Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 269
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-269/
Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 269. A 12 track virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
If you make music, or are a label, and would like to be featured, send your file links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Please leave a tip and subscribe to the Mixcloud channel every little helps.
A quiet, transitional ambient journey through seasonal shifts, emerging light, and peaceful valleys.
Side A drifts between seasons, vast multitudes, falling chimes, and tape endings. Side B settles into valleys of peace, soft flocks, watchful ravens, precise night hours, fleeting warmth, and ends on a lonely dirt road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, gentle, and slightly melancholic — full of soft transitions and quiet spaces. Perfect for deep listening, meditation, or peaceful solitude.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 1 094 other shows whenever they like.
As a subscriber you also get access to my new series Veil Frequencies based on a fictional world I’ve created called The Resonant Veil Enclave. Each episode is around three hours and recorded from one of the floors of the 24 buildings in the veil. You can read about it on my Substack page. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.
On this TVCL episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by French composer Thomas Méreur under the name Heÿkla and the soothing drones of the track titled “There Might Be Millions Of Them” from the album “Echoes of Loneliness” out on the Driftworks label.
This is followed by a show exclusive cosmic floating track from maps and diagrams titled “tonal fall-Chime 2.0 [fragmnt]” from the upcoming release “beneath still stars“ dropping August 7 on the handstitched* label.
Then, Bristol’s finest, Jon Worsley, aka, Jilk and the textured atmospherics of the track “End Of Tape” from the album “Tetsuo II” out on Champion of Glasgow label Bricolage.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by Manchester based artist Barry Smethurst aka Apta and a live take of his track “Emerge” from the 2025 release “Live @ Aviva Studios Manchester. 04/12/25” This track contains the only vocals on this episode, nice one Barry.
Finishing off the first half, friend of the airwaves, Cadis, Spain based, David Cordero and suspended atmospheres in the track titled “Segunda Linea” (Second Line) from the 2025 album “Numen” which means Divine Power in Latin.
But first, to set the vibe is the artist who got himself on this episode a few times by being super prolific, sending me material, and also by doing a collaboration with UK based artist Ian Hawgood, who mastered the previous played track and album. This is the blissful waves of Ian Hawgood & David Cordero in the piece “Between Seasons” from the album “Shifting Times” which is out on Davids’ own label Noray Records.
Now settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
One side flip, just the music.
Welcome sonic travellers to the B side. Six tracks down and six to go.
You’ll hear the unmistakble sound of Jogging House in his track “Flock” from the 2025 album “Kiosk” out on artist currated super label Seil Records.
This is followed by Michael Cottone better known as The Green Kingdom and the guitar based ambient piece Raven from his stunning new release titled “Vespera” which means Evening in Esperanto. Thats out on a label that’s heavily on rotation here at the enclave. Whitelabrecs.
After that another live take this time by synth wizard Martin Stürtzer in the longest track of the episode clocking in at 21 minutes the space adventure piece “22:27” from the album “Dyson Sphere Beta“. A three hour live improvisation for Martins Birthday stream from 2025.
Then the penultimate track for today comes in the form of another Noray Records release from the compilation album “Aunque llegue la mañana · Refracted” (Even If Morning Comes) where 11 artists reinterprete the album by Raúl Cantizano & David Cordero this is the piece “Fugaz” (Fleeting) by Agustín Mena aka Warmth.
Finishing us off is San Diego, California based Phil Geraldi and the multilinear track “Lifeless Down a Dirt Road” from his vinyl debut album “Rural Deceased Undiscovered” out on Not Not Fun Records.
But first, a track from 2018 by Bali, Indonesia based artist Blank Embrace and the vaporscape tones of the track “Valley of Peace” from the album “Ascension” out on the Kaiseki Digital label.

Right Balance Mirage
Music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that appears somewhere inside the set itself. This episode titled Right Balance Mirage is based on the track You Are On The Right Track by Danalogue, from the album Teleportations, which comes out on May 29 via the channel champion label Castles In Space. All the other tracks happened to just fit the vibe.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 154
11 December 2025
“Greetings all. Episode one-five-four of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Decide Views Packages. That’s the track you hear underneath, and it’s also a location you can find on a map. I filmed it—it’s up on YouTube if you’re curious.
I’m Trevor, presenting ninety minutes, two virtual sides, fifteen tracks each. Tonight you’ll hear Ranga on Secuencias Temporales, Augen from Womblabel, and FernLodge via Unexplained Sounds Group.

On the B side, Dolphins of Venice on Mahorka, Ekoplekz, Portland Vows, and my own track Project Admire Spreads drift through the signal. Jah Wobble, Kid Spatula, and Pyramids of Phobos add echoes of spoken word, IDM, and hauntological soundscapes.
Labels orbiting here include Adventurous Music, Cyclical Dreams, Third Kind Records, Wormhole World, and Balmat. Styles range from ambient and deep techno to ritual electronics, kosmische, jazz-funk, and experimental sound art. These transmissions stretch across places—Mexico City, Lisbon, Leipzig, Glasgow, and Uppsala—woven into the resonance of the library.
