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.

BPM: 130

NHKの語学ラジオには中学生の頃からお世話になっているが、最近はスマホアプリのおかげでより身近になった。僕がよく聴いているのは「まいにち中国語」「ラジオビジネス英語」「英会話タイムトライアル」(これ、面白い)。ポルトガル語やスペイン語も時々聴くが、動詞の活用や名詞の性別があるラテン系言語は、大学時代にフランス語で躓いてからずっと苦手。でも英・中・西が分かれば世界の3分の1の人(約28億人)と繋がれると思うと、夢があるね。

新作のミックスダウンが佳境を迎えている。一つの曲をずっと聴き込んでいると、どうしても耳も頭も近視眼的になっていく。この仕事を長く続けている割に(だからこそ、かな)、僕は「神は細部に宿る」という職人的なエリート意識や美学があまり好きではない。本当の意味で全てのプロセスに責任を持つならば、時間、クオリティ、そしてビジネスを俯瞰するバランス感覚と実行力、そして「モメンタム(勢い)」が不可欠になる。

昔、フランスのレーベルBarclayのアーティストのリミックスを手掛けた縁で、その後数年間新譜が届くようになった。当時彼らが注力していたのがフェミ・クティで、アルバムもリミックスもDJで重宝した。先日、久々に見た彼のライブ動画に1曲目から度肝を抜かれた。あの「Truth Don Die」が、当時のクラブマーケットに向けたプロダクションを遥かに凌駕する、爆発的な生演奏へと進化していたのだ。最高に血が沸き立つ音楽。
