Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 278

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-278/

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. Episode 278. Twelve-track virtual cassettes that flips themselves 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.

I’m trying something new by not introducing the artists, but instead incorporating their work into an incantation of sorts.
The shows remain free for the first week, then slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have 1,107 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 free-flowing, reflective ambient journey through sensory electronics, memory, and quiet personal growth.
Side A moves from biological-electrical parallels and anisotropic expansion into lo-fi peace, earth-toned experiments, momentary swells, and one-note joy. Side B drifts through early-synth sci-fi, molecular machinery, endless Ukrainian fields, youthful better ways, fluttering reassurance, and pleasant loss at C.
Overall mood: Contemplative, warm, and gently expansive — balancing scientific curiosity with emotional depth and soft analogue comfort. Perfect for deep listening, late-night reflection, or peaceful immersion.


Side A

Veins of living light pulse through a lattice of roots and circuit traces. The British Stereo Collective – Bloodrush. Biological pathways merge with electrical grids in a continuous glowing network. Neurological rivers flow into digital rivers. Sequencer patterns rise in free-form currents of sensory electronics, carrying the entire landscape forward in one unbroken surge of warm voltage.

Space stretches in every direction at unequal speeds. Ty Lumnus – Anisiotropic Expansion. Horizons lengthen into luminous corridors of shifting density. Particles drift along invisible axes, forming soft geometric clouds that keep expanding outward in quiet anisotropic bloom.

A solitary figure walks away from a city of fading neon into open starfields. LoveKrafty – Peace Out. Lo-fi cassette warmth coats every surface in soft analog grain. The path opens into a junkie space opera of surreal colour, where the traveller follows a new trajectory through swirling planetary dust and glowing debris fields.

Earth pigments swirl across an endless canvas of evolving texture. Analogue Path – Tempera Terra. Early exploratory tones layer themselves into rich mineral hues. The road ahead unfolds as a long sequence of warm analogue colours, each one revealing another stretch of open sonic ground.

A tide of soft harmony drifts across misted water. M. Cross Dougherty – Momentary. Melodic currents swell into pale horizons that dissolve at the edges. Every rise of the water carries deeper layers of luminous mist, the whole surface breathing in slow continuous motion.

A single pure note of C3 expands into thirty-one radiant nodes. aztechsounds – Nodes Of Infinite Joy. Each node blooms as its own complete world of infinite joy, all orbiting the shared frequency. The nodes rearrange themselves in endless new constellations, flowing seamlessly from one luminous form into the next.

The cassette reaches its midpoint and turns.


Side B

Vast synth environments open into deep-thought corridors of soft phosphorescence. Richard Francés – 2013. Early electronic clouds drift through sci-fi meditation chambers. Extraterrestrial light filters across Terry Riley-like cycles, creating a continuous pathway of inner and outer consciousness glowing in the same slow colour.

A complex molecular machine glides along a long strand of luminous code. Akinetic – Cryocoma. Protein structures read the intricate sequence with steady luminous precision. The entire cellular landscape unfolds as a quiet reading of infinite genetic light.

Endless fields stretch under a remembered Black Sea sky of liquid gold. Bohdan Stupak – endless fields. A low massive drone carries the horizon while high-pitched textures float above it in shifting emotional colours. Memory opens the fields into wider and wider expanses of warm drone light, ending in a soft closure of computer-generated bells and glowing crackles.

Small silent steps form a continuous path of fluid sound. hershel – Better way. Processed guitars and piano tones reshape themselves into new luminous forms. The landscape moves in gentle everlasting motion, each step revealing another layer of intimate hopeful atmosphere that keeps evolving forward.

A warm ambient blanket of soft fluttering echoes wraps the entire space. Ian Hawgood – Flutter Echo Refrain. Fourteen gentle layers of reassurance drift through the air in slow cascading waves. The echoes form a continuous field of transcendental calm that settles over everything in quiet luminous comfort.

The shared note of C expands into a pleasant drifting openness. BAK – Pleasantly lost at C. The frequency opens into wide soft territories where the listener floats among glowing harmonic islands, carried deeper into the pure tone with every slow turn of the current.

The visions complete their circle.
The oxide continues its quiet journey until the end of the spool.

Also in the works: the next compilation, Quiet Figures, release date 26 September.
Uncover the narratives whispered by the silent, ever-present figures that shadow us, through compositions that unravel their hidden mysteries.
Does that stir anything?

