expanding and contracting like living celestial bodies.
This release is a sweeping retrospective journey through two decades of refined, expansive soundworlds — timeless and enveloping.

That was Lingua Lustra — “Collosphaera.”

And to carry us out… Rupert Lally with “Nord D” — Self released work titles Norden which dropped on the 6th of March 2026.
Stark Nordic landscape under pale winter light, modular synth lines tracing generative paths across frozen lakes, minimal pulses echoing like footsteps in snow, vast and unadorned.
Crisp, generative minimalism born from single-take modular explorations — quiet, precise, and profoundly spacious.

That was Rupert Lally — “Nord D.”

And so the waves recede for another evening. Eight long forms, eight patient unfoldings. If any of these pieces resonated in the quiet corners, you’ll find links to the artists and albums on the episode page at trevor.se and in the Mixcloud comments.

Trevlad on Bandcamp remains my small sonic home — trevlad.bandcamp.com.

Feel free to leave a thought on the Mixcloud timeline. Until the next fragment of time pulls us back together… this is Trevor, signing off from Expansive Waves, episode twenty-four. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 176

04 February 2026

///hits.enjoyable.amended

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 176. I’m your guide, Trevor.

The cassette sits ready in the deck, labels hand-scribbled, oxide already flaking a bit at the edges. Side A and Side B, twenty artists strung across them like beads on a frayed string. We’ll flip the tape halfway through, that satisfying clunk and hiss, because some things refuse to be digital.

Tonight we drift through ambient drifts, kosmische pulses, drone meditations, a touch of library funk, some psychedelic sprawl, electroacoustic murmurs from places like Bulgaria, the UK, Munich, Buenos Aires, Athens, Rome, Sheffield, Colorado, and a few others that don’t fit neatly on any map. The longest track stretches out patiently, Asha Patera’s – Wandering in the Upside Down from Sounds for the Soul Records, clocking in at just over 11 minutes. Durations aside, none hurry. There’s an exclusive track which open the B side from Moscow artist DEE_KAY and his track Bellcut. But we’ll get to all that in a bit.
Headphones on if you’ve got them. Volume where it feels intimate. Let the kettle whistle if it wants to. The world can wait.

We begin with a January release from the Mahorka label in Bulgaria, a collected volume of drone and teknoiz spanning a decade. Autonomаton offers The UFO project remix—eerie, floating synth washes that suggest something observed from a great height, unhurried and slightly unsettling in the best way. From the album Collected Not Lost 2015-2025 Vol 1: Drone and Teknoiz.

Autonomаton – The UFO project remix.

Next, Mark Ellery Griffiths with Synthi Sequence B. Loops and sequences built on vintage synths, patient repetitions that build quiet architectures. Mark is a regular of my shows and doesn’t get the credit he should. Check out his Bandcamp releases. He’s nudging on 50 and they’re name your price. Synthi Loops Sequences 2025 – Self released back in December.

Mark Ellery Griffiths – Synthi Sequence B.

Danielle Nia now, Longing For Togetherness. Warm, enveloping tones from i u we records, a gentle pull toward connection without ever forcing the issue. Stunning patchwork from the great Connected 3 compilation. Released a couple of weeks back on i u we records.

Danielle Nia – Longing For Togetherness.

Greek artist Substak and his track Apartment Window from Belgian ambient label Daydreamers. A quick view onto quiet streets, field recordings woven into subtle rhythms, the sound of somewhere lived-in and watched over time. From the EP Empty Bench – released not two weeks ago.

Substak – Apartment Window.

A good friend of the channel Asha Patera, Wandering in the Upside Down. Dream-logic drifts and inverted atmospheres from Sounds for the Soul Records, like walking through familiar rooms that have rearranged themselves while you slept. The Vale of Shadows – Sounds for the Soul. Which is a Stranger Things inspired ambient compilation. Also released in January. This is the long haul.

Asha Patera – Wandering in the Upside Down.

Belgian artist Jeroen Lauwers is, Red Stars Over Tokyo with In Trance from self released The Burning Spiral. Pulsing, hypnotic acid tinged layers that suggest endless night drives through neon-lit cities that might not exist. The Burning Spiral. released back in December.

Red Stars Over Tokyo – In Trance.

