Jack Prest announces Vol. 1 Sound, the first volume in his The Risk of Hyperbole Trilogy

Vol. 1 Sound is an immersive journey through experimental composition, field recording and sound art as an integrated whole. It’s also the first instalment of The Risk of Hyperbole, a trilogy of conceptually interlinked albums from Sydney-based composer, sound designer, producer and artist Jack Prest, a journeyman of Australia's burgeoning music and arts scenes. 

Prest recorded The Risk of Hyperbole trilogy over a free-flowing week at Studios 301 with a cast of all-star collaborators including fellow Sydneysiders Claire Edwardes, Jason Noble and Freya Schack-Arnott of Ensemble Offspring, Benjamin Freeman, David Rodriguez (GODTET/Sampa The Great), Nicholas Meredith (Kcin) and Jerrol Renaud (The Goods). 
After they'd worked through a series of oblique strategies to track a series of pre-prepared and improvisation-led compositions, Prest took the files away to carefully and intuitively re-edit, arrange and sculpt into their captivating final forms.
