Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 355
Hi folks and welcome to A Perspective With No End. Episode 355 of my Virtual cassette library. It’s Friday and I hope your weekend is looking spectacular. This Mixcloud channel has now passed twelve hundred mixes and as a coincedence, and a thank you, I made the previous bonus mix titled ///fake.prompts.roofer which is the what3words location of my letterbox and where I found a copy of The Twelve Hour Foundations latest 10” vinyl release Expanded & Repurposed. Which was kindly gifted to me by Jez and Polly.
Anyway…
I make these shows as sort of diary of sorts which is not the best of ideas but I like descovering new music every day and happen to like sharing my finds with you.
Side A will include Rikardfvs with Knocking On The Door Of The Worm Breeder from the must have Dustopian Frequencies compilation Skeletons. This is motorik krautrock groove from up the road. After that legendary The Black Dog with You Married Yourself (Live) from the album Live At Dekmantel 2026. pulsing Idm that will have your neck snapping. Then Andrew Lang together with Tim Koch and the wonderfully named track When In Rhodes from the album Comminuere Communitas out on the unstoppable force that is Mahorka. Ten and half minutes of drifting pads and hissy rhodes just what the doctor ordered. After that Justin Hopper with Jesse Chandler in the piece The Mayday Pond from the album The Autochrome and Other Stories. An exclusive ghost story for Christmas out on the stellar Clay Pipe Music label. Ending side a is Hello Mr. Klaus with Opus 39. The buildings shatter, and so does my heart from the album The Ring of Fire -Electronic Symphony No.3 Part. 1. A synthesizer opus to drift aimlessly into space to.
After that side B will flip itself like a polite pancake while you notice a detail in your surroundings.
First off is TOMAGA with A Perspective With No End from the album The Shape Of The Dance out on Hands In The Dark. Four minutes of brooding percussion,understated bass and lapping waves where the perspective is already the dance.
Enjoy…
These are not playlists. Each episode is structured as a pair of continuous sets: six tracks on each side, mixed and stitched so the joins sit almost inside the grain. The sequence is the form.
If you make music, run a label, or hold a private archive of material that has not yet found a place, send links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. Every submission is heard.
The episodes remain free for the first week. After that they move into the Mixcloud subscriber archive. Subscribers also receive Veil Frequencies, the ongoing series of three-hour transmissions—extended traversals rather than selections, moving through a curtain of sound that occasionally seems to register the listener in return.
Mind the flip.
Side A
Mood mist: a perspective with no end, a door that is already the bone, a marriage that is already the self, a Rhodes that is already the next grain, a pond that is already the autochrome, a heart that is already the next movement of the ring.

Welcome to the intermission aka the flip side. You just heard the track “Opus 39. The buildings shatter, and so does my heart” by Hello Mr. Klaus. Remember If you make music, run a label, or hold a private stash of sounds that have not yet found more ears, send links or Bandcamp codes to trevlad@gmail.com. Every submission is considered. Today’s album of the day: is After Dark by Vermont based Fimnur. Recorded between November 2025 and February 2026, the twelve pieces move through titles like “Fractals in Ice,” “The Curse Awakens,” and “Just Before Dawn,” keeping the cold, story-driven atmosphere of earlier work while opening small doors to neo-classical texture. A measured expansion of the Vermont winter project rather than a reinvention.

The penultimate track this week is Hoeken by Aries Mond from the album Lines. Boris Billier’s Hoeken continues the spontaneous, single-take approach of his recent Edge Angles.

Ending episode 355 is the wonderful Cate Brooks with Blush Tide from the compilation Filaments. Out on Jo Johnson curated Silver Threads label. Cate layers soft electronic textures that feel nurturing rather than distant, the kind of ambient that settles without insisting.

That was another outing of the Virtual Cassette Library. If the sequence stayed with you, share it, favourite the show, and follow the channel so the next episode finds you and maybe someone new. Tips keep the reels turning. Better still, subscribe: the archive now holds more than twelve hundred past episodes, waiting whenever the next listening session calls. Travel safely between the frequencies. I won’t say goodbye as that would suggest that we’ll never meet again. Instead, I say, Cheerio.
Trev’s Virtual Cassette Library 328
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. I read them with both eyes and, on special occasions, a third one.
The shows stay free for the first week, wandering about with their shoelaces undone. After that they slip quietly into the hands of my Mixcloud subscribers, who currently have over eleven hundred other episodes waiting for them whenever the mood strikes, which in my experience is usually Tuesdays, or during eclipses, or when the kettle boils. 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. Unless you look.
I hope you enjoy the adventure. Mind the flip.
A university of unstable knowledge descending, then a jump that knows the trick.
Side A descends a staircase held slightly out of true, lets paper flowers drink the dye until the bloom is already in the fibre, measures sixty metres of disco rhythm, improvises a cello in the nude, scores a short career for three spiders and one fly, and layers images until the clock bends. Side B reaches the edge of the wood and waves you in by further paths, holds a fabric up to the window so not all refracted light is as it seems, collects light patterns in tone studies that wander somewhere welcome, lets children and whales share a pool large enough for both, grass-roots a Chilean forest guardian, and lands the leap exactly where the title meant to.
Overall mood: Contemplative, slightly eccentric, and quietly luminous — full of open staircases, bent clocks, and paths that already know the way in. Perfect for dusk listening, listening parties on the first of November, or sitting still while the next spool still waits.

Side A exclusives
Drew Huddart’s Scholars of the Peak – Hermit Station No. 7 (The Lost Bird) – PCT 27 – Transmissions from Mother Hill. An album that charts a sonic topography shaped by memory, myth and movement — a suite of transmissions echoing from the ancient ridgelines and cavernous depths of Mam Tor, the legendary “Mother Hill” of the Peak District. Each piece draws from the landscape’s natural upheavals and human imprints: from ancient burial paths to a wartime wreckage, from collapsed earth to long-forgotten mines.
Due for release on September 1 on the amazing Preston Capes cassette label.
Moray Newlands – Closing (exit) – The Red Red Earth. Moray’s been ruminating on the inevitability of death and how it will come to us all at some point. The red red earth is the culmination of these thoughts and feelings. The meaning of the red red earth, he’s not entirely sure, however it does relate to the soil found along the east coast of Scotland, close to where he lives now and where, you know, one day, perhaps…. The album should ideally be listened to as a single continuous mix which I’ll be featuring on an upcoming episode of Expansive Waves.
The Red Red Earth releases August 15, 2025 on Wormhole World.
Side B exclusive
Trevlad – EXPANSIVE WAVES 09 – TVCL 04. Which, of course, stands for Trevors Virtual Cassette Library. Every 17 episodes I release the music from behind my voice overs.