Southend On Sea artist Adrian Lane, After The Deluge. Post-flood calm, piano and strings emerging from residue, reflective, haunted and sparse. Their Ghosts and Ours – out on Sheffields finest Audiobulb.

Adrian Lane – After The Deluge.

Argentinian artist Puppy Bordiga with mRn, Solarium. Collaborative warmth, sunlit electronics and gentle percussion from Walking the Way III. Self released back in November.

Puppy Bordiga with mRn – Solarium.

ATA Records is a label and I can’t get my head around if they are also a band. They really know their library stuff but on this release and others the artist is simply ATA Records, no credits to the artists which is a shame. Anyway This is Tatsuya, The Sword. Library archive material, cinematic and evocative, with a heartfelt flute. drawn from Vol 4. The Library Archive Vol 4 – ATA Records.

ATA Records – Tatsuya, The Sword.

Tape flip. The mechanism clicks, heads realign, oxide continues its slow decay. Side B.

Coming up the exclusive for episode 176 is by Moscow Marist DEE-KEY now, Bellcut. Sharp, precise cuts through ambient haze from Local Gods. Local Gods. Drops next week in the 12 of February. Remember where you heard it first.

DEE-KEY – Bellcut.

Now from one of the best Italian jazz-funk library albums of the ’70s. Oscar Rocchi’s Genziana. Herbal, pastoral electronics evoking wild flowers and Italian hillsides, from Erbe Selvatiche on Four Flies Vaults which is the digital imprint of Four Flies Records.

Oscar Rocchi – Genziana.

Now to a favourite label and a release from November. Grant Beasley, The Vanishing Point. This is the title track. Horizon-line drones and slow dissolves. Grant Beasley – The Vanishing Point – Cyclical Dreams.

Grant Beasley – The Vanishing Point.

Next filter sweep time. LA artist Good Sunset, Taormina. Which is a hilltop town on the island of Sicily and I bet they have good sunsets there. Sun-drenched, cinematic reveries from Cinema Everything on Mystery Circles.

Good Sunset – Taormina.

And here’s one from me, under Trevlad—EXPANSIVE WAVES 18 (Slipping Precautions Obvious). A previous transmission excerpt, layered and recursive. TVCL 07 – Trevlad.

Trevlad – EXPANSIVE WAVES 18 (Slipping Precautions Obvious).

Next the poppiest piece I’ve played in a good while. Nostalgia 77, You Where In My Dream Last Night. Dream-state jazz inflections, soft and lingering. Love the bass lines and sound. This is the first single from their upcoming EP titled: When The Lights Gone. Which drops on the 1 May on Nostalgia 77’s Bandcamp page.

Nostalgia 77 – You Where In My Dream Last Night.

Next up Guitars and synth with GROSSO GADGETTO, and “the track Once there was only dark”. Apocalyptic soundscapes for a world winding down, from “Soundtrack for a Dying World by Dark Supreme & Grosso Gadgetto”. Sampled voices of Matthew McConaughey & Woody Harrelson.

GROSSO GADGETTO – “Once there was only dark”.

Now get your world music psychedelic slippers on. We’re off to Melbourne Australia. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Flying Microtonal Banana. Microtonal excursions, psychedelic without apology, the shortest in the episode at 2:34 yet packing strange tunings into tight space. From the album of the same fantastic name. Released on the Heavenly Recordings label about a year ago.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard – Flying Microtonal Banana.

Now back to 2021 and some wonky synth chords. Near Stoic, Music For A Friend. Intimate, thoughtful pieces from Notebook Thoughts Short Stories on Third Kind Records. A definite Boards of Canada vibe to this one.

Near Stoic – Music For A Friend.

Now I wish my doorbell sounded more like this. The penultimate track and the ultimate wind down. Miguel Otero, Blooming in Sturton Street. Gentle blooms and street-level calm from Islas Calm Cloud. One of the recent compilations let loose on Whitelabrecs. Get it now…

Miguel Otero – Blooming in Sturton Street.

