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

「言語化ブーム」への違和感は以前も書いたが、それ以上に「聞く力」や「質問する力」が後回しになっていることが問題だ。会話であれメールであれ、相手の意図を汲み取る前に「どう言語化するか」に走るのは、車輪がないのにエンジンだけを吹かしているようなものだ。自己主張の国である米国ですら、最近は「アクティブ・リスニング」が注目されている。経験から言えば、仕事のトラブルの大半は「聞けていない、飲み込めていない」ことが原因だと思う。

先日、豚を愛でるチャーチルの言葉を紹介したが、対照的にバーナード・ショーは「豚とレスリングをするな。泥まみれになるし、豚はそれを喜ぶからだ」と遺した。豚には大層失礼な話だ。要は「君子危うきに近寄らず」なのだが、SNS全盛の昨今、「反応しない=同じ土俵に乗らずにスルーを貫く」のはさぞ難しいのだろう。ただ、自己顕示欲や承認欲求におぼれる人間とは違って、豚は純粋に泥を楽しんでいるだけだ。やっぱりショーの言葉は豚に失礼だと思う。

Merriam-Webster辞典の「Word of the Day」を聴き始めて3、4年。難易度は高く、パッと分かるのは半分くらいで、数日全滅することもある。昨日の「jejune(幼稚な)」も初耳だったが、米国の認知度はわずか5〜10%。「アンチ・ボキャブラリー」が基本のアメリカでこれを使うと「気取っている」と思われる可能性があるが、英国人がこういう高尚な表現を使うのを聞くと「さすが、知的でクール」と崇められる。何やねんそれ(笑)。
