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.

1977年、NASAの宇宙探査機ボイジャー1号と2号は、金色のレコードを携えて果てしない宇宙へと旅立った。「ゴールデンレコード」と名付けられたその盤には、地球の自然音や画像、脳波データ、そして世界各地の音楽が約90分にわたって収められている。 日本の古典尺八の曲と並び、ひときわ異彩を放つのがブルガリアの歌手ヴァリャ・バルカンスカによる民謡だ。この曲自体に、我々を宇宙の深淵に引き込むかのような壮大な引力がある。

ふと中学受験の頃を思い出した。僕は小学校時代、関東、関西から九州まで転々とした。各地方の方言をマスターする(リスニングとスピーキング)のも大変だったが、一番衝撃だったのは、小学校4年の終わりに引っ越した県は公立、私立関係なく中学生は丸刈りが強制だったこと。体罰も普通だった。そのおかげで県外の私立中学校に進学しようと猛勉強したが、自分の中の「越境メンタリティ」はその辺りに形成されたのかも知れない。

Dark Modelのニューアルバム、大枠が完成しました。これから数週間かけてミックスダウンを行います。準備段階からじっくり時間をかけた分、かなり中身の濃い作品になりそうです。毎回アルバム作りの終盤になると、「これ以上のものはしばらく作れないな」と思うのだけど、数か月経つとそんな気持ちもどこへやら、気づけば次の作品に取り掛かっている。このサイクルが30年近く続いているのは、本当にありがたいことです。