And before the tape ends. Thanks for staying with it. These transmissions aren’t built for haste, and neither, I suspect, are you. Support the artists if any of this lodged somewhere—buy the music, share the names. Stream this one on Mixcloud for a week if you need to revisit. All the paths and links live at trevor.se.
And if it was possible to close on a chiller note I think I have you covered. We close with Astropilot, The River Knows No Hurry. Flowing, unforced kosmische from Stockholm label Valley View Records, a reminder that some currents simply continue.
Until the next time the cassette calls. Stay resonant. Stay expansive. Let the sounds find their own way.
Trevor, signing off.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 175

01 February 2026

///workforce.overtime.whistle

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 washed up in. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, episode one hundred and seventy-five. I’m Trevor, here again, turning over another worn cassette in the dim glow, letting the oxide whisper its secrets.
These tapes arrive unmarked most times, or with labels half-peeled, but they carry traces—field recordings folded into drone, synths that drift like low cloud over northern latitudes, breaks that nod to libraries long since catalogued and forgotten, post-rock edges softened by reverb tails, psych undercurrents that never quite surface, ambient excursions that refuse to resolve. Scotland lingers in a few of these grooves, Cologne breathes through one, Italy scatters light across another, while others seem to come from no fixed place at all, just coordinates lost between sleep and map.
No rush tonight. Twenty pieces, two sides, a flip when the spool runs thin. If the kettle needs boiling, let it. If the room grows cold, pull something closer. The world can wait outside the door.
It’s a special Saturday here in Sweden and marks the start of the Melody Festival. Which, however you feel about it makes the long winter up here bearable. How ever you feel about the music represented.
Now back to this outing.
First, something that moves like light through leaves in late winter. Camouflage by Kraft, from the Bureau B 2025 release on Bureau B. A gentle, sensual, unfurling, synths breathing slow. Headphones on, let time dissolve and let the frequencies claim you.
Camouflage – Kraft.
Now Lo Five with STORY, pulled from Superdank on Lunar Module. A definite nod to the ORB, A pumping beat over child spoken narrative and House stabs.
STORY – Lo Five.
Now taking us way down. E J R M offers Pitter Patter, part of Solar Return – Gollden Hour Mix on Imaginary North. Glistening drones that patter like rain on tin, layered with distant chords.
Pitter Patter – E J R M.
Now staying in Droneville. Wil Bolton and David Cordero together for Starlight Breeze, from How to Make Sense of Downtime on the Home Normal label. Notes drift against soft drones, a breeze indeed.
Starlight Breeze – Wil Bolton & David Cordero.
Now a shot one, 1:25 to be exact. Tim Story and Cafe Kaputt, taken from Buzzle on Curious Music. Melancholic Mellotron keys and a Hugh Hopper style bass, in a room that’s emptying slowly.
Cafe Kaputt – Tim Story.
The longest piece for the episode at 8 minutes. Droning Cats with NRV bring Dreams with Claws, from Cartography of Sleep on Barcelona based See Blue Audio. Claws sheathed in haze, dreams that scratch gently. Bobbling bass which sounds like it’s being played by the tide. and sparse porch friendly guitar lines.
Dreams with Claws – Droning Cats with NRV.
Caer Sgàil, from Scotland, with It’s The People We Choose (Exit Chamber’s Choose Wisely Remix), off It’s The Remixes We Choose EP on Caer Sgàil’s Bandcamp. Deep, shadowed rework, piano buried in mist.
It’s The People We Choose (Exit Chamber’s Choose Wisely Remix) – Caer Sgàil.
And now for something completely different. Modern Sound Quartet and Bucaneve, from Italian Library Breaks on Four Flies Records. Breaks with a Mediterranean lightness, snow in name only. Italian library jazz fusion from the 70s.
Bucaneve – Modern Sound Quartet.
Another longer track at 7:39. Andrea Cichecki offers When We Close Our Eyes, shared with track that follows by Tangent Universes on Connected 3 via I u we Records. Eyes closed, the world turns inward, synths cradle the shift.
When We Close Our Eyes – Andrea Cichecki.
And right beside it, Tangent Universes with A Suit Of Leaves, also from Connected 3 on I u we Records. Leaves rustling in some parallel season.
A Suit Of Leaves – Tangent Universes.
Time to turn the tape. Listen for the clunk, the hiss, the moment the mechanism catches.

