Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Greetings ye combers of the sound waves and welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library, episode 182. I’m Trevor and I’ll be gently guiding you through twenty artists and their musical endeavours tonight. If you’re new here, welcome; otherwise, welcome back. A quick shout out to the latest followers: Tiago Catarino who may or may not be into Lego, Rohima Afruza who is a Brighton-based DJ, and foremanmonique from New Mexico, United States. Thanks guys—you keep the signal strong. This episode has set a new record for the channel: Six exclusive tracks at the time of recording. My handful of subscribers are some of the few souls on the planet who have heard these yet. How? I’ve started dropping music-only preview mixes of the shows before the chat version hits the air—that’s the secret handshake. The exclusives come from Swimming Lesson, TOMC, The Metamorph, Martin Archer & Claire McAllister, Isograph (who is actually the same artist behind Swimming Lesson), and Oberlin. Who else joins the lineup? You’ll just have to settle in and listen. Let’s ease into the flow.
We start the episode with the first exclusive which was actually released back in October on the Castles In Space Subscription Library so a few of you will know this one by Darryl Wakelin here as one of his alter egos *Swimming Lesson. This is A Penchant for Experiments from the album Home Electronics Picture a dimly lit garage in a 1970s suburb, fairy lights strung across shelves of salvaged radios and half-built circuit boards, the faint glow of a soldering iron as tiny sparks dance like fireflies in the dusk.
And now the best thing that’s ever happened to this channel Mr. Gareth Evans aka HDRF. His support and above all his direct action on my request for sending in his story for the new show Chord Confessions. In fact the previous artist Swimming Lesson and other artists I’ve played are a direct result of Gareths passion and action in the community. HDRF – Everybody Melts (for Miquette) from the album Ephemerama 1 (self-released via HDRF’s Bandcamp) A slow dissolve of coloured wax under heat, pooling into soft iridescent shapes on a windowsill as afternoon light filters through rain-streaked glass, everything quietly surrendering to warmth.
Solar 76 – Arctan from the album Sun Angle on Castle In Spaces’ Lunar Module imprint. Late golden hour on a coastal cliff path, the sun hanging low and casting long geometric shadows across concrete sea defences, waves below folding in perfect mathematical curves. A very different, yet familiar release from the label. Get your House moves on.
Now most of the music I play on the show is either NYP releases, or sent in by the artists or by the labels. This next track is the latter. *TOMC – You Are Balearic from the album Blue Era Odyssey. Releasing via channel champion Mystery Circles on the 3 of March. Open-top car cruising a winding island road at twilight, salt air rushing past, palm fronds silhouetted against a sky bleeding from azure to deep indigo, distant lights beginning to wink on.
Now another track from the outstanding and highly original label Cities and Memory. Neil Foster – Yeyi (Central African Republic) from the album A Century of Sounds. This track is from the NYP version on Bandcamp and one of the 100 pieces chosen for this 13 track release. Dense rainforest canopy parting just enough for shafts of sunlight to hit moss-covered earth, the air thick with calls of unseen birds and the low rhythmic pulse of life moving unseen.
Gustavo Denouard – Whispers from the album Echoes of the Cosmos on Projekt Records Vast empty observatory dome at night, telescope lens reflecting a scattering of stars, faint cosmic radio static crackling like whispers from galaxies long ago.
Now another great friend of the show, Gavin Brick aka The Metamorph. This is the third exclusive for the episode. Gavin has received the physical CDs for his upcoming release From Cobalt to Aquamarine. I’ve always loved Gavin music and this sees a bit of a change in direction. It’s more introspective and is quickly becoming a favourite on repeat around the house. I believe this will be the first release from his new studio in Liverpool. Keep your eye on his Bandcamp page for the official release date. *The Metamorph – Cobalt Deep underwater cave lit only by bioluminescent streaks of electric blue, slow currents carrying flecks of mineral that catch the light like floating sapphires.
Next the fourth exclusive of the show. *Martin Archer & Claire McAllister – Underground from the album Mast Year dropping on the Discus Music label on the 27th of March. There are loads of names to look forward to on this collage style release. Dimly lit subway tunnel after hours, Claires floating improvised vocals and gentle jazz phrasings will take you underground.
