Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 294
www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-294/
Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves at the halfway mark.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A ritual, slightly archival ambient journey through cave light, crystal devotion, and lost scrolls.
Side A opens in misfit forest worlds and frog-voiced infinity, then rises from empty Berlin-school air into Sagan-bright crystal strings, Adonia keyboards, and Pan Am polaroid ritual. Side B propagates Greek debut tones, shuffles a side-hustle co-op, unrolls Mossilon’s unfinished archive, lets sandalwood pulse over a vanished ocean, crowns a snow queen, and asks tomorrow to wait.
Overall mood: Contemplative, faintly mythic, and warmly analogue — full of restored tape, short illuminated paths, and memory that arrives as photographs. Perfect for late listening, quiet ritual, or letting the next day stay outside the room.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers receive the expanding series of 3-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
The tape unspools its visions.

A gentle, dream-facing ambient journey through insectile moonlight, library warmth, and far-shore destinations.
Side A weaves moonflower percussion and analogue arrival into placid Italian night, New Mexico autumn weather, infinite healing time, and a lullaby held behind rain-glass. Side B opens with a whistle toward emotion, then settles into open dusk sky, eleven minutes of analogue hope, close string resonance, a voyage to Beta Virginis, and memory finding water again.
Overall mood: Soft, hopeful, and quietly celestial — full of dusk light, small window-reflections, and patient unfolding. Perfect for twilight listening, falling asleep, or sitting with what still waits on the far shore.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes.

The tape unspools its visions.
00:01:17 Polypores – Moonflower

Good day, listeners… or should I say, travellers of the tape.
Trevor here. You’ve just pressed play on another fragile spool of the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 274. A twelve-track virtual cassette that flips itself at the halfway mark, whether you’re ready or not.
If you make music, or run a label, and fancy a place in the library, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.
Tips and subscriptions keep the reels turning. Every little helps the library stay open after dark.
A textured, slightly nocturnal ambient journey through quiet intensity, natural shifts, and digital calm.
Side A moves from prowling glass and sea changes into moonlight grass, barrel flowers, reduced beats, and deep geological time. Side B drifts through wormeries, rushing ascent, liquid amber circles, grid edges, digital meditation, and ends on an old road.
Overall mood: Contemplative, atmospheric, and gently dynamic — blending organic warmth with subtle tension and quiet modern stillness. Perfect for late-evening listening, deep focus, or peaceful immersion.
I’ll introduce Side A now. Side B will wait for the intermission, as is tradition.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,101 other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes. Subscribers also receive the expanding series Veil Frequencies, recorded floor-by-floor inside the 24 buildings of a place called the Resonant Veil Enclave. They also get the ever-growing advance version of the forthcoming compilation Quiet Figures.
Side A
On this episode you’ll hear the sprawling and inventive side-project of Suncastle’s George Evans and Kristofer Thomas aka Paris Texas who together call themselves Glass Roots. Yes it’s an older release from 2020 but as it’s on Triplicate records it means that it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp. Which suits my unimployed world. Anyway the track is a stomping Idm piece titled “Panther Loud” from the album “The Idiot”. Go grab it for as little as you can.
Then a dose of slapped bass in a wonderful track titled “Sea Change” by friend of the shows Emily Sobool, aka Socool who has teamed up with Paul Griffin and released a collection of tunes under the name “Dreams & Riddles”
Next, another team up with Elizabeth Joan Kelly aka Orca and David Rodriguez aka Attack! with a highly original piece titled “Grass In The Moonlight” which is a great name so I think I’ll title this episode after it. It’s from a release out on the Mortality Tables label called, yes “Grass In The Moonlight”.
This will be followed by, would you believe it?, another duo in the form of Ali O’May and Frazer Brown as Dohnavùr and a captivating synth adventure titled “Flowers In The Barrel” from their latest release “We Owe Each Other Everything” which you can get on vinyl from that Castles In Space that’s in everyones library.
After that, not a another duo, o no, a Leeds based act of unknown numbers. Active between 1993-1994 called Adel Music Club. You’ll be treated to some sweet drum breaks and bongos or highly tuned congas in the track titled “Break Beats Nothing” from the release called “Golden Acres” out on the channel supporting FRBH Recordings.
Closing Side A is of course another duo. A name all of you know and are probably a bit tired of after this release. It is of course Boards of Canada with the wonderfully wobbly track “Deep Time” from their latest gem “Inferno”. That’s on vinyl in my collection and is available through Warp Records.
