Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 337

Temptation.

Hello there, listeners. It’s me. Trevor.

You’ve pressed play on another Virtual Cassette Library. Twelve tracks. Two sides. A little plastic ghost that flips itself at the halfway mark, like a polite pancake.

If you make music, or you run a label, or you simply own a shed full of strange noises and would like them filed somewhere warm, send your links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. I read every one. Promise.

The shows stay free for the first week. After that they slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers. Subscribers also receive the expanding series of three-hour adventures titled Veil Frequencies, which is less a mixtape and more a long walk through a curtain that may be sentient.

Now. Each of these episodes is a two-part outing, just like the classic cassette. Unlike mixtapes or playlists, these two sides are curated as proper DJ sets, six tracks segued into one continuous mix, stitched together so carefully you can barely see the thread.

I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.

An adventure for the one who must be obeyed, then a sky watched in company.
Side A keeps Haggard’s flame warm in the sequence, reaches the pole with the radio still crackling from the ice, folds the shroud so the outline remains kind, pours a small aperitif before the meal, finds the empire still in the foundations under the roads, and leaves temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes on the table for you to look. Side B keeps the past still sitting in the chair, grazes elk on a coastal flat with the window open, shares a long look from the mezze table, projects a holographic father already solid and familiar, lets the hearts decide on forever with the pulse steady, and watches the weight of the night sky together while the desert holds both of you.
Overall mood: Mythic, and quietly shared — full of open windows, warm maps, and skies that prefer company. Perfect for dusk listening, coastal flats, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A
Mood mist: an adventure for the one who must be obeyed, an admiral at the pole, a shroud folded in an elegy, an aperitif for the young, an empire still in the foundations, a temptation numbered among sixty-four fluxes.

00:00:00 Tim Stebbing – She Who Must Be Obeyed
https://tim-stebbing.bandcamp.com/track/she-who-must-be-obeyed

00:25:15 Future Children – The Roman Empire Never Went Away
https://iheartnoise.bandcamp.com/track/future-children-the-roman-empire-never-went-away

The roads still under the roads. The aqueduct still in the plumbing.
00:26:00 Mantris – Temptation
https://mantris.bandcamp.com/track/44-temptation
Album: 64 Flux. Label: Hi Scores
Title of the hour. The one that prefers to stay on the table. You may look.

Side B
Mood mist: a past still in the room, elk on a coastal flat, an eye from the mezze table, a holographic father, hearts that prefer the long duration, a sky watched in company.

00:29:10 ian hawgood – no less present for being in the past
https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/track/no-less-present-for-being-in-the-past

00:36:12 Neglect – Elk Flats
https://neglectsound.bandcamp.com/track/elk-flats-2

The coastal meadow, the animals already grazing. The window already open.
00:46:02 Eje Eje – Yemen Eye

The small plates, the long look. The table already shared.

The projection already solid. The name already familiar.
00:51:34 Sandman Project – Hearts Forever
https://sandmanproject.bandcamp.com/track/hearts-forever
Album: Hearts Forever. Label: Batov Records
The duration already decided. The pulse still steady.
00:56:37 Black Sun High Desert – We Watched The Sky Together
https://blacksunhighdesert.bandcamp.com/track/we-watched-the-sky-together
Album: The Weight Of The Night Sky.
The weight of the night sky, shared. The desert holding both of you.

This has been The Virtual Cassette Library, episode 337.

I’ll meet you on the other side of the next spool.


Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 160

28 December 2025

///applied.crawled.wires

Virtual 90 minute mixtapes for the sonically adventurous. 30 artists, two 45 minute sets. A spoken intro followed by music only show. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.

Hello, I’m Trevor, and this is episode one‑sixty of the Virtual Cassette Library. Today’s theme is Applied Crawled Wires—which, as usual, is both the track you’re hearing underneath and a location you can find on a map, if you’re the sort who enjoys chasing coordinates on What3Words.
We’ve got ninety minutes ahead—two sides, fifteen tracks each. Some names you’ll know, some you won’t, and that’s half the fun. A couple of treats in this one too: the Andy Maurer and Clariloops pieces are exclusives from the upcoming Whitelabrecs release Sleep Laboratory 6.0, and The Home Current track is taken from the forthcoming Subexotic Records album A Point Blank Dream. Always nice to have something you can’t hear anywhere else—yet.
Now then, starting back on episode 156, there’s a little cipher game running through the series. Each episode, during the intermission, you’ll hear a number. Scribble it down. After ten episodes, you’ll have the full sequence. Put the pieces together, crack the cipher, and you’ll unlock a code that knocks ninety‑five percent off anything on my Bandcamp page. Which means you can scoop up the whole discography for about two quid. It’s not meant to be difficult—just enough to keep you awake at night wondering if you’ll get it right.
The rest of the show drifts through ambient corners, modular murmurs, soft‑focus electronics, and the occasional unexpected detour. The sort of thing you might stumble across late at night on a shortwave dial, wondering if you imagined it.
So—headphones on, let time dissolve, and let the music claim you.”

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 143

14 November 2025

///plank.glides.enigma.

Welcome, sonic wanderers. You’ve arrived at Episode 143 of The Virtual Cassette Library.
Plank Glides Enigma 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 beats to nature, from funk to new classical. The musical keys in focus are G sharp / A flat and F minor.
In this episode we’re joined by some new friends of the channel like Sævar Jóhannsson and Red Stars Over Tokyo. As well as some familiar names like THE GAYE DEVICE, Mike Dickinson and Listening Center as well as supporting labels like Cyclical Dreams, Buried Treasure, Moolakii Club Audio Interface, Ingrown Records, Mahorka, Castles in Space 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 8th 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 to the Mixcloud channel and unlock 877 archived shows.
Remember, every comment, every like, every follow, subscription and, album purchase keeps the frequencies flowing.