Now let’s get industrial with some sub bass foundation. The penultimate track of this first half. Wahn – A Place Slightly Wrong from the album Echo Mist Light on the Mahorka label. Fog rolling across an abandoned industrial yard at dawn, rusted machinery half-submerged in mist, everything familiar yet shifted just a degree out of alignment.
We end the A side with Corvid One Cassette – REST from the album Two on a label to keep you radar tuned to, Black Pylon. A Cassette label curated by Lee Pylon and Nicholas Langley. A single raven perched on a cracked cassette tape case in an empty room, feathers ruffled by a draught from an open window, the world outside hushed.
B Side –
We open this half with the living legend, Hainbach – BTM Blau from the album Tagwerk on Spanish label, Industrial Complexx. Analogue workbench at midnight, the Crumar DS-2, an early Italian synthesiser, pulsing gently as if the machine itself is dreaming.
Now Bruce Magill aka Low Altitude – Dan Y Wernen from the whitelabrecs compilation masterpiece Shades Welsh hillside at dusk, ancient stone wall curving into mist, wind carrying faint echoes of folk memory across heather and gorse.
Next I get to play one of my own pieces as no-one else will. In the intro, outro and scattered through each episode I create background soundscapes. When I’ve created 16 episodes I release them as an album. The three word titles of each piece are also geotags for spots on the planet that I have some sort of personal connection with. For example the title of this episode and the background you’re listening to now is situated.bike.guides which is the geographical location of the entrance to Omnipollos Church in Sundbyberg Stockholm. A Brewery and bar, creating some of the best craft beer on the planet. The title of this track is from the patch of grass outside my apartment. Enter any of the track titles from my albums and you can virtually stalk me. Anyway this is me, Trevlad – Hits Enjoyable Amended from the album TVCL-09 Old mixing desk in a cosy attic studio, faders worn smooth from years of use, fairy lights twinkling above stacks of cassettes like a private constellation.
Now a release right up my alley. I love this sound, it reminds me of the 70s Canterbury sound of Dave Stewart. Passepartout Duo – From Tbilisi from the album Pieces from Places Narrow cobblestone street in old Tbilisi at golden hour, balcony flowers spilling over iron railings, distant church bells mingling with street musicians.
Now the fifth exclusive track from *Isograph – The Telling of the Bees [same artist as Swimming Lesson, keeping traditions alive in sound] Traditional beehive in a quiet garden at sunrise, bees humming in low golden light, keeper in veil gently lifting a frame, the hive whispering ancient secrets. This is from the first Isograph release which will see light of day later in the year. Here’s what Darryl told me about the track. “The telling of the bees is an old tradition from when lots of rural families kept a beehive for honey, propolis, etc. They would tell the bees about family news (births, deaths, etc.), which I think is just a beautiful thing to do, making the bees part of the family. The track is about all sides of that – the family news, and then at the scale of the bees hearing the news, and the whole thing is an attempt to reflect the lovely connection/regard for nature in this idea.” Cheer for that.
Now another artist I could probably contact for a coffee if I ever was in Edinburgh. Exit Chamber – We Can Get There Simply By Surviving (Previously Unreleased) from the album The Passed Year 2025 on a global collective of artists known as Passed Recordings. The Bandcamp page says they’re based in Uppsala Sweden but I haven’t figured out what the connection is. Anyway, Cracked pavement after rain, small green shoot pushing through concrete, resilient and quiet, the city noise fading into a hopeful hush.
Next described as being constructed to elicit feelings of calm, to unearth hazy memories of early innocence, and to lure the chaotic mind into the woods of sleep. Glass Hive – Mother Of Many from the album Glass Hive EP Hive mind of glass shards catching light in a sunlit room, reflections multiplying endlessly, fragile yet infinite.
Now the sixth exclusive which will see light of day on 6 March. *Oberlin – Never Take It For Granted from the album The Gold Pit Sessions Vol. 2 out on German label oscarson. Open window on a spring morning, curtains billowing softly, sounds drifting in with the scent of fresh earth, everything ordinary and miraculous.
