Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 257
Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Apologies for the sound quality today. I’m on holidays and find it hard to hard to get a spot quiet enough to record. Anyway…
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 257. 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 mystical, elemental, and introspective ambient journey through light, water, time, and deep space.
Side A moves from beacon magic and burning waters into glade mornings, rising energy, and druidic sacredness. Side B rolls through time carpets, anchoring resilience, ocean overlooks, deeper dreams, and reduced space walks.
Overall mood: Contemplative, wondrous, and atmospheric with a strong sense of vastness and quiet power. Perfect for deep listening, nature connection, or late-night immersion.
I’ve gone back to doing more podcast like episodes but I’ll do all the talking now as I put a lot of love into making seamless segued mixes. There is just one break halfway through to give the “virtual cassette” meaning. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my too few subscribers who get to enjoy the 257 episodes plus the 819 other shows whenever they like all for the price of… I actually don’t know what you can buy for €3 anymore. It used to be a coffee.
Episode 257 is based on an exclusive soothing drone track “arc gap” by Tallinn, Estonia based “Paul Beaudoin” from the release “signal loss” coming out on Dragon’s Eye Recordings on the 10th of July.
On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Italian artist M. Beckmann aka The Volume Settings Folder with his improvised stylings from a release on the one of a kind ambient whitelabrecs label.
Rays of light in the form of Bahram Bahrami, Ross Bartlett, and Daniel Field who are Bahrambient, Retland, and Kilometre Club respectively.
My Greek mate Substak with a lesson in field recordings from a Sounds for the Soul Records compilation.
The only beat driven track of the show from Belgian artist Felix Machtelinckx on celebration of the rising sun with Subexotic Records
Finishing the A side is a track from an album based on Risorgimento period samples clipped by Michele Andreotti out on Lᴏɴᴛᴀɴᴏ Series.
Side B gives us inner and out space exploration from Oregon based Modular Synth artist Bart Hawkins.
A meditative soundscape from Melbourne based friend Willebrant who’s sneaked into the mix twice.
Then after the inspired Paul Beaudoin track we drift into a legend of the scene and one I’ve never been able to make contact with. Lee Anthony Norris, here as one of his many alter egos Moss Garden It’s available on lots of places including Fantasy Enhancing, Neotantra and NATURE BLISS.
Penultimately from Trittau, Germany is Christian Fiesel with a release on Cyclical Dreams.
Ending the show is the drone collaboration of Sunil Kumar Sharma aka Suseti and Karl Willebrant again with a Willebrant self release from last year.
But Starting us off Rotterdam based artist Ard Bit is searching for a connection beyond the surface with the track “Fanal Magic” from the album “Juxtaposed”. Out on the Dutch Drunarium sub label Derde. Enjoy…
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

1 December 2025
Evening all. Episode one-four-nine of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Window Invented Drain. That’s the track you can 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. Ninety minutes here, two virtual sides, forty-five minutes each. Fifteen tracks per set. No chatter, no interruptions. The music rolls on like a festival stage that turns—one act fading, another coming into view.
Tonight you’ll hear an exclusive from Paul Beaudoin with Ümlaut. Also music from Bruno Bavota, Wil Bolton, and a track that has disappeared from a release by The Form Group. Later on, another exclusive from Foster Neville. Rival Consoles, Erik Wøllo, and dogs versus shadows are in the mix. Plus a track by zerosummer which I can’t seem to locate—drop a comment if you know. Labels like whitelabrecs, Mahorka, and Third Kind Records are part of the current orbit, each one feeding into this library of sound.
If you’d like to be part of these missions, send your work to trevlad@gmail.com. Track links are at trevor.se, and marked in the Mixcloud timeline. The eighth TVCL album is on Bandcamp for pre-order—it drops when we hit sixteen tracks.
