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.

昔、バンドがライブで自曲を演奏する際、加齢と共にテンポが落ちていくのを見て、どこか寂しさを感じたものだ。ダンスミュージックはBPMで細かくジャンルが分かれるため、「遅い曲を作り出したら加齢の証だ」(笑)と一概には言えない。だが「速い曲を聴くのがしんどい」と感じたら、それは何かのサインかもしれない。幸い僕は今のところそういう現象とは無縁で、ここ最近BPM128以上の曲を集中的に作っている。

かつて英文を書く際は、Grammarlyという文法チェッカーを愛用していた。だが数年前、AI機能が大幅に導入されて以降、自分の文章が「誰が書いても同じになる無個性なテンプレ」へ誘導されている気がして、利用を控えるようになった。LinkedIn等でも、”innovative”とか”visionary”、”passionate leader”といった、似た形容詞が並ぶ定型文をよく目にする。AIが作った「完璧すぎるCV」をAIがジャッジするなんて、妙な時代になったものだ。

凹凸の少ないフローリングの部屋は、音を吸収するものがなく、壁や床で音が何度も反射してしまう。特にエネルギーの強いベース音は、部屋の角や壁際に溜まりやすい。見た目こそ洒落ているが、響きが「ライブすぎる」ため、リスニングならまだしも制作には全く不向きだ。今回突発的に思いついて、スピーカーのリアポート(背面の穴)に靴下を突っ込んでみた。この「ソックスチューニング」のおかげで、4畳半の和室のような、デッドで制作向きの音に仕上がった。
