C офф. сайта лейбла Sonic Dragon Records:
Benza has been making phenomenal psytrance since 1997. His background in Jazz and Classical music have enabled his sound to be completely unique, maintaining critical elements of melody and form, while giving up ultra-butt-shaking grooves. His debut self-titled album, released on Demon Tea Recordings in 2003, was met with worldwide critical acclaim, being touted as “proper psychedelia with everything you ever needed to fly.” (DJ Times Magazine) The first album, coupled with his explosive live sets seen through Europe and Japan have truly established Benza on the world’s trance scene.
The second album, Retrofuturism, draws on the strengths of his first album, but sees Benza discovering new horizons. A renewed focus on groove and structure allows his new music the space to explore the depth and width inherent in his production, whilst keeping time for the ebbs and flows that ensure dance-floor appreciation.
The music on this record covers all bounds. In Isis and Osiris and The Twin Complex of Dawn Benza explores the inner musicality of his craft, while Escalation of Tensions, The Pipe Doctor and The Ascension of Smeagol draw on his inherent dance-floor understanding, sending arms and legs flying whenever they are played. This album presents the full cross-section of Benza’s music, from the funkiest and grooviest, to the mental intensity we’ve started to associate with all that is Benza.