Next an all time favourite artist of mine. The penultimate track of the show. Sébastien Tellier – Un Dimanche en Famille from the album Kiss the Beast Lazy Sunday table in a sun-dappled kitchen, half-eaten croissants, laughter echoing off tiled walls, time stretching elastic and warm. Available through Because Music & Horizons.

This is Sunshine Grove by SubDan from the album Moments of Joy out on Nottingham, UK’s Remnants label.
Now, The track time, running away from you by HUNGER A lone figure standing motionless on an empty midnight highway as the taillights of a departing car stretch into vanishing red threads, while slow, decaying synth drones and fractured rhythmic pulses chase each other in futile pursuit, freezing the ache of irreversible loss in a single, elongating breath of experimental electronic melancholy. This is HUNGER with the track time, running away from you from the album declined out on Leipzig, Germany’s Adventurous Music
Next, The track Tripping Soldiers 2 by Dark Fidelity Hi Fi (from Bricolage’s underground Glasgow electronic label) A squad of spectral soldiers marching in slow, hallucinatory lockstep through a fog-choked, neon-lit alley at 3 a.m., their boots echoing into warped, stuttering breaks and gritty, acid-flecked synth stabs that bend reality like melting film reels, freezing the surreal vertigo of a chemically unraveling night patrol in a single, looping breath of shadowy, tripped-out dubbed melancholy. This is Tripping Soldiers 2 by Dark Fidelity Hi Fi from a couple of places one of them being Bricolage’s Paradigm (10 Year Label Sampler)
Now Akira Film Script, Graham Seaman, Mosaicist, Percolator and Justin Amphlett – This Burnished Land The collaborative expanse of This Burnished Land A vast, sun-scorched prairie at golden hour where ancient mosaic fragments embedded in cracked earth glow like buried memories, while layered drones and subtle field-recorded winds weave a slow, collective breath of timeless, burnished serenity suspended in amber light. This Burnished Land by Akira Film Script, Graham Seaman, Mosaicist, Percolator and Justin Amphlett from the, must have, compilation album This Burnished Land out on whitelabrecs
Next aug16 by ff8282 A deserted summer rooftop at dusk in late August, empty cassette tapes scattered like fallen leaves as faint, lo-fi synth pulses and fragmented tape warbles drift upward into a fading orange sky, capturing the quiet, nostalgic drift of a single fleeting day dissolving into static eternity. From the stable of 4000 Records label ff8282 and the track aug16 from the album No Statue.
“A Wound Kisser by Dunya A dimly lit apartment at midnight, where soft ambient tendrils curl like gentle fingers tracing an old scar on pale skin, the slow-healing ache blooming into hushed, shimmering layers of forgiveness frozen in an intimate exhale of wounded light. From Vilnius, Lithuania’s Amulet of Tears label I give you Dunya with A Wound Kisser from the album **Pay It Forward **.
**Take Me There – Totte (a reflection on childhood) originally from the album *Nine Reflections: Music For Cats* “Totte (a reflection on childhood)” A sun-dappled backyard sandbox long abandoned, where a child’s forgotten toy cat sits amid drifting dandelion seeds and gentle, nostalgic drones that lap like warm summer memories against the porch steps, freezing the soft pang of innocence receding into quiet feline contemplation.

Land of the Endless by joe nora An unbroken horizon of rolling golden dunes under a perpetual twilight, where sparse, piano motifs and subtle string horizons stretch outward forever, locking the serene vertigo of boundless solitude in an unresolving breath of eternal drift. This is Land of the Endless by Joe Nora from the album Puzzle Face available through Los Angeles, California’s Friends Of Friends label.
uami step by raays A bioluminescent jungle clearing at cosmic dawn, where shimmering synth pads and off-kilter jazz-inflected beats pulse like fireflies in slow-motion syncopation, freezing the euphoric fusion of earthly roots and weightless space jungle levitation in glowing stride. This is raays with uami step from the EP Plaays out on LEAVING RECORDS.
desert ambient by applecore A lone saguaro silhouette against a blood-orange sunset over endless sand, where minimal, heat-warped drones and distant wind howls ripple like mirages across cracked earth, capturing the austere, meditative vastness of isolation distilled into scorching breath. applecore with desert ambient from the album contact at the deep bottom out on Bulgaria’s Mahorka label.