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 274

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-274/

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…

www.mixcloud.com/dashboard/my-shows/published/

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 273. 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 soft, slightly quirky ambient journey through floating persistence, growth, residual hope, and quiet promises.
Side A drifts from stuffed repetition and first cultivations into remixes of light, machine minimalism, low flames, and mysterious beings. Side B moves through glitchy indexes, bubbling collaboration, woodland ghosts, emptiness, suspended paths, and ends on a gentle promise.
Overall mood: Contemplative, warm, and gently playful — full of soft textures and quiet emotional space. Perfect for deep listening, late mornings, 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 1,098 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 young Italian composer and producer Luciano Masala, better known as hershel, with the floating piece “Stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy” from his debut album silent steps for a better way, available on CD from Whitelabrecs.
Then Estonia-based Paul Beaudoin invites us into adaptive drift with “1st Cultivation” from his brand-new release spores.dat, out on Sheffield’s Audiobulb.
Next, Wahn appears via a remix: Dissolved’s reworking of “Not All Is Lost”, taken from the album Re: Echo Mist Light, in which 18 artists remix Wahn’s classic Echo Mist Light. The release celebrates Bulgarian label Mahorka’s 500th release.
We’re back with Whitelabrecs for French composer Anthony Elfort (as Toàn) and the track “DEL 1”, created entirely on a single machine — the Deluge — from the album Solitarium.
Staying with Harry Towell’s wonderfully prolific Whitelabrecs, we hear a guitar-based gem from Michael Cottone’s long-running project The Green Kingdom: “By Low Flame”, taken from the soothing album Vespera.
Closing Side A is an exclusive from my upcoming compilation Quiet Figures: Brighton-based BUNKR with the vibrating “The Beings of Borde Hill”. The album currently features 11 artists including Anhnch, Cries from the LTN, Keith Seatman, BUNKR, The Gaye Device, HDRF, Simon Heartfield, The Earl of Dean, Graham Thorpe, Visionary Lines and Substak. There’s still time to submit — the window closes 24 September.
But first, to set the vibe: hershel with “Stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy stuffy”.
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 UK-based Bibio together with Vienna’s Dorian Concept on their bubbling collaboration single “Shame”, out on Warp Records.
Then we revisit older Triplicate Records material with Nottingham’s George Evans (Suncastle) and the good-mood creation “Ghost in Trees” from the 2020 album Platformer.
Next we head to one of my favourite labels — the one-of-a-kind Cyclical Dreams from Buenos Aires — for a minimal track titled “Into Emptiness” by Trittau, Germany’s Christian Fiesel, taken from his recent release On A Second Thought.
Near the end we travel to Alfortville, France, for Japanese artist Hiroaki Yamamoto and the opening track “Paths” from his album Suspended in the Wind, the latest release on Driftworks.
And finally, from the excellent cassette compilation Connection: sculpting silence on French label Hylé Tapes, I leave you with Ekin Fil and Dominic Coppola’s wonderfully soothing “Promise To Never Be Like Them”.
But first, we return to 2020 and Santa Fe, New Mexico’s Richard Alfaro with the glitchy “Index”, taken from the Trip FM compilation Red Shift. Being six years old, it’s Name Your Price on Bandcamp — thank you to Triplicate Records for helping keep this channel sustainable.
Enjoy…

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 272

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-272/

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 272. 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 varied, slightly quirky ambient and electronic journey mixing French precision, personal storytelling, and hauntological grit.
Side A moves from kinetic speed machines and diary entries into monolithic atmospheres, cherry-sweet narratives, and limbic depths. Side B shifts through soapworks hauntology, glass colours, ticking pianos, translucent synths, and ends on questions of reception and what comes next.
Overall mood: Contemplative yet playful, with a mix of intimacy, nostalgia, and quiet curiosity. Perfect for focused listening, late-afternoon drives, or evening 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 1,098 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 Paris-based artist Stéphane Laporte, better known as DOMOTIC, and a track from an album I’ve been spinning a lot since its release. The album is Fourrure Sounds Vol. 3 to 6, and the track is “Bolide” (which translates as “Speed Machine”). It’s one of my favourite releases this year, and the 36-track cassette version is available through Astra Solaria Recordings.
Staying in France, we have artist and label curator Richard Francés with “12 Décembre 2024” from the album Afterwork III (Février 2024), out on his own Hylé Tapes — where you can still grab one of the five remaining cassettes.
Next, another Hylé Tapes artist, this time Tokyo-based Raphael Leray, with “Akurah” from the 2015 release MONOLITH.
Then something a little different: Salt Lake City singer-songwriter and indietronica artist Josaleigh Pollett, with her captivating storytelling on “Cherry” from the latest album If I Let It Quiet.
We’re back on Hylé Tapes for the title track from the 2024 album Biodiverse by the trio Biodiverse, Anee Molly & Canblaster.
Closing Side A is my Glaswegian mate Fragile X with “Limbic” from the 2021 album Hive (previously featured on the Trip FM compilation Blue Shift).
But first, to set the vibe, DOMOTIC with “Bolide”.
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 another track by Glass Roots from the 2020 album The Idiot — an older Triplicate Records release I’ve been revisiting lately (and all their older material is name-your-price, which is where my broke self tends to hang out). This is “Reds Blue”.
Then back to France for Mea Poulpa and the wonderful piano-based (dare I say almost trip-hop) piece “Clock” from the album Beyond Glass, out on Camembert Électrique.
Next we head to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and BVSMV (co-founder of Triplicate Records) with the 2017 synthwave track “Translucent” from the album Skies, available via Cardiff’s TimeSlave Recordings among other places.
Near the end we’re treated to an exclusive from the forthcoming compilation The Synthesis Co-Op Volume One — an amazing collective of artists, many of whom have appeared on this channel over the years (The Earl of Dean, Pulsliebhaber, HDRF, Swimming Lesson, Visionary Lines and more). The compilation drops 4 September. Go follow tscoop.bandcamp.com to stay in the know. Here is “Are You Receiving Us?” by the always delightful Drew Huddart, aka Scholars of the Peak.
And finally we travel to Buenos Aires for Aughflair and the 2017 piece “What Comes Next” from the album Rewritten, also available via the presently defunct Triplicate side-label Mangled Music Co.
But first, our friend Paul Broome, better known as Warmfield, with a track from the Woodford Halse compilation Undulating Waters 10. Warmfield has contributed to my first two compilations and also appears on the new Synthesis Co-Op Volume One (which isn’t out yet but is already stunning). This is “Waterton vs Walton Soapworks”.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 268

