about the album:
Florida-based musician & sound artist Josh Mason is known for a deeply personal approach to modular synthesis, guitar, and electronics, developed over more than a decade of recorded work and extended into the design of his own instruments. With 'Kicking A Dark Horse', that approach reaches its most personal—and most elaborate—form to date.
Mason presents an ambitious multi-modal work articulated across sound and text: a 9-track electronic album alongside a book-length work of experimental writing.
Across both forms, 'Kicking A Dark Horse' is governed by controlled instability—chaotic structures that cohere without repetition and evolve without resolution. The text unfolds in fragments—part diary, part landscape study, part fever dream—extending the disjunctive, textural logic of the music into literary terrain rarely inhabited by a music edition.

out today: greyfade's eleventh release.
JOSEPH BRANCIFORTE & JOZEF DUMOULIN: 'ITERAE'
for 2 fender rhodes + electronics
ITERAE is offered as both a bespoke multi-disc object + digital edition.
info + order at:
www.greyfade.com
//
Electronic musician, conceptualist, and Greyfade label head @josephbranciforte joins pioneering Fender Rhodes artist @jozefdumoulin on ITERAE, a compelling entry in the post-glitch canon.
The album documents an acutely focused musical dialogue between two artists who have reimagined not only the sonic possibilities of amplified keyboard instruments, but the potential of technology to shape musical improvisation.
Spanning 70 minutes, ITERAE's eight continuous sections hover between form & abstraction, precise sonic architecture & dream-like flow.
//
about the physical edition:
ITERAE is issued as a unique multi-disc edition (5CD) designed for both shelf & wall—scaled to the dimensions of the vinyl LP while subverting its familiar expectations.
The format distributes the album's material across four 80mm CDs, housed within a matte greyboard display panel. Each disc can be played independently or sequenced freely, extending the music's own recursive methodology into its physical presentation. A full-sized CD is included on the rear for continuous playback.
→ precision die-cut housing for the CDs
→ sits comfortably alongside vinyl records
→ printed back & spine
→ integrated rear wall-hanging tab for display as a fixed visual work
→ deluxe poly bag

a second generative piece is now up on greyfade listen, greyfade's new listening platform, now in beta.
'october 9, 2014'
by kenneth kirschner
available today for all beta users.
to join the beta:
→ listen.greyfade.com/join
about the piece:
'october 9, 2014' is an indeterminate composition originally released in 2015 as the music for variant:blue, an interactive audiovisual app created in collaboration with visualist joshue ott @avretect.
reimagined here for greyfade listen, the piece consists of 48 individual audio files that are played in randomly generated permutations, creating unpredictable, ever-changing juxtapositions of the underlying musical material.
about greyfade listen:
greyfade listen is a new custom-built, direct-to-listener streaming platform, presenting greyfade's catalog in lossless sound, without ads or algorithms.
in addition to music, the platform allows artists to curate texts, scores, and other materials alongside each album. it also supports playback of generative and non-linear audio works natively.

Loop 8/9 comes out two weeks from today, but you can already hear excerpts on Bandcamp. Pre-order at
➡️ phillipgolub.bandcamp.com/album/loop-8-9
to hear the full Loop on Nov 13 — it’s the only way to hear all the different corners of sound we found on these loops since this release will not be on streaming! Loop 8, what you’re hearing now, is written in a non octave-repeating subset of equally tempered quarter tones. I’m grateful to be able to explore and make these sounds with an amazing group of collaborators:
scordatura electric guitar @tyciterman
microtonal vibraphone @aaron.edgcomb
synths, production, recording, mixing, mastering, album art, and label @josephbranciforte @greyfade_label @greyfadestudio

