"Amidst a spacious fabric" is the third full length album by Wilt, the dark ambient american project that surprised the whole genre with his debut "The Black Box Aesthetics" in 2000. James Keeler, the man behind Wilt, creates encompassing atmospheres made of deep drones, slow soundscapes and a lot of variations, using original sound sources that bring something interesting to a style where blend electronics are too often prominant.

The 11 untitled tracks on "Amidst a spacious fabric" were created with only sounds recorded with a zither, then manipulated and treated to built slow and hyponitzing tracks. The listener is taken to a dim lighted room, where tones are echoed and basses rumble. But this is not all, since a lot of accoustic noises from the zither are also used in this album, adding a lot of surprises and depth to the dark textures.

Experimental but very well arranged and mesmerizing, "Amidst a spacious fabric" could be compared to the works by Lustmord, Archon Satani or Megaptera, but possesses a unique, deep touch that people who know "The black box aesthetics" will easily recognize.

Wilt will also release this year on Ad Noiseam a collaborative disc with the Swedish act Tarmvred, and will have several tracks on compilations.

Upcoming projects by Wilt also include a series of tape collaborations with Gruntsplatter. In 2001 will also be released a split with Bargain Basement (limited to 100 copies on CDR) and a cooperation with Stolen Light.
