Dean De Benedictis, has envisioned a vital work of instrumental compositions, exploring the art of electronic music with a refreshing integrity. Blending traditional electronic tones and structures with acoustic elements, he has sculpted an album that is raw and direct. In essence, he has captured a heart of true electronic music, while suggesting more thought-provoking themes.

De Benedictis realizes this vision through various electronic tonalities, samples, and acoustic instruments such as mayahachi flute, bamboo flutes, cello, piano, voice, guitars, hand drums, and percussion" applying all, with the passion and inspiration of the masters before him.

Salvaging the Past is not only a homage to the electronic music of the past, but expands the vocabulary of the present.

To the listener: Our physical realm is comprised of drastically separate entities mix-matching and ambiguously aligning into one harmonious collage. Such is the underlying principal behind 'Salvaging The Past. ' It is not the first time I've based a project on this philosophy. So much of my unreleased work had been inspired by this principle, and specifically by a variety of traditional ambient music genres, that eventually I felt compelled to tie this particular work together... how could I not' With some songs containing an intense electronic base and others a pure acoustic base, creating the mood for Salvaging The Past" was tricky, but I do feel that we brought the music together as best as possible. As always, it is all from the same soul." Dean De Benedictis