We open Side B. Ekin Fil with bump, from Bora Boreas on Dutch label Dronarivm. Delicate, almost fragile, yet it lingers.
bump – Ekin Fil.
Now the perfect track for the moment as I’m recording this on Saturday morning. Wooden Tape and Saturday Morning, lifted from the MCPM018 Compilation Album on Moolakii Club Audio Interface label. Sun through curtains, coffee cooling, a cassette morning.
Saturday Morning – Wooden Tape.
Another Mellotron now. Osees deliver The Ceiling, released as a single. Garage-psych softened at the edges. Like early Floyd crossed with Cardiacs.
The Ceiling – Osees.
Next some original indie thinking. Foxwarren with Strange, off 2 on Anti- Records. Folk that tilts strange, sampled classic movie strings and bubbling bass.
Strange – Foxwarren.
Next Andrew Wasylyk featuring Gruff Rhys on The Cold Collar, from Irreparable Parables on the immaculate Clay Pipe Music label. Wonderful story telling.
The Cold Collar (Feat. Gruff Rhys) – Andrew Wasylyk.
Eafhm presents Luzne (Part l), from Eafhm – Luzne on Secuencias Temporales. Percussive world techno. Part one unfolds slow, light on water perhaps.
Luzne (Part l) – Eafhm.
Now the shortest tack of the episode at 58 seconds Herne von Bòrmanvs with Will O^ Water, from Synthergic on recent label friend Pente. Water that glows, will o’ the wisp in circuit form.
Will O^ Water – Herne von Bòrmanvs.
another short and sweet track at 1:42. Grocer Cat and closing up shop. the day is done, off A Day at Market on Hecate. Shutters down, keys in pocket, quiet settles.
closing up shop. the day is done – Grocer Cat.
Now some raw grit. Geese arrive with Bow Down, from Getting Killed on their Bandcamp. Post-punk angles, heads bowed in rhythm.
Bow Down – Geese.
And now, as the reels slow and the tape flaps loose at the end, a few words before the silence claims us again. Thanks for staying with it. These shows aren’t built for quick glances or playlists on shuffle. They’re for the long sit, the slow listen. If anything here stayed with you, find the artists, buy the records, send them a signal through the ether. It matters. This one streams free for seven days on Mixcloud—link below, or at trevor.se, where the credits live too. Comments welcome, or none at all. Silence has its own frequency.
Until the next tape finds its way onto the deck—stay resonant, stay expansive, let the waves carry what they will.
Finally, Jens Pauly with Naab, from his work on the great Whitelabrecs. Field lines drawn in Cologne air, quiet testimony.
This is Trevor, signing off. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 169