But first, to set the vibe: Glass Roots and Panther Loud.
Now settle in. Turn it up just a little. Let’s see where the tape takes us.
One side flip. Just the music.
Side B
Welcome back, sonic travellers. Six tracks down. Six still waiting.
You’ll hear a founder of Triplicate Records, Mr. Michael Southard aka Time Rival and an exclusive, I dare say, from his Bandcamp subscription library titled “Rush Up” from the album “stay safe out there“ which has an official release on the 2nd of October.
Then, speaking of Triplicate Records and their amazing back catalogue I’m playing Belial Pelegrim and an enchanting track titled “Circle of Liquid Ambers”. from the 2020 album “Torus”.
Next. No episode of TVCL would be complete without a dose of modular tweakings. We head to another channel supporting label Paris based Hylé Tapes and the artist Aurel Val with the track “Grid’s End” from the album “Mods-1”. Go grab one of the 7 remaining cassettes on Hylé Tapes.
Near the end we travel to Genoa, Italy with a downtempo summer vibe piece by artist Brioskj titled “Digital Meditation” from the EP The Persuaders! And that’s another Name Your Price release from Finlands finest label: Kahvi Collective.
And finally, a real exclusive track from a true friend of the show. A gentleman fond of words and espicially dialects. Mr. Graham Thorpe who of course is better know as gribbles at least for now. Keep an eye out for upcoming stuff in his own name. Anyway I’m playing a Lemon Jelly flavoured track titled “Owd Roa (Part)” from an upcoming release titled “Agatewards” dropping on boutique label Yellowbelly Records on the 4th of September. Keep an eye out for that.
But first, another exclusive, that makes three for this episode! That deserves a subscription from someone out there does it not?
Anyway, this is an amazing piece of audio art by Imogen Haley Baker who calls herself Enofa, and a rather haunted track titled “The Wormery” from an album called “Small Modernist House in Woodland Setting” which was sent to me by the wonderful Dan Seville, who runs the equally wonderful Subexotic Records. That will be released on double LP black vinyl from the 14th of August. According to the blurb for this release, Imogen made close to a hundred different pieces of music. A lot of htem, she says, will probably stay on her hard drive for decades. Well if you’re listening Imogen, yoou could enter one in for my quiet figures compilation.
Anyway
Enjoy…

A reflective, slightly dark ambient journey through memory, menace, quantum subtlety, and quiet acceptance.
Side A moves from flaming intensity and small-room nostalgia into protective shielding, occult precision, and wave-function deviations. Side B drifts through mossy mind-fog, returning places, hauntological guidance, Moog meadows, and ends on accepted suffering and powerlessness.
Overall mood: Contemplative, melancholic, and atmospheric — blending intimate warmth with subtle darkness and philosophical calm. Ideal for deep listening, late-night reflection, or quiet immersion.

Finishing off the first half, Fraser Rowan aka Ty Lumnus and his mind altering modular track “Deviations in the Wave Function” from his latest release titled “Resonances in the Hidden Field” which you can get a cassette version of through the Astral Discs label.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 258
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 258. 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 quirky, colourful, and atmospheric ambient journey through vintage whimsy, seasonal introspection, and urban environments.
Side A moves from posh timepieces and color seas into winter frost, fluid transference, cloud gazing, and returning light. Side B shifts through modular habitats, Trieste streets, secure institutions, and cinematic projections.
Overall mood: Playful yet contemplative, warm, and slightly uncanny with a mix of nostalgia and modern reflection. Perfect for adventurous listening or relaxed evenings.
I’ve gone back to doing more podcast like episodes but I’ll do all the talking now in the intro 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 258 episodes plus the 820 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 258 is based on the track “Habitat 67” by my friends “The Twelve Hour Foundation” from the release “Expanded & Repurposed” coming out on their Bandcamp on July 27th.
On this episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by Queens, New York based Chris Moore aka Light Vortex with the sound art track “Awash In A Sea Of Color” from the album “Aurora In Georgian Bay” out on Mortality Tables.
My friend of the channel Matthew Davies aka Vic Mars with the Chilled piece we all need right now “Winter II” from his collection of must have tracks “From Different Landscapes”.
