Dream State Treasure is the debut solo release from Australian born, Los Angeles-based artist Scott von Ryper – best known for being co-founder of the Australian duo The Black Ryder and touring guitarist for The Jesus and Mary Chain.
Primarily recorded and mixed in his home studio between 2018 - 2020, von Ryper utilized the break from touring, and almost complete isolation in 2020 to explore sonic themes that he had experimented with early in his career when still recording on a 4-track, but just now producing them on a much grander scale, playing most of the instruments, recording, producing and mixing the majority of the record himself, with additional recording and mixing from LA based engineer Norm Block, who also played drums on the record.