17 January 2026

///hits.enjoyable.amended

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

This is Trevor here, on the 17th of January 2026. Bringing you Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, cassette number 169.
Two sides, as ever. A flip in the middle. Twenty names scratched onto the insert in biro that’s starting to fade.
We begin Side A, with Lisbon Portugal based JB Kyron and Tony Watts who together call themselves Hidden Horse — Trespass Into The Maze from their forthcoming release Renewer and also on the
upcoming vinyl compilation Extracellular — from Buried Treasure. Which, at the moment can only be heard on CD when you purchase a Gig Ticket Promo. A gig featuring some great acts highlighting avant-garde abstraction & hip-swinging electronica which takes place at the Rising Sun Arts Centre, in Reading, on the 28th of February. Tickets are only 6 pounds. A no brainer if you’re in that neck of the woods.
Trespass Into The Maze is a slow unfurling of field recordings and distant bells, like walking through fog that remembers your footsteps.
So headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the frequencies claim you.
Next up is Scottish artist.
Veryan — and the remix version of Needles At The Bottom Of The Sea, by Jules Straw aka, Pinklogik. Taken from the three track, name your price, self released, Broken Mirrors EP.
Deep sub-aquatic drift, pulses that rise and fall like breath under pressure.
Dolphins of Venice — Guldschmitt
From Captains of Industry — Mahorka.
Golden drones meet faint mechanical clatter, somewhere between Venice canals and abandoned factories.
Coming up the channels best friend in the form of Gareth Evans also known as Horrowdwarf or HDRF — here with one of the many great tracks from my own curated 45 track compilation Resonances From The Depths. Gareth is one of those people you’re happy to have on the planet, and deserves at least a plaque for being himself.
Layered aquatic melancholy, synths that bubble and subside without ever quite surfacing. HDRF, But Drowning.
Now some damp drones from Mosaicist — Unseen For The Day
From The Fog Is Lifting — released back in November on Whitelabrecs.
Quiet guitar figures dissolve into haze, the sound of light slowly leaving a room.
Now another track from that Buried treasure Extracellular compilation from
Domotic — Ossature. Originally released on the self released Fourrure Sounds Vol. 2 —
Bone-dry textures and soft fur-like pads, intimate and strangely tactile with bonkers bubbling percussive sequences.
Next up LA based Steve Pacheco takes us out into the clouds with — Aspen Grove
From Islas Calm Cloud — Whitelabrecs.
Gentle wind through high branches, sparse piano notes caught in the aspens.
Now from Antwerp, Belgium Gregory Geerts also known as, Strangebird~Sounds brings us some Eurorack modular magic with the track — FLUORITE
From Minerals Form The Crust
Crystalline resonances, mineral shimmer that feels both ancient and newly formed. Released on Audiobulb Records yesterday.
Another exclusive track also from Audiobulb records now from idiiom wonderful improvised vocalisations in the title track Neural Network dropping on the 7th of February.
Glitching, half-remembered machine dreams, edges that blur between code and consciousness.
Finishing off the A side is an artists I played yesterday on the EXPANSIVE WAVES episode. This is applecore — fmbient
From Contact At The Deep Bottom — a name your price release that dropped on the 11th of January via the Mahorka label.
Warm, lo-fi ambient hum, like a distant server farm breathing in the night.

Side B

Starting of the second half of the show is a release from yesterday from Argentinian synthesist Ulises Labaronnie — Evening thoughts
From Cycles De Mémoire — Cyclical Dreams.
Reflective, almost elegiac pads that drift through twilight memory.
And now Bernard Grancher — with, excuse my French, Sous les flots incertains et la fange du matin, which translates as Under the uncertain floods and the mire of the morning
From Astra Lumen Solaria which dropped January 6th on artist curated label Astra Solaria Recordings.
Blissful retro synth currents, morning mud, slow and deliberate.
Gareth Jones — erSprach
From Mortality Tables single — released January 12th on Mortality Tables.
Odd sampled fragments, suspended in vast reverb, half incantation.
And now the brothers Clive and Mark Ives also known as Woo — Abstract Objects
From the album M=C — Self released on the 21st of December.
Floating, free-form abstraction, gentle percussion that never quite commits to rhythm.

Some deep drone now from the legends The Black Dog — Sleep Deprivation 44: Frayed Edges Consciousness
From The Black Dog Presents Sleep Deprivation Greatest Hits Vol. 3.
Exhausted, fraying electronics, the sound of a mind at 4 a.m. still refusing to shut down.

Now a name we’ve all grown up with in Karl Bartos of Kraftwerk fame here with the track Another Reality
From the compilation Bureau B 2025
Kosmische pulse, clean and measured, a doorway left ajar to somewhere parallel.
We head back to Whitelabrecs and a release that dropped today in the form of the must have compilation Sleeplaboratory6.0 here is French artist Eric Allietta better known as Ancient Astronaut — Lightened.
Weightless drift, light slowly returning after long dark.
Rutger Zuydervelt — House of Strength
From House of Strength — released last November on the amazing Dutch label, Dronarivm.
Architectural drones, solid yet permeable, like walking through rooms made of sound.
The penultimate piece from the episode is also an exclusive track from Third Kind Records 5 quid subscription service which entitles subscribers to exclusive stuff as well as 50% off merch.
Rupert Lally & Nicholas Langley — Acid Pavilions
Acid-touched modular wanderings, pavilions erected and dismantled in the same breath.
Before the reels slow, a few words.
Thanks for staying with it. These tapes aren’t made for playlists or algorithms.
They’re made for the hours when the rest of the world has gone quiet.
If anything here stayed with you, find the artists, buy the music, keep the small labels breathing.
Stream this one on Mixcloud while it lasts, links and credits at trevor.se and in the comments.
Say something if the mood takes you. Or say nothing. Both are fine.
I was recently back in Dublin for a few days and met with a couple of my closest friends from the past. At the honorary pub session there was excitement about this final act. Who are new to me oddly. Thanks to Garret and Graham for the heads up. This is
Thee Oh Sees — Toe Cutter – Thumb Buster
From Floating Coffin — Self released
Garage-psych motorik churn, the only moment tonight where things get properly physical.
Until the next cassette finds its way into the deck—stay resonant.
Trevor, signing off.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 168