We end the first half and first side of this virtual cassette with Monolit K by Gelbart A colossal black obelisk rising from cracked concrete in an abandoned Eastern European industrial yard at dawn, its surface humming with deep, resonant modular synth throbs and metallic echoes that reverberate into infinity, freezing the enigmatic weight of forgotten futures in an unyielding pulse. Gelbart with Monolit K from the album Gelbart-TK-745 out on Berlin, Germany’s Kitchen Leg records. Catch you on the flip side.
Starting us off this half “Transmission 18 by Wojciech Golczewski A derelict satellite dish pointed skyward in a snowy midnight field, receiving faint, crackling cosmic signals through swelling retro-synth waves and distant static bursts, suspending the lonely vigil of interstellar longing in a glacial sweep. Wojciech Golczewski with Transmission 18 from the album End Of Transmission 3 available through Marseille, France’s Data Airlines label.
Väntan by Gustav Davidsson Frost-covered birch trees standing silent along a frozen Swedish lake at first light, where sparse, glacial ambient tones and soft harmonic swells drift like breath on glass, freezing the quiet anticipation of spring’s distant promise in a crystalline pause. This is Gustav Davidsson with Väntan from another great whitelbrecs compilation celebrating their 10-year anniversary Shades.
Pollinator Project Pt. 4 – Entomophily by Loopatronica. A sunlit wildflower meadow alive with bees in ecstatic slow-motion orbit, their wings blurring into intricate looping rhythms and organic electronic pulses that hum in symbiotic harmony, locking the vibrant dance of pollination into a nectar-drenched view. This is Loopatronica with Pollinator Project Pt. 4 – Entomophily from the album Pollinator Project out on Moolakii Club Audio Interface.
Let Me by Djrum Rain streaked city windows at 4 a.m., reflecting blurred neon as intricate breakbeats and soulful piano fragments plead through dense, atmospheric layers, capturing the intimate ache of unspoken desire suspended in rain-lashed heartbeats. This is Djrum with Let Me from the albumUnder Tangled Silence out on London, UK’s Houndstooth label.
Movement Implies Convergence by Substak + LR Friberg Converging railway tracks vanishing into a misty horizon at twilight, where pulsing modular sequences and converging field drones pull forward in relentless gravity, freezing the philosophical inevitability of paths uniting in a forward-leaning flow. Substak + LR Friberg with Movement Implies Convergence from the album The White Between Words another great release from the Mahorka label.
Blanket Song by Kikagaku Moyo A threadbare wool blanket spread under stars on a summer hillside, where psych-folk guitars wrap around soft, wandering melodies like shared warmth, capturing the simple comfort of stargazing companionship in an enveloping sigh. Kikagaku Moyo/幾何学模様 with Blanket Song from the album Masana Temples out on Fukuoka, Japan’s Guruguru Brain label.
Office Olympics by Dolphins of Venice Fluorescent-lit cubicles transformed into a surreal arena at after-hours, where quirky synth bounces and playful beats turn staplers into javelins and printers into hurdles, freezing the gleeful rebellion of corporate daydreams in a single, mischievous leap. This is Dolphins of Venice with Office Olympics from the album Captains of Industry another great Mahorka label release.
The penultimate track of the show now. Sub-Aura (2025 Remaster) by Ian Boddy & Chris Carter Underwater aurora lights shimmering through deep ocean currents at midnight, where vintage analog modular synth waves undulate in slow, hypnotic layers, locking the submerged glow of hidden electromagnetic realms in a breath of cosmic tranquility. Ian Boddy & Chris Carter with Sub-Aura (2025 Remaster) from the album Caged (25th Anniversary Edition) out on Ian Boddy curated label DiN.
