A dimly lit workshop cluttered with circuit boards and flickering screens, shadows dancing as digital pulses awaken forgotten machines. Kicking off Side A with my own self released alias. This is Trevlad’s “Tablet Stocks Mice” from the album TVCL 09.
A crumbling tower under stormy skies, echoes of shattered illusions raining down like fragmented glass. Next up, Юродивый (yurodivy) with “Fallen Expectations ll” from the 50 track NYP album Commemorative Compilation released by Secuencias Temporales.
Imagine a bustling market at dusk, spices mingling in the air as rhythmic grooves weave through the crowd like invisible threads. Here’s Kaidi Tatham’s “Any Flavour” from the album Two Syllables Volume Twenty Two, on First Word Records.
An endless void, stars collapsing inward, pulling you into a cosmic silence dotted with faint, haunting signals. Farazdeck brings “Void” from the album Animae Perdita (ST017), courtesy of Secuencias Temporales.
See gentle waves lapping at a forgotten shore, mist rising as melodies drift by like autumn leaves on the wind. Clariloops’ “Pass Me By” from the album The Quiet Below, released by whitelabrecs.
Frost-covered cliffs along a rugged coast, deer silhouettes against a winter sunset, horns echoing through the chill. Phexioenesystems’ “Coastal Winter Deerhorn” from Patterns in Condensate, on Lunar Module.
A quiet farewell at twilight, streetlights blurring in the rain as final words hang in the ether. Gareth Jones’ “parting / nosDa” from ElectroGenetic 2 – Nos Da, a Mortality Tables product.
A woven lattice of vines climbing ancient ruins, sunlight filtering through in golden patterns. storyinsoil’s “Lattice” from the album distillation, released by Ingrown Records.
A city skyline at night, lights twinkling like distant galaxies, synth waves shimmering across the horizon. Ryu Oshi’s “Sparkling Night” from Cityfield: Ten Duets for Electric Piano and Synthesizer, on The Dream Journal Institute.
A shadowy alley where friends rally in chaos, urgency pulsing like a heartbeat in the dark. T-toe’s “Shes our friend and she’s crazy, We have to help her!” from The Vale of Shadows, on Sounds for the Soul Records.
Afternoon light piercing through clouds, flashes illuminating hidden landscapes in surreal bursts. Stereolab’s “Flashes In The Afternoon” from the album Cloud Land / Flashes In The Afternoon, released by Warp Records.
A zero-point field, equations dissolving into nothingness, potentials collapsing in elegant decay. Simon Heartfield’s “Nilpotent” from the Noon State EP, on Limbic Production.
B Side
Imagine awakening from a vivid reverie, the veil lifting as reality reshapes itself in unexpected forms. worriedaboutsatan’s “The Dream Is Over” from No Knock No Doorbell, self-released.
Barren fields under gray skies, the first flakes descending in silent promise. “Waiting for Snow” by Andrew Heath and Mi Cosa de Resistance, from the album Land, on Driftworks.
Cavernous depths where echoes reverberate, low frequencies rumbling like earthbound thunder. gribbles’ “Lows” from BOSH!, self-released.
Ancient temples shrouded in mist, realizations dawning like forbidden revelations – this one’s an exclusive preview, not yet out in the wild. Glacis with Henrik Meierkord’s “I Have Worshipped The Wrong Gods” from the upcoming album We Gape and We Are Healed, on whitelabrecs.
A lush garden bathed in golden light, mythical fruits ripening under eternal watch. Yakuza Jacuzzi’s “Jade Emperor´s Peach Garden part 1” from Wabi-Sabi, released by Cyclical Dreams.
Sun-drenched streets alive with infectious beats, shadows swaying in harmonious flow. Sababa 5’s “Asunsan” from Ça va Ça va, on Batov Records.
Ethereal threads connecting distant realms, pulses syncing in harmonious trance. Avsluta & Primal Code’s “Sahatā” from Commemorative Compilation , released by Secuencias Temporales.
That’s the end of the tape for Episode 183. Thanks for tuning in – keep exploring those independent sounds. Until next time, let the universe echo back.
Overgrown concrete structures reclaimed by nature, botanical forms emerging from urban decay. Wrapping up with Wil Bolton’s “Concrete Botany” from the album Concrete Botany, on Home Normal.

“Evening all. Episode one-four-eight of the Virtual Cassette Library. Subtitled Cook Hobble Recruited. That’s the track you can hear underneath, and, oddly enough, it’s also a location you can find on a map. I filmed it—up on YouTube if you’re curious.”
“I’m Trevor. Bringing you ninety minutes, two virtual sides, forty-five minutes each. Fifteen tracks per set. No chatter, no interruptions. Just the music, rolling on like a festival stage that turns—one act fading, another coming into view.” This episode has an exclusive track Karesansui by Wellington, New Zealand based artist CZiGO. Karesansui means “dry landscape” or “dry mountain water” and refers to a minimalist style of Japanese garden that uses rocks, gravel, and sand to represent natural landscapes like mountains, islands, and rivers without any water. These gardens, often found in Zen Buddhist temples, are designed for contemplation and meditation, symbolizing natural elements through careful arrangement and raked gravel patterns that mimic water. Karesansui is from the upcoming album Techno Feudal which drops December 12 on Machine Records.
” New friends joining us this episode like, Übung, Elastic colors, WarpCensor and Dissociative Identity Quartet. Also familiar names including, Future Children, Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan, Robert Rich, and, Oceanographer. Labels like Cyclical Dreams, Mahorka, I Low You Records, Astra Solaria Recordings, Buried Treasure, Adventurous Music, Imaginary North, Castles in Space and more keeping the whole thing alive. They’re the soul of the show, really.”
