Featured Recording Artist
Between the Dead and the Dreaming
BtDatD is the brainchild of Jason Herring (The Mystery Plan, Interstellars) who during the production of this album fell victim to a vicious heart attack that left him lifeless, but he was somehow resuscitated and has since made a full recovery. The incident made this project title strangely prophetic and very important to Jason as a symbol of his perseverance. The album explores ambient and ambient-pop, with techno and house overtones. Produced by Jason Herring and Rob Tavaglione