www.mixcloud.com/djsofabed/tvcl-268/

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to the Virtual Cassette Library. Episode 268. 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 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.
I’ll introduce Side A now and Side B in the intermission. The shows are free for the first week and then go to my very few Mixcloud subscribers who get to enjoy the 1 093 other shows whenever they like.
As a subscriber you also get access to my new series Veil Frequencies based on a fictional world I’ve created called The Resonant Veil Enclave. Each episode is around three hours and recorded from one of the floors of the 24 buildings in the veil. You can read about it on my Substack page. Mixcloud subscribers also get the ever expanding version of the upcoming compilation titled Quiet Figures.

On this TVCL episode you’ll be aurally pleasured by James Bernard with the title track from his album “In A Small Room, Decades Ago” a love letter to the magical 90s. Grab a CD copy from the Past Inside the Present label.
This is followed by the shortest piece of the episode by Glass Roots and the 44 second gem “Merchant of Menace” from the 2020 nyp album “The Idiot” out on Triplicate Records.
Then a super exclusive from fellow Irishman Peter Fitzpatrick aka Circuit3 and the beautiful retro synth piece “Shielding From The Past” from the album “Metanoia: Music From Therapy” which can be pre ordered from the artists Bandcamp page and will also be released on the Mortality Tables label on the 14th of August.
The penultimate track of the first side of the virtual cassette is by the amazing James McKeown aka Hawksmoor with another track from his latest medieval inspired outing “Yclept Thorn” this time with the chilled piece “Ockham”. Out on the Library Of The Occult label.
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.
But first, to set the vibe is Ramsgates finest, Nick Bonell aka Lone Bison with not only the opening tune from episode but the opener from his latest album “Longshore Drifting” out on channel champion label Castles in Space. This is “Down in Flames”.
Now 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.

Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 213

A deep, introspective, and emotionally rich ambient journey focused on surrender, melancholy, and cosmic introspection.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 213 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Cold Spring Day” by Cells Interlinked from the album “Cold Spring Notes” which dropped on the 22nd of May via the legendary Cyclical Dreams label. Also a massive thank you to Altus Music, 4000 Records, whitelabrecs, Woodford Halse, DRONARIVM, Fonodroom, Cyclical Dreams, Substak, and David Cordero of Noray Records for sponsoring the episode with material.
A deep, introspective, and emotionally rich ambient journey focused on surrender, melancholy, and cosmic introspection.
Side A drifts from blissful release and hypnotic pulses into raw emotional fragility, quiet nocturnal stillness, and nostalgic longing. Side B expands into airy renewal, majestic astral voyages, fading luminescence, and grounding harmonic weight.
Overall mood: Contemplative, melancholic, and spacious with a strong sense of emotional depth and solitude. It feels like drifting through late-night thoughts, faded memories, and vast inner/outer space — perfect for deep listening, meditation, or quiet reflective moments. Intimate yet expansive, with a beautifully somber and serene atmosphere.
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.

Minimal and focused, it unfolds with quiet intensity and subtle structural beauty.

Good day listeners, wherever you are. Trevor here.
Welcome to episode 209 of the Virtual Cassette Library. This is a 60 minute virtual tape with a metaphysical flip at the half way mark.
This episode is based on the track “Lectures on Radio Telegraphy” by Andrew Heath from the upcoming album “Airships & Aeronauts” which drops on the 5th of June via the Driftworks label. Also a massive thank you to See Blue Audio, FOLK POLICE RECORDINGS, whitelabrecs, Mystery Circles, Imaginary North and Mahorka for sponsoring the episode with material.
This is a gentle, introspective journey through soft melancholy and quiet wonder. It feels like a slow, overcast spring day — hazy light, light rain on umbrellas, fading golden-hour glow, and the comforting solitude of hidden places. There’s a pervasive sense of transition and impermanence (spring haze, last light, aftermath, phantom presence), balanced by moments of serene beauty and meditative calm. The atmosphere is warm yet wistful, organic and slightly ghostly, inviting deep reflection without ever becoming dark or heavy.
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.