A beat driven piece by Paris, France based Stephane Laporte aka Domotic from his amazing 36 track album which I’ve been playing a lot recently “Fourrure Sounds Vol. 3 to 6” out on Virtual Cassette supporting label Astra Solaria Recordings.
Then Canadian artist Grant Gard, who records as landtitles with the clarinet infused track “staring at the clouds” from the album “geographic beings, phosphorus mountains” out on whitelabrecs.
After that Tucson, Arizona based Kirk Markarian aka Neuro… No Neuro with the ambient swelling track “You Wasted Your Time” from the album “MemLoss” out on the Sheffield based Audiobulb label.
Then from the latest Cyclical Dreams label release comes the wonderfully stereo panned piece “The Light That Returns” by Adam Filip from the album “The Returning Circle”.
Ending the A side is Michael Plaster aka yttriphie with the Boards of Canada tinged “A Narrow Field of View” from the album “Solipsis” out on Projekt Records.
Starting off Side B is the inspiration for this episode and one of those bands that are instantly recognisable and just a good mood pill in general. They are of course Polly Hulse and Jez Butler collectively known as The Twelve Hour Foundation. With a track from their latest release “Expanded & Repurposed” with the track “Habitat 67” featuring the brilliant Alan Gubby of Buried Treasure / Revbjelde fame adding vibraphone to this classic.
This flows into Brutalist architecture inspired “Rozzol Melara [Triest]” by Fredy Engel aka MiDi BiTCH from another Cyclical Dreams release titled “Habitat”.
Then the penultimate piece for today comes in the form of another favourite artist from the past few years Cate Francesca Brooks and the hypnotic piece “Secure Environments Ltd” from the album “For Your Security”.
And finishing us off is the 18 minute 25 second piece “Untitled 1 [a,b,c,d,e]” by The Projectionist from the rather special label The Dream Journal Institute whose artists don’t seem to actually exist yet they are not AI. This track would have ended up on an episode of Expansive Waves but I’m not doing them any more as they just aren’t worth it. Too much time equals too few listeners.
But setting the vibe for all of this is Portsmouth based legend Keith Seatman with his track “A Posh Hat and Timepiece” from the album “Counting To Ten Then Back Again” out on Castles In Space.
So settle in, turn it up a bit, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.

This episode titled Evening Embers Rise is based on the track Rise by The Peace Race, from the album Shelter, which comes out on July 1 via the fantastic Mortality Tables label. All the other tracks happened to just fit the vibe.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 173
27 January 2026
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 drifted into. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library, episode one hundred and seventy-three. I’m Trevor, turning the reels in the quiet hours.
We approach this one as always—with the old cassette in mind. Side A first, then the satisfying clunk of the flip midway through. Twenty artists tonight, drawn from the shelves where the quieter signals live. Expect drifts of drone and deep ambient, patches of electroacoustic haze, touches of field-recorded exotica, slow-unfolding modular pulses, and the occasional submerged melody that surfaces like something half-remembered from another room. Places flicker through too: underwater trenches, Los Angeles highways at off-hours, Mediterranean dream coasts, vast starry processions, the interior of mechanical bird boxes, and the soft geometries of winter rooms.
No rush. No hooks to grab you. Only the slow uncoiling of sound.
Side A – 00:00
We begin with Nelson, British Columbia based Codedekay and out of place, from Vol. 9 – The Struggle on (We Are The New Underground) Weatnu Records. A patient unfolding of displaced tones, edges softened by time and repetition.
Then an old pseudonym of the artist Time Rival is Supply Fi who brings Unruly Cascade, taken from Unruly Predation on Triplicate Records who I believe Michael Southard, Time Rivals, Supply Fi’s real name, helped create. Cross-genre currents here—ambient electronics that fold and fracture without ever quite settling. Grab this, it’s a name your price release.
I know we’re all over the Christmas vibe already. But at least here in Sweden the snow lies thick. So here’s Omni Gardens with Winter Wonderland, from the Christmas release on Moon Glyph. Familiar seasonal shapes viewed through gauze, Moog warmth and mellotron drift turning the usual into something hushed and interior.
Now one of the channels favourites with some 90s vibe Lounge. I get a hint of Lemon Jelly wafting through this one. THE GAYE DEVICE offers Argent Echo from Routes. Silvered reflections in electronic form, routes that loop back on themselves with deliberate calm.