So just one track to go and, before you do go, I need you to send me your stories for the Chord Confessions series. I need a song or piece of music that has meant something special to you for some reason. I’ll play the music and say nice things about you and tell your tale on the airwaves.
Spontaneous Reduction by Hverheij A falling snowflake caught mid-descent in a vast white void, where sparse, reductive tones and micro-shifts in texture gradually simplify into near-silence, capturing the elegant inevitability of everything distilling to essence in a vanishing exhale.

Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator. A sonic journey with a metaphysical flip at the halfway mark—perfect for a long walk, a mental wander, or a quiet moment alone with the universe. So, settle in. Let the kettle boil. Let the cat sleep. Let the world spin without you for a while. We float tonight through drifts of ambient electronic, modular wanderings, dubwise echoes, some art rock angles, leftfield pop inflections, drone undertows, and the odd burst of experimental pop. Places flicker by: Wormhole World gatherings, Republic of Music corners, Castles in Space haunts, Invisible Inc. pathways, Four Flies shadows, and points scattered from Lancashire to Vilnius, Munich to Mexico City. The longest stretch in the selection comes from Caught in Joy – Elsewhere, a patient unravelling that lingers in the mind. The shortest snaps past in a flash with Allmanna Town – Sample 24, not even reaching the minute mark. We begin with Dubberrookie and Winter Weather, a seasonal drift from A Wormhole Xmas 2025 on Wormhole World. Chilled dub pulses meet wintry synth haze, gentle echoes folding into themselves like snow settling on rooftops. Headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the frequencies claim you.
Dubberrookie – Winter Weather. Dubberrookie will appear on my upcoming compilation “Puzzles of the Psyche”. There’s still time. Send in your entries by March 25. Now Floating Points with Precursor, the bonus unreleased cut from the Elaenia 10 Year Anniversary on the Republic of Music label. Sparse piano gestures meet subtle electronic undercurrents, a quiet prelude that breathes slow and deliberate.
Floating Points – Precursor. Next up Bahia Brazil based artist – Navin Kala offers Vijf from Spinoza on a favourite label of the show Mystery Circles. Minimalist piano lines trace thoughtful paths, space around each note allowing contemplation to gather.
Navin Kala – Vijf. A reminder now if you have a piece of music that has meant a lot to you for some reason tell me about it. I’m putting together a new show called “Chord Confessions” and I need some tales behind the most important music ever released. PM me on the socials or email me trevlad@gmail.com Now back to the show. Now amping up the drone. Stewart Keller brings Disheveled Zen from the whopping 100 track 2020-2025 Archives. Loosened field recordings and soft electronics tangle in a relaxed, almost accidental calm.
Stewart Keller – Disheveled Zen. Here’s me Trevlad with Curving Archive Scales from the Trick or Treat 4 compilation on Sounds for the Soul. Archive dust and curving scales weave a long, meditative thread, time marked in subtle modular shifts.
Trevlad – Curving Archive Scales. Just a quick shout out to the latest followers Bernt Haas, who I believe is part of the Cries from the LTN outfit. Also Liquid Shape and The Tall Librarian. Thanks for the follow. Now Mexico City based artists Eafhm and Mwamwa collaborate on Luzne (Mwamwa Part) from the split release on Secuencias Temporales. Dubby bass hums beneath fragmented vocal traces, a hazy half-step wander.
Eafhm, Mwamwa – Luzne (Mwamwa Part). And now for something completely different. Deerhoof deliver L’Amour Stories from Apple O’ on Joyful Noise Recordings. Quick, angular art rock bursts with playful yelps and tight rhythmic jabs.
Deerhoof – L’Amour Stories. Garda slips in Substratum from S-Lyga on the Neotantra label. Deep drone layers build slow atmospheric weight, substratum textures rumbling low.