15 January 2026

///saves.lend.held

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

Here is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library – episode 168.
Here on the virtual deck tonight, another selection pulled from the shelves of the library. Electronic currents, ambient drifts, synthesizer explorations, some deep techno pulses, kosmische traces, italian library breaks, and a few passages into hauntology and experimental corners.
We begin side A.
Steve Hauschildt – Statue of Verdigris – from Aeropsia
A shimmering, verdant drift of modular synth layers from Tbilisi, Georgia that feels permanently suspended in early morning light. Available through Simul Records.
Here is 6 minutes from Awe Kid – Eve (Max Cooper Remix) – from Atomnation 2025 Compilation 2
Intricate, breathing jungle rework with crystalline rhythms and vast open skies. The first of two works from this great compilation.
Saïph – Tellurkraft – from Accentape007: Saïph – Teriak 2
Staying in the beat section we have dense, rolling dubtechno pressure from Paris, heavy with reverb tails and mineral undertones.
Let’s take it down with VVvrm – Nightwatch – from Praise the Hidden Path
Shadowy, nocturnal dungeon synth that guards the gates between worlds. Bringing us back to, or into, gaming mode.
Coming up wonderful 5/8 timings with Portland Vows – Algor – from Living Posthumously
Bleak, isolationist dark ambient from the Pacific Northwest, cold wind across abandoned concrete. On the amazing Third Kind Record label.
Short and sweet with Suncastle – Evenbloom – from Like Failing Clockwork
Gentle, nature synth drift, soft blooms unfolding across a failing, crackling, mechanical horizon. Available through Triplicate records.
Epic drones coming up from Gidge – Whiteout – from Atomnation 2025 Compilation 2
Sweeping, melodic techno from Sweden with white-noise horizons and distant emotional thunder. The second piece from this must have Atomisation release.
Bringing back some percussive elements with Monoparts – Scattered Parts – from 2025 Label Compilation mixed by Todos (A Strangely Isolated Place)
Fragmented IDM constructions, delicate and quietly chaotic.
Here comes almost 6 minutes of dub from Shadow Dancer – Bom20 – from 1997-1998 Unreleased
Raw, vintage Chicago acid lines via Manchester unearthed from the late 90s archive. Self Released.
Coming up the last entry for the A side and the most adventurous outing of the show I dare say. Just under 6 minutes from aeon – Sora (adagio for shrimps) – from the compilation Resonances from the Depths
Submerged, watery electroacoustic meditation with strange, gentle crustacean lullabies. Recorded with real live shrimps. aeon is a top friend of the channel and this is a piece from my second compilation outing available via the Trevlad Bandcamp page.
(tape slows… mechanical clunk… flip… tape leader hiss)
More atmospheres from distant places tonight – Sweden, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Norway, and even a whisper from Argentina.
Scottish artist Moray Newlands – The Recesses – another one from my own Murmurs in the Mist compilation.
Quiet, misty drone passages that linger in forgotten corridors. It’s so nice to see the artists from my releases getting airplay out there. Don’t forget to send in your entries for the upcoming Puzzles of the Psyche compilation before March 26th.
And now two minutes of bliss from Nicholas Langley – 1996 – from Entropy Soundtracks & Ambients Volume 2 (Third Kind Records)
Nostalgic 90s hauntology, crackling with the ghosts of old TV idents. If you think I’ve being playing a lot from Third Kind Records lately it’s because they sent me their entire discography. Hint hint, wink wink, say no more.
Meftah – 7 – from The Second Circle (Neroli Records)
Minimal, 7/8 timed hypnotic pulse carved from deep Parisian shadows.
The legendary Kid Spatula – Spitalfield – from Joozy (Mike Paradinas aka Mu-ziq aka Kid Spatula
Playful, skewed IDM with bright, wonky angles. and a fantastic synth bass line. Another one available through Third Kind Records.
And here’s another great bass line but from the 70s with a short one by Rocchi, Godi, Chiarosi or the Modern Sound Quartet – Confabulante – from Italian Library Breaks (Four Flies Records)
Funky, swinging library groove straight out of Milan, on another channel supporting label.
A clear nod to Kraftwerk coming now with the longest piece on the episode clocking in at 7 minutes 28 seconds from Michael Brückner – Sequential Blue – from A Sequence of Colours (Cyclical Dreams) Massive shoutout to Pablo from the label who sends me all the latest from the label.
Berlin School sequences that ripple outward in deep azure waves.
Another one on the longer side at 5:48 from Trem 77 – Aepochs – from the album of the same name.
Cosmic, expansive synthesizer music that stretches across epochs. Thank you to the artist for sending me this and for the kind words about the channel. Don’t forget to send stuff you’d like to hear me play. It doesn’t have to be your own.
And now for something completely different with some short exclusive soul vibes from Norwegian Les Imprimés – Next Summer – from Fading Forward
Warm, sweet soul with gentle indie touches, looking toward brighter days. Coming soon on Big Crown Records and Colemine Records.
Al Lover Meets Cairo Liberation Front – Level 5 – from Nymphaea Caerulea
Psychedelic dub ritual, heavy percussion meeting ancient plant visions. Out on the amazing Gothenburg Sweden based label Höga Nord Rekords.
Now to end episode 168 of The Virtual Cassette Library I bring you some haunted piano from Swoop and Cross – Elco eda – from On the Grounds of Indecency (Perceptual Tapes)
Strange, off-kilter experimental soundscape with hidden narratives.