This next one is the opening track on my second compilation release. This is Ursula’s Cartridges who submerges us in Mighty Underwater Adventure (UC’s Challenger Deep Remix), from Resonances from the Depths. Dubbed echoes refracted through deep pressure, bubbles rising slow.
Things fall apart now with Dissolved who arrives with Alveolate Minds, Exposure Fields on Mahorka. Grainy, fragmented atmospheres—drone and broken beats meeting in alveolar spaces, porous and breathing.
Belgian artist MICADO gives us An Afternoon Reflection from Mindscapes on Argentinian label Cyclical Dreams. Gentle modular lines catching light, a pause where the day leans back.
Now to help us into the zone is Dormance who closes the first side with Dormance 14, from II on Mahorka. Pure dormancy—Squeaky toys, dub tones, and a spoon in a tumble dryer do half the work.
Flip the tape. Listen for the mechanism.
Opening the B side is channel champion brain, melting, Stephen James Buckley aka, Polypores opens the reverse with The Body Is The Spaceship, Hungry Vortex. The longest track of the episode clocking in at 11:30. Organic electronics as vessel, pulsing inward and outward in equal measure. Get everything Stephen releases and thank me later.
Now a haunting melody of the free by Kilmarth feat. Silly Shadow with A Paradox So Cruel from Cherophobia on Adventurous Music. Paradox held lightly—shadows and light in tender opposition.
Next the shortest track of the episode at 1:36 Elijah Fox drifts through Her Palace from Ambient Works for the Highways of Los Angeles. Highway-side reveries, palace built from exhaust and sunset haze.
Now into the darkness with Autonomаton who present Endless stars procession from Collected Not Lost 2015-2025 Vol. 1 on Mahorka. Dub Drones tracing constellations in slow parade.
Next up Michal Turtle & HOVE with Only Sawdust Remains from Sawdust Dreams. Sawdust as memory material, fragile and aromatic. A pumping beat over tribal vibes.
Friend of the show now and a short one. Not the artist but the track. I have no idea what Dave Clarkson’s height is. Here he conjures Mechanical Bird Box Exotica from The Ghosts of Christmas Past and the Effects on Mental Health on Mortality Tables. Clockwork birds singing through antique mechanisms, exotica tuned to melancholy.
Here’s an adventurous outing by Edward Givens with Rapid Eye Movement (a Dance) from the album, Terra. Dream-state pagan motion, eyes flicking beneath lids.
Here an offering of my own. This is Trevlad with EXPANSIVE WAVES 20 (Airtime Text Reacting) from TVCL-08. Airtime caught in reactive loops—waves folding back on their own transmission.
Now French synth miestro Alex Ringess with the final track And Now Let’s Play This New Game from Asynchronicity. Asynchronous invitation, rules written in delay and overlap.
Next an odd one by Catharæ with In my world from Dreams of the Mediterranéant on Adventurous Music. Mediterranean shores remade as interior landscape, trails tracing the mind.
And now the penultimate piece some deep bass tones from Christian Kleine who brings Slow from the 2025 Label Compilation mixed by Todos on A Strangely Isolated Place. Deliberate tempo, everything given room to breathe.
And now, as the tape nears the end, a few words before the leader. Thanks for staying with it. These programmes aren’t built for playlists or quick consumption, and neither are the ears that find them. Support the artists when you can—buy the music, name their work in quiet corners. It matters more than algorithms admit.
This episode streams free for a week on Mixcloud, links and credits at trevor.se and in the comments. Say something if the mood takes you. Or let the silence hold. Both are welcome.
I leave you with the wonderful Sussex Telecom who signs off with Kendophaz from the 2022 release Creator Warehouse on channel sponsoring Third Kind Records. Phased signals from some coastal telecom exchange, wires humming in the wind.
Until the next wind or the next run-out groove—stay resonant, stay expansive. Let the frequencies find their own way back to you. Cheerio…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 169
17 January 2026
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.

“Hello all. Episode one-five-one of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Lands Lonely Uniform. 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. Ninety minutes, two virtual sides, fifteen tracks each. In this episode you’ll hear awakened souls, The Green Kingdom, Slow Dancing Society, and Ogle. The Cromagnon Band brings echoes of Hadley’s Hope, while Jason Singh and Dreamlake Mists drift into experimental soundscapes. On the B side, Prefaces, David Boulter, and my own track Cult Foam Cardiac appear alongside autumna and Sababa 5 with Canay Doğan.
