a 6.5 x 8" linen wrap hardcover book + high-resolution album download of Kenneth Kirschner's Three Cellos included inside the book.

WHAT IS FOLIO?
FOLIO is a new greyfade music release format that sets out to answer the question: why release music in physical form today?
Equal parts album release, critical text, making-of narrative, study score, and collectible art object, the FOLIO format brings together what we believe to be the best of the physical and digital worlds.
Developed in collaboration with Penguin Random House art director and book designer Jason Booher, the intricately designed and carefully manufactured linen wrap hardcover editions will feature essays, extended artist statements, reflections on process and technology, data visualizations, music theory, photography, and musical scores – offering an unprecedented level of detail and insight into the music’s conception and creation. The included high-resolution music download is sourced directly from the studio masters, providing listeners with a digital listening experience of the highest quality and ownership of the music for years to come.
The FOLIO format represents a renewal of greyfade’s commitment to the continued relevance of both thoughtfully designed physical objects and high-resolution digital music, bringing greater context and depth to the label’s most ambitious musical projects.