And that concludes episode 168. Thanks for staying with the tape right to the end. Until the next flip. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 165

10 January 2026

///pipe.fluid.fame

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 the all new Virtual Cassette Library and episode one‑six‑five.
First up we have the La Ponto Ensemblo which is actually a duo made up of Hans-Dieter Schmidt and Edward-Clark Cornell who together make delicate and harsh neo-classical pieces. This is track five from their latest release Fragile Objects: In A Harsh Environment.
Headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.
Next up an old favourite of mine in the form of fellow Irishman David K. Mason. Better known as Listening Center. Mason is now based in New York and runs the rather fantastic Temporary tapes label. Although this track, Plugged In Nollaig, (nollaig being Irish for Christmas) is from the Subexotic Records compilation EP Yule 25.
Just a heads up, 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.
Now next up the original sounds of Sam Prekop. Sam is a master of modular synthesis. This is the title track from his latest release Open Close which is available through Thrill Jockey Records.
Now Mark Donlon also known as CZiGO with the dare I say jazz fusion injected piece, SERPITUDE, from his album, Techno Feudal. The latest to drop on New Zealand based Machine Records.
Now Russian artist NDORFIK with the Idm vibe Saimaa which is named after a Finnish lake and here is given a Finnish remix by the legendary Lackluster. The album of the same name is available through the Local Gods label.
Next up is from the i u we records label. A label focussing on the beauty of female diversity in electronic music.
The artist is Silver Galaky and is a duo made up of Anna-Maria Van Reusel on modular and keyboard synthesizers, and usually a very imaginative guitarist Dennis Slypen. Although this piece might well be just anna letting loose on her 5U Moon Modular system. The track is Strahlensammler and is from the upcoming compilation release connected #3. Dropping on i u we records on the 20th of January.
Now one of my favourite Swedish artists at the moment. Albin Johansson who simply goes by the name Albin. Everything Albin has released is gold. He has that retro library music ear which I cherish. This is the title track from the name your price EP DFAM which I believe is entirely written on the Moog Drummer From Another Mother. Albin is also a curator of the Malmö label Paltunes. Let’s go.
And now staying in Sweden in a way. from my neighbours up the road Passed Recordings recent, must have Chrimbo compilation The Ghost of Christmas passed I’ve pulled another great track from the 35 piece strong release in the form of this short entry, Snowfields by the artist Angel who I no nothing about. Enjoy…
Next up a long live piece I’ve kept its entirety for the episode. This is the artist Ryan Watts who goes by the wonderful name of Akira Film Script. Here with the piece E. Not to be confused with E or E.. Which are tracks on the same album titled Live at the Modern. It’s released on a label you should all know by now, whitelabrecs run by the unstoppable Harry Towell.
And now to end the virtual A side another figure of the ambient scene who does more than his fair share, Boris Potschubay who we all know as Jogging House. Boris curates the fantastic label Seil Records on which he has released the album Kiosk. Here he is with the track Worn.