Labels like Neotantra, whitelabrecs, and Imaginary North are part of the orbit, carrying ambient, drone, and ethereal textures. Sounds move from shoegaze and dreampop to kosmische electronics and improvisational jazz. From London to Melbourne, Toronto to Beirut, these transmissions stretch across places and moods, shaping a library of resonance.
The eighth TVCL album is on Bandcamp for pre‑order—it drops when we hit sixteen tracks. Every comment, every like, every subscription keeps the frequencies flowing. So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 142
12 November 2025
Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at Episode 142 of The Virtual Cassette Library.
Patch Adults Pebble is the episodes subtitle, as well as the track you’re hearing in the background and its geographical location which I’ve filmed and can be experienced on YouTube.
I’m Trevor and I curate these 90-minute genre bending drifts through frequencies from around the globe. No commentary. No interruptions. Just pure sonic immersion. Two, 45 minute mixes, 15 tracks per set with a side change half way.
Imagine the listening experience like being at a music festival where the artists play on a rotating stage. Each act is allotted time for their piece and as it ends the next act takes over rotating into view.
Styles for this episode range from electronic to poetic lounge, from indie rock to dungeon synth. The musical keys in focus are F and D minor.
This episode contains four exclusives, two of which are being released today. The first is from myself and a track from the album TVCL 7 which drops today. I release an album every 16 episodes with the complete versions of the background soundscapes from each episode. The second exclusive also being released today is from the wonderfully talented Andrew Wasylyk. The track, First Moonbeams Of Adulthood should have appeared on Clay Pipe Music before this reaches your ears. The third exclusive is from Veelargo. Liqueed Chainfx is from the album Drealusions and drops on the Bricolage label November 21st. The fourth exclusive is the track Means of Escape, Pt. 1 by Daniel Vincent from his album Means of Escape which drops on his Bandcamp page on Friday 14th of November. Also we’re joined by some friends of the channel like gribbles, The Earl of Dean and survey channel as well as supporting labels like Third Kind Records, Subexotic Records, Castles in Space, Mortality Tables and many more. All the artists and labels are the soul of this show.
If you’d like to be included on future episodes send your art to trevlad@gmail.com. Links to all the tracks are illuminated at trevor.se and marked in each episode’s Mixcloud timeline.
Pre-order the 7th TVCL album on Bandcamp. It drops when we hit 16 tracks. Also you can now grab the first compilation album Murmurs in the Mist with 45 artists. Subscribe and unlock 875 archived shows.
Remember, every comment, every like, every follow, subscription and, album purchase keeps the frequencies flowing.
So now—secure those headphones. Let time dissolve, and let the frequencies claim you.

Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library 103
Green Creek Walkway.
Welcome to Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library episode 103 A 90-minute musical journey where the musical pieces are woven together into two, uninterrupted, 45 minute adventures. The styles for this episode include ambient, electronica, idm, and soundscapes. There is a metaphysical flip at the halfway mark. The shows are designed for a long walk, a mental wander, or a quiet moment alone with the universe.
I won’t be commenting between the tracks. You can join nanogods poetic visualisations on the time line. Don’t be shy.

Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library 099
Stardust Transmission.
Welcome to Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library episode 099 A 90-minute 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. Today’s flight is partially sponsored by these labels: Bricolage, Cyclical Dreams, Mortality Tables, Altus Music, Discus Music, and Clay Pipe Music.
As well as these artists who have sent me material: matsu, The Earl of Dean, Larry Toadman, mRn, aeon, Fflwcs, Sankt Otten & Anita Tatlow.
Much love to my Co-Host the poet, the Psychonaut, Nanogod, Panajotis Chatzistefanou, for his visualisations of what’s going on during the episodes.
Special thanks to Free Album Codes—always fueling the episodes with Bandcamp gems. 🙏
Also shout outs to, Edgars Bruvers, MoiCflo, aeon_music, Joulsryan50, and, Snowpong, for the follows, likes and comments.
The A side opens with a super exclusive by Granada Spain duo Kiko & Miguel better known as, matsu. The track Quietud will be their 4th single from their upcoming release Umbral. The album is not due for release until october 2. This single will be officially released on September 18, but you non subscribers can hear it here until the 23 august. The album, Umbral, inhabits that in-between space, that threshold: where what we feel and what we do don’t fully align, where what once felt steady begins to tremble. The release will be accompanied by an 8-part film, with each chapter conceptually interpreting one of the album’s tracks. Together, all eight chapters form a visual entity that shares the name Umbral. The film is directed by filmmaker and artist Héctor Ayuso.
