Dean de Benedictis - Salvaging the Future (CD) PREORDER
Built from unreleased material gathered across decades, the project reflects an effort to reclaim time itself
Dean De Benedictis' Salvaging The Future - the fitting epilogue of his monumental Salvaging trilogy - is a drifting, searching, and quietly radiant work, that examines the past and anticipates a possible future. Built from unreleased material gathered across decades, the project reflects an effort to reclaim time itself -- to gather fragments from different eras and reimagine them as one continuous, living gesture.
Where the trilogy began in the reflective terrain of Salvaging The Past and moved through the transitional pulse of Salvaging The Present, Salvaging The Future arrives as the most expansive and elusive chapter. It moves beyond the artist's earlier space-music foundations into something more diverse and less easy to name: active, ambient, spacious, improvisational and charged with a sense of motion. The album's title suggests not only futurism, but a more human hope -- that the future can be safeguarded through memory, care, and attention to what has been.
The music was shaped through a deeply personal and often demanding process, using custom sample libraries, re-synthesis, layered processing, and older computer systems treated as distinct creative instruments. Across deserts, coastlines, mountain ranges, abandoned rooms, airports, and homes, the album took form through years of travel, upheaval, technical struggle, and persistence. Its sound bears the imprint of that life: spacious yet intimate, complex yet sincere, visionary yet grounded in lived experience.
Salvaging The Future stands as both conclusion and continuation: a final chapter that feels less like an ending than a lingering transmission from somewhere just ahead.
