Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 222
Beginning Future Empathy
Based on the track “Somewhere Right Now In The Future” from the album “Inferno” by “Boards of Canada”.
Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. A 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
A gentle, introspective, and emotionally nuanced ambient journey with touches of melancholy and warmth.
Side A moves from delicate, fragile beauty and shimmering guitar textures into dreamy Balearic atmospheres, dark cyclical tension, and quiet personal reflection. Side B shifts between urban solitude, sparse haunting moments, and organic warmth before landing on pastoral serenity and nostalgic analogue haze.
Overall mood: Melancholic yet comforting, dreamy, and subtly nostalgic. It feels intimate and emotionally honest — like late-afternoon light turning into twilight. Perfect for reflective listening, quiet evenings, or focused deep immersion.
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.
One side flip, just the music.

Welcome to Trevor’s Virtual Cassette Library episode 106 Jotting Hero Mystery. Which is not only the soundtrack in the background but a geographical location according to What3words with its own video. Pre order the album on Bandcamp to support the channel, it gets released when it reaches the Mixcloud subscriber count which is currently 16. Of course if you do subscribe there’ll not only be an extra track but you’ll also get all my albums for the monthly subscription price of 3 dollars. These episodes are 90-minute musical journeys. This episode is a spectral drift through modular hauntology, Sardinian piano reveries, and aquatic synth rituals. woven together into two, uninterrupted, 45 minute virtual cassette sides, with a metaphysical flip halfway through. A lovingly warped mixtape for dusk listeners, headphone wanderers, and those who find comfort in the crackle of forgotten formats. The shows are designed for a 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 visualizations on the time line. Don’t be shy.

For the Birds 010
A brand new look and new intro for the show. Same concept. One hour of music containing, or relating to, our feathered companions. The idea being that if the channel gets enough subscribers to cover the costs of production then I’ll start buying birdseed to reimburse our avian friends for the royalties they probably never received.