Also a super exclusive from Sergio Mariani, aka, mRn. With the track, Those Purged, Purified And Refined. Only available here on this episode or a short clip on mRns instagram.
The B side contains a little penny whistle exclusive called Away With Troubles And Anxieties! from Paul Dunmalls upcoming album of the same name. Release date: 15th September on Sheffield based label Discus Music.
I won’t be commenting between the tracks. You can join nanogod on the time line. Don’t be shy.

This episode includes 3 exclusive tracks that you’ll probably only hear here before they are officially released. The A side opens with a descent beneath the surface—into fractured ground and emotional resonance. From Newcastle’s electronic frontier, Bartholomew brings us “Land Fracture”, a track from his forthcoming album Subterranea, releasing July 25th via Castles In Space very own Lunar Module.
Crafted by composer Chris Bartholomew, whose theatrical credits include the Barbican and National Theatre Studio, this piece fuses cinematic storytelling with generative electronics, orchestral textures, and raw sonic abrasion. It’s a meditation on instability—both geological and emotional.
🌀 “Land Fracture” feels like a fault line rendered in sound. Granular textures crackle beneath sweeping harmonic arcs. There’s tension, but also grace. Think Hans Zimmer’s emotional weight, Tim Hecker’s digital erosion, and Ben Frost’s stark minimalism—all refracted through Bartholomew’s unique lens.
The album Subterranea was born after a shared bill with Gordon Chapman-Fox of Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan. That performance led to this release on Lunar Module, and it’s already drawing praise from sonic visionaries like Leafcutter John, who described the album as:
“Cryogenically frozen Beach Boys slowly melting from the Earth’s final great glacier.”
🎧 “Land Fracture” is just one of eight tracks that explore resilience, collapse, and the beauty found in broken structures. The full album drops July 25th on CD and digital. If you’re near Newcastle, don’t miss the launch party at The Globe on July 24th.
🌌 Let the ground shift. Let the frequencies fracture. This is Bartholomew.
Also on the A side a moment of return, of memory, of warmth wrapped in stillness. This exclusive preview comes from the upcoming album Aunque llegue la mañana by Spanish duo Raúl Cantizano and David Cordero, featuring the haunting voice of Lela Soto.
The track is titled “Algo a lo que regresar”—something to return to—and it lives up to its name. It’s a quiet invocation of place and feeling, where Cantizano’s flamenco guitar gently converses with Cordero’s ambient textures. The result is a soundscape that feels both rooted and weightless, like a memory suspended in golden light.
🌀 Lela Soto’s voice drifts in like a breeze through an open window—fragile, soulful, and timeless. Her presence adds a spectral warmth to the minimalist arrangement, grounding the electronics in something deeply human.
This is not fusion—it’s communion. Flamenco and ambient don’t clash here; they breathe together. The track is part of a larger work that explores absence, light, and the quiet persistence of hope.
🎧 The full album releases July 18, 2025, via Noray Records, with a limited cassette edition and digital formats available. Until then, this exclusive track offers a glimpse into a world where tradition and experimentation meet in hushed reverence.
🌙 Let this be your anchor. Let it remind you of something worth returning to.
⚡️ The final exclusive of the episode follows directly after this.—a track that doesn’t whisper, it confronts. This is “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” by East London’s Bit Cloudy, from the upcoming full-length protest album U.S. Nadir, releasing August 8th, 2025.
Known for his work across labels like Castles In Space, Lost Map, and Front and Follow, Bit Cloudy delivers a sonic gut-punch here—an instrumental that seethes with urgency and layered defiance. It’s IDM with teeth. Ambient with a purpose.
🌀 “Trans Kid Karmic Vengeance” is a title that says everything before the first note hits. It’s a rallying cry, a reckoning, and a reclamation. The track itself is a dense weave of distorted textures, and melodic fragments that shimmer like broken glass in sunlight. It’s fierce, but never chaotic—every element is placed with intention.
It’s resistance in waveform. A response to cruelty, to erasure, to the systems that fail the most vulnerable. And it’s delivered with a clarity that cuts through the noise.
🎧 Pre-order the full album U.S. Nadir via Bit Cloudy’s Bandcamp Page.
