Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 197
Waiting For You
Downtempo IDM
Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the new Virtual Cassette Library – music from all over the world, sparked by a single track that sets the tone for the set. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark. If and when I get a couple more subscribers then I’ll go back to doing 90 minute versions, complete with commentary.
This episode titled Waiting For You is based on the track “I’m Waiting For You” by friend of the channel Damiano Verno, better known as Arcane Trickster . Available through the Greek label Cosmicleaf Records.
If you make music 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.
And if you’re enjoying the channel, please consider subscribing — even if it’s just for a month, it makes a real difference.
So settle in, turn it up a bit if you can, and let’s see where it takes us. I hope you enjoy it.
No breaks, just the music.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 196
25 April 2026
Skivcentrum in Uppsala where I bought Bitches Brew.
Virtual mixtape radio for the sonically adventurous. 20 artists. Drops about three times a week. No schedule, just a passion for independent music.
Hey. Welcome. This is Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library. Episode one-nine-six.
We’re still pretending it’s a radio show for the sonically adventurous. But really it’s just me and the frequencies in an empty apartment while the world outside forgets we exist.
Stream it free for seven days on Mixcloud.
The background track is available on Trevlad’s TVCL 11 on Bandcamp. The episodes are sonic journeys with metaphysical flips at the halfway mark—perfect for long walks, mental wanders, or quiet moments alone with the universe.
No schedule. Just the mood and the margins.
This episode is broadcasting from a record store in Uppsala where I bought Bitches Brew.
Headphones on. Let time dissolve. And let the frequencies claim you.
A Side
Survey Channel – Jaa’abaní (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
A bat-radar pulse that maps the night sky in flickering code – Peel would’ve played this twice.
Justice – Repercussus (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
Echoes rebound like guilt in an empty church; dark, devotional techno.
Hamandra – Nocturnal Conundrum (Secuencias Temporales, various compilations circa 2020–2026)
A puzzle wrapped in velvet dusk – hypnotic and slightly dangerous.
Tomoroh Hidari – Black Star Elevator (Mahorka, Music For Elevators Vol.4, December 2012)
Rides the shaft between floors of reality; creaking, beautiful, eternal.
Recidivist – Characteristic Techniques (Mahorka, Eastern Depths IV, September 2020)
Bulgarian underground grit that smells of solder and rain on concrete.
The Black Dog – Static Between Us (Dust Science / The Black Dog Bandcamp, Loud Ambient 2, April 2026)
Sheffield static that feels like two old friends not quite touching.
Darkhalf – The Cave (Dustopian Frequencies – recent compilation appearance)
Dripping limestone beats from somewhere far below the daylight world.
The Heartwood Institute – The Beach At Drigg – Rescued (Folk Police Recordings, Plague Dogs, April 2026)
Haunting coastal elegy rescued from the tides of memory.
The Science – Farewells and hellos (Mahorka, Eastern Depths IV, September 2020)
A two-minute postcard from the edge of goodbye and beginning.
*Photophobik – Coldchain (Woodford Halse – yet to be released)
Frozen signal from a label that never misses; ice-cold future ambient.
B Side
Hexham Wolf – The Night Singer (Dustopian Frequencies, Celebrating The Bat Chapter 2: Into The Night, April 2026)
A lone howl that turns the dark into velvet theatre.
Dogs Versus Shadows & Nicholas Langley – Substation Doll Gets Its Own Back (Strategic Tape Reserve, 16mm, April 2026)
Cassette ghosts reclaiming the power grid – playful, eerie, perfect.
Phil Geraldi – Taos Hum (ChakraWhip / Not Not Fun, Rural Deceased Undiscovered, May 2026)
That low eternal buzz you can’t unhear once the desert gets inside you.
*Farmacia – Cinco Cuartos (Woodford Halse – yet to be released)
Warm, flickering quarters of analogue light from the Doncaster vaults.
RIKAAR – Raining Space Mellow X (Rikaar Bandcamp – recent)
Space rain that tastes like melancholy and neon.
MiDi BiTCH – Genex Turm [Belgrad] (Cyclical Dreams – recent)
Belgrade tower transmission beamed straight into the nervous system.
Tim Stebbing – Homeward (Cyclical Dreams – recent)
Gentle propulsion toward whatever home means tonight.
E.U.E.R.P.I. – Left-Right (Mahorka – recent)
Stereo panning that feels like walking through two parallel memories.
Salamanda – allez, pousse! (Salamanda Bandcamp – recent)
French-tinged push into brighter, stranger territory.
OID – i-ph jz master (LO Recordings – recent)
Glitchy phone-jazz from the wires between worlds.
[Outro]
You’ve been listening to… well, everything.
Thanks for floating here with me.
I hope the journey sends you in the direction of these artists. All the links and purchase paths are illuminated at trevor.se, on Trevor Lewis on Substack, and marked in the timeline like little glowing breadcrumbs.
If you’re still listening… you’re in the club.
No meetings. No rules. Just dust, frequencies and me.
Send files, codes, whatever, to trevlad@gmail.com.
See you in the next crack in the wall.
Cheerio…
