...according to our Brian on 08 January 2010.

I've just ripped open a copy of a CD by [Post-Foetus]. It's called 'The Fabric' and contains some really emotive, chilled electronica, kaleidoscopic glitch pop & occasional neo-classical stirrings. A chap called Will Wiesenfeld is responsible, a young prodigy indeed. Blurred, yearning vocals weave themselves around the twinkles & pulses, warm sheets of sound enveloping you. There's definitely a post Gas/The Field influence to this album but it also doffs its cap towards early, bouncy laptronica like 'Pause' by Fourtet & off-kilter dream pop such as Of Montreal or even the hazy sonic adventurism of Bracken, without compromising the artists individuality or distinctive quirks. There's a lot of fun to be had with this album, in parts soulful, euphoric & wistful with a sweet DIY aura, it comes with love from Mu-Nest in a crisp digipak. Aroma: glade plug-in (any scent).

What their label says...

Joy, true joy, is a difficult emotion to genuinely express in music.
It reaches beyond those familiar poppish chords and notes and
melodies, beyond a mere line of words in a set of lyrics, beyond a
mere suggestion.
Yet joy is precisely what 20-year-old Will Wiesenfeld, a.k.a [Postfoetus]
emanates from his album, The Fabric, a beautifully crafted,
multi-instrument emotional music playground of pure joy and
absolute beauty.
A sonic adventure so pure, so genuine, so intimate yet so
magnificent in all its delicate layers of inviting voices, warm sounds,
playful beats and dreamy, blissful melodies, that it flows like
breaths of splendid zephyrs, wondrous waves and waves of true joy
from the speakers straight to that timeless place of smiles we all
keep in our heart of hearts.
[Post-foetus] presents a perfectly balanced blend of classical
instruments and dream-pop electronica, a vibrant sonic tapestry
of heart-throbbing viola, piano, upright bass and guitar melodies
trailing, cruising and ingeniously intertwined, layered with moving
electronic percussions, ambient sounds and sampled voices, as well
as a dreamy, expressive and honest vocal performance that wears
its heart naturally on its sleeve.
This album is mu-nest’s first American artiste release. Though still
deeply rooted in mu-nest’s core niche of sweet, melodious electroacoustic
music, it marks an expansion to mu-nest’s usual repertoire
with joyous, solid sounds that holds a presence in the air while
maintaining a strong emotional sensitivity.
Smiles. Smiles is what The Fabric would simply render.
For joy comes from asserting the longings of the heart, the
unspoken hopes, the dreams, the fantasies, the intimate moments
we hold dear, and thus is The Fabric.