Starting off the B side was the wonderful harp-like piano sounds and jazz phrasings of Brooklyn based artist Eliot Krimsky with the track, Transmission, from the album, I Made My House. Out on the outstanding Moon Glyph
Next a track of my own titled Trunk Stubbed Wiser which is a What3Words geographical location where I’ve filmed a visual to go with the piece on youtube.
It’s from the album TVCL 07.
Now a legend who for me embodies the late 90s IDM mood. French artist Alain Pachins, better known as, CIALYN here with a live take called, Last Lights / Winds Reader, from the album, 24:1900 Session Live.
Now to Melbourne bassist and producer Karl Willebrant. The ultra prolific Willebrant has released two albums since the release of The Knight Seas which was released in November. Here is an almost 11 minute treat, Thoughts of Them (A Knight on a Beach Mix – slowed and reverb)
Next up the unmistakable organic electronic sound of KILN which is actually a group made up of Kevin Hayes, Kirk Marrison, and Clark Rehberg III. Here is a track from their 8th album, Lemon Borealis. Which was released on the wonderful label, A Strangely Isolated Place. This is Ptarmigan which is a form of grouse found in northern and arctic regions.
And now a short piece from the fun Dutch artist Toxic Chicken. This is the track, Inner Worlds, from the album, Felicity out on the brilliant label Ingrown Records.
Staying with Ingrown Records, here is another quicky, from label curator, Raw Ryan , here as the artist, Anubis Rude, and the 37 second ditty, Spirit Bell, from the album, Explorer. Support the Ingrown Records label. It’s needed.
Next up Jason Courtney aka, In Darkness There Is Light shortened to (IDTiL),
and another Machine Records release titled, A Screensaver Of Emotions, this is the pumping minute long, Ahhhh Sequence.
Now to the penultimate track and something different from British born, Vienna based, Mark Peter Royce Featuring Cecilia C from Tempestine and the track, Antidote, from the album Twilight in the Altered World.
We end with the beautiful ambient warblings of Collette Andrea who goes by the name Gollden. Collette helps curate the Toronto based label Imaginary North together with Daniel Field of Kilometre Club fame. Thank you all for tuning into episode 165 of the Virtual Cassette library. I hope you like its new direction. Sending us home is Gollden with, destiny #9, from the album, Destiny.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 162

1 January 2026

///mugs.softest.owners

“Hello, I’m Trevor, and this is episode one‑six‑two of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Mugs Softest Owners—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.
Before we begin, a very warm Happy New Year to you. Whether you’re listening on a walk, in the quiet of the early hours, or hiding from the world with a pair of headphones, I hope 2026 brings you peace, curiosity, and a few unexpected sonic discoveries.
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. And a quick note: the tracks by Simon McCorry and Gregory Paul Mineeff in this episode are exclusives from the upcoming Whitelabrecs compilation sleeplaboratory6.0. Apologies to Harry for playing so many pieces from this wonderful release, which drops tomorrow, the 2nd of January. When something’s good, it’s hard not to share it.
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 rest of the show wanders through kosmische corners, microtonal detours, lullabies, croquettes, mythology, therapy, vortexes, and the occasional snow‑dusted memory. 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.”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 161

30 December 2025

///obey.beams.starting

“Hello, I’m Trevor, and this is episode one‑six‑one of the Virtual Cassette Library—which also happens to be my 900th mix show. I’m not entirely sure how that happened, but here we are. Today’s theme is Obey Beams Starting—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. Early on you’ll hear Night Birds by The Inventors of Aircraft—an exclusive from the upcoming Whitelabrecs compilation sleeplaboratory6.0. Always a pleasure to be able to share something before it officially takes flight.
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 rest of the show wanders through winter light, spectral electronics, Casio memories, kosmische detours, festive oddities, and the occasional unexpected left‑turn. 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.”