greyfade is pleased to announce our thirteenth release, out 13 november 2026 and available for pre-order now.
phillip golub: 'loop 8/9'
digital release (96k/24b)
listen & pre-order:
→greyfade.com/catalog/013
→phillipgolub.bandcamp.com/album/loop-8-9
'loop 8/9' presents two new microtonal compositions by pianist & composer @phillipgolub—the third chapter in his ongoing cycle of loops for greyfade, following the solo debut 'filters' (2022) and the studio-built 'loop 7' (2025).
performed by a quartet of retuned acoustic piano, vibraphone, electric guitar, and synthesizer/electronics, each piece sets out from its own tuning system: one built from quarter tones, the other derived from just intonation.
@phillipgolub, microtonal acoustic piano
@aaron.edgcomb, vibraphone
@tyciterman, electric guitar
@josephbranciforte, synthesizers & electronics
track listing:
01. loop 8
02. loop 9
format: digital (96k/24b)
duration: 42:09
release: 13 november 2026
produced by:
joseph branciforte & phillip golub
engineered by:
joseph branciforte at @greyfadestudio and @jaybirdrecording

a sneak peak of the generative playback capabilities of greyfade listen, greyfade's new listening platform.
'new primes (generative): perrin'
by @gregorytylerdavis
out today for all beta users.
to join the beta:
→ listen.greyfade.com/join
about the piece:
fourteen sine tones, each a prime number from the perrin sequence, every one moving on its own clock through three octaves and silence. it begins at a random point in the cycle's first year.
about greyfade listen:
greyfade listen is a new custom-built, direct-to-listener streaming platform, presenting greyfade's catalog in lossless sound, without ads or algorithms.
in addition to music, the platform allows artists to curate texts, scores, and other materials alongside each album. it also supports playback of generative and non-linear audio works natively.
for those unfamiliar with generative and non-linear works: rather than playing back a single fixed audio file that sounds exactly the same on each listen, these works can unfold differently with each play. a composer might designate a set of sonic behaviors—some fixed, some probabilistic, some completely random—that are allowed to play out for a period of time (or indefinitely).
it's a technique many greyfade artists already use in the development of their music. for a standard album release, however, they're forced to freeze these processes into fixed versions.
greg's piece is a great example of this. in 2022 greyfade released greg's album new primes, which uses sequences of prime numbers to generate gradually unfolding harmonic monoliths. these pieces can run endlessly, revealing complex interactions over long periods. for the 2022 version, each prime number set was edited down to a 5-10 minute track on the album.
greg has now revisited the work to present the concept in completely generative form for beta users

greyfade's hardcover FOLIO series is now carried at @printedmatterinc in new york.
printed matter was founded in 1976 by a group of artists & critics (sol lewitt & lucy lippard among them) at a moment when conceptual, process & sound artists were turning to the book as a medium in its own right… a way for work to circulate outside the gallery system. fifty years on, it's still the leading nonprofit dedicated to artists' books, and the organization behind the ny art book fair.
FOLIO grew from a similar premise, that a musical work, its writing & its recording could be one designed object—not an album with a book beside it.
first on their shelves is @josh__mason's 'kicking a dark horse,' nine tracks for modular synthesizer alongside a book-length work of experimental writing, subtitled "a nonlinear travelogue of the states of florida."
118 pp., cloth-bound, edition of 500, music via qr code inside the cover.
→ in store now at 231 11th ave, chelsea
→ online at printedmatter.org

It's time to make more loops. New album of two more loops coming later this fall on @greyfade_label. Before then, join @tyciterman @aaron.edgcomb @josephbranciforte and me on Sept 25th for the (early) album release show.
Loop 8/9 is the third chapter in my ongoing series of loops, following Filters (released 2022) and Loop 7 (released 2025). Loop 8 and 9 are both in tuning systems that featured on tracks from my most recent album, Partisan Ship.
Info & tickets at tinyurl.com/loop8and9
Thanks to @nevets.gnol for inviting us to play on his series at St. Michael's Church. Check out the other amazing programs he has planned this fall, including a ton of Feldman concerts. (More info via Eventbrite related events.)
