Dark Model 2014

This is the next preview from Dark Model’s first album. It is an uplifting, trance-esque orchestral electronic track featuring minimalistic piano, strings & horn phrases, and marching drums.

With this track, I wanted to put some hopeful and positive energy into the album. It may come off as unexpected from the name of the project; I don’t intend to put any negative message into music under the name of Dark Model. Rather I aim at making music that can inspire and motivate listeners. Themes underlying this project are something like “how to live positively and move forward even when you are in the darkness” or “how to cope with the darkness (of the world, inside you, etc.)”.

For details of Dark Model’s first album, please refer to the album page.

この「Rambler and Canter」は、田舎道を散策し、ときに駆けるような牧歌的な風景をイメージして作った曲。最初『Here and You』(2002)に収録されたこの曲、『New Classics Vol.1』(2018)のリリースにあたり、リズムや音のメリハリを調整した。当初は乗馬の映像を合わせていたが印象が弱く、シンクロ感のあるパンチの効いた素材を探すうちに、なぜか米国小売チェーンのCM風ショート動画に変貌してしまった(笑)。

マレーシアのマハティール氏のドキュメンタリーを見た。あるアメリカ人の銀行家は彼を「トランプ的な独裁者」と評したが、「公の精神」の深さという点において、両者は全く性質が異なる。華人系とマレー系の格差是正に心血を注いだ元医者と、格差と分断を自らの支持基盤を熱狂させるための道具として利用しつつもTACOる元不動産屋。この差には、流石のマキアヴェリもフィレンツェの墓から「そこ、全然違うから!」と、鋭いツッコミを入れるに違いない。

先日紹介した糸川英夫氏の本で、なぜ彼が飛行機の設計に興味を持ったかが説明されていた。1927年にリンドバーグが飛行機での大西洋横断に成功した時、当時中学生だった糸川氏は彼に「太平洋はおまえが飛べ!」と言われた気がしたそうだ。人は自分で設定した目標が高いと挫折しやすいが、他人から頼まれた目標には(裏切れないという心理が働いて)使命感がより強くなるという。この「使命感をでっち上げる」という発想はぜひ参考にしたい。