Garda – Substratum. Now time to punk it up. Tinned Meats present Caught in the Wild from Kilter on I Heart Noise. Raw edges meet noisy propulsion, caught somewhere between garage grit and wilder impulses. Mad stuff…
Tinned Meats – Caught in the Wild. And now Keith Seatman with Tonight’s Guests Are? from the forthcoming Counting to Ten Then Back Again on Castles in Space. Radiophonic quirks and psych-folk fragments evoke childhood games and firework packaging memories, playful yet oddly disorienting. Keith Seatman – Tonight’s Guests Are?
The Polish legend of Coconut Creek, Caught in Joy closes Side A with Elsewhere. Karol is the most prolific Berlin school artist on the planet. He produces so much quality music on a weekly basis. Which he records live and can be witnessed on his Youtube channel. Analogue drooling adventures. The track Elsewhere is from the release Colorfield. Self released back in mid December. Karol has released 4 albums since then just for some perspective. This is Analogue coloured space drifts to close out the first side of the show.
Side B We turn the cassette. If you have something you want featured on the shows lease don’t be shy. I’m not on a schedule which means I get to do shows several times a week, which means you won’t have to wait long to hear your music here. Here’s a label that does just that from the fantastic Italian label Four Flies Records. Chiaré opens with Ago e Filo from the album Sei. Italian library echoes meet modern restraint, strings and subtle grooves threading through.
Chiaré – Ago e Filo. Now LOULA YORKE shares The Hidden Messages in Water (Live at the Mount Without) from Live Compendium 2 on Truxalis. Live-captured modular meditations unfold with quiet intensity, water-like ripples expanding.
LOULA YORKE – The Hidden Messages in Water (Live at the Mount Without). Next another artist who has contributed in the past to my compilations the fantastic The Music Liberation Front Sweden who arrive with A Lot Of Things Ain’t Changing from their collection on Third Kind Records. Warped pop edges bend familiar shapes into something skewed and resilient.
The Music Liberation Front Sweden – A Lot Of Things Ain’t Changing. And Now Higamos Hogamos rework Re-Exit (GK Machine Dub Voyager) from Voyager Dubs on Glasgows Invisible, Inc. Deep dub transformations stretch the original into cavernous space.
Higamos Hogamos – Re-Exit (GK Machine Dub Voyager). Francesca Guccione offers Mechanical Promenade from Connected 3 on IUWE Records. Mechanical rhythms promenade alongside delicate electric piano, a poised mechanical dance. A wonderful must have compilation celebrating 9 of the best female experimental electronic out there. In fact the entire label focuses on the beauty of female diversity in electronic music. Enjoy.
Francesca Guccione – Mechanical Promenade. Komodo Kolektif follow with Disciple Of The Drone (GK Machine Disciple Of The Dub) also from that Voyager Dubs compilation on Invisible, Inc. Drone devotion meets dub disciple rites, heavy and hypnotic. Invisible, Inc. is a label I wish I could play more of on the channel, and just can’t for financial reasons. They are great so if you can grab some of their beautiful physical releases.
Komodo Kolektif – Disciple Of The Drone (GK Machine Disciple Of The Dub). Now friend of the show Russian artist Ndorfik contributes Tahvi from Solos on People Can Listen. 5/8 Idm explorations carve sparse, introspective paths. Ndorfik has enlightened me on the fact that Mixcloud is not available without streaming through VPNs in his neck of the woods. So I send him the files of past shows so he can spread the good word.
Ndorfik – Tahvi. Now the penultimate track and two masters of the ambient scene. Rhucle & Arbee bring Mournful Sky from Plain on David Cordero curated label Noray Records. Mournful ambient skies drift with gentle melancholy, field-like textures breathing slow.
Rhucle & Arbee – Mournful Sky. Material for future shows is always welcome. Send your vibrations to trevlad@gmail.com. Purchase paths glow at trevor.se and in each show’s timeline. Until the next cassette turns. Trevor, signing off from Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 178. I leave you with the very short track Sample 24 by Allmanna Town Allmanna Town is Phil Dodds who runs the amazing Waxing Crescent Records and my fellow Stockholm dweller Jonas Geiger Ohlin of The New Emphatic fame. this track is from Rodents out on their own Bandcamp imprint. Sampled fragments glitch and reform in rodent-quick bursts. And that fades us out. Cheerio…
EXPANSIVE WAVES — EPISODE 23 11 February 2026 Good evening, or morning, or whatever fragment of time you’ve found yourself in. This is Expansive Waves, episode twenty-three. I’m Trevor—your host, your guide, your occasional sonic conspirator. Tonight’s 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 a vast, unfolding live session that feels like drifting through forgotten orbital debris.
This is Secret Nuclear with Omega Redux. A NYP 45-minute live recording of six pieces from last summer, first heard on Kate Bosworth’s DARK TRAIN radio show. Broadcast on 21 July 2025. Layered with approach vectors, shadows, and extended consoles. Breathe it in.
That was Secret Nuclear, Omega Redux, straight from WHI Recordings. If you’re just joining us, this is Expansive Waves 23. No rush. We’re only getting started. Next, another fresh live capture and another NYP release as that is what this channels budget allows, from the legends who practically invented this space. Recorded last August in Poland. Another long one at 32 and a half minutes. Tangerine Dream — Katowice Session 2025. Over half an hour of pulsing sequences, violin drifts, and piano echoes. Let it carry you.
Tangerine Dream, live from Katowice. Timeless, isn’t it? We’re about a third through the evening now, but time doesn’t really apply here. From Pennsylvania, a solitary reflection on endings and endurance. Matthew Nowik — (we have) 5 years left. A slow-burning meditation on what might remain. Synth layers that feel like watching clouds dissolve. Another NYP release. I feel a pattern forming here.
Matthew Nowik. Quiet truth there in every sustain. Thanks for staying with me. We move to Greece now. Piano meeting granular skies. Giannis Gogos — Ambedo (part 2). Twenty-one minutes of attentive stillness from the recent Ambedo release on Whitelabrecs. The quiet attention that art still needs. This is not a NYP release as whitelabrec sponsors the channel with the best ambient releases out there.
Giannis Gogos. Ambedo—sinking into the moment until the edges blur. Shifting tones now. A sense of deep belonging amid the haze. Cries from the LTN — Belonging To. Title track from the EP. Extended, enveloping, like finding home in the drift. Shout out to Marcus from Cries from the LTN for sending this in. The EP is an innovative audio-visual collaboration between Birmingham based contemporary artist Tara Harris and experimental musical ensemble Cries From the LTN.
Cries from the LTN. Belonging isn’t always loud. From Meanjin/Brisbane, Australia—a wavelength tamer reworking melancholy into vast space. Inspired by a single, heartbreaking scene from The Sopranos. This is the track doir from the new album No Statue, freshly re-recorded after life turned sideways. Raw, drenched in melancholy. Monumental. Released just yesterday on 4000 records. ff8282 — doir.
ff8282 there with the sparkling new release No Statue that was the longest piece doir. Six tracks gone. Only two remaining. The shortest track of the episode now and only just making the 12 minute cut at 12:12. Cassette territory next. Black Pylon’s world of field recordings and calls. This is Corvid One Cassette — MOBBING CALLS. From the album Two. Corvids circling, warnings in the air, stretched into drone. This is the second release from the label Black Pylon. Definitely a label to follow and watch out for.
Corvids know something we don’t. Maybe that’s why it lingers. And now, as we approach the final silence, a few words before we vanish again. Thanks for sticking around. Really. These episodes aren’t designed for mass consumption, and neither are you. I’ll be back when the wind changes or the tape runs out—whichever comes first. No schedule, no promises. Waves, that’s all we have. If you liked what you heard, support the artists. Buy their music. Whisper their names into the void. It helps. You can stream this episode on Mixcloud at djsofabed/expansive-waves-23, and find all the links and credits on the episode page at trevor.se. Drop a comment if you feel moved. Or don’t. Silence is underrated. Until next time—stay resonant, stay expansive, and let the soundtrack of the universe find you. And finally, as we near the horizon—an unreleased study, fresh from Adventurous Music. Out in a few days, but you hear it here first. Unless you’re listening after February 16th. Iván Muela — Drone Study X. From the forthcoming Ibidem II. Pure, patient exploration.

“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.
