Dark Model - Storm Goddess on Ellenwood-EP

Thankfully, we have got more reviews on Dark Model’s new album “Saga” from news and music websites. Today we would like to introduce the latest three articles from Music-News.com, M.I.R.P, and Ellenwood EP.

“Saga is a brilliant, visual-inspiring composition by an electronic master. It takes you on a thrilling adventure with danger, mystery, and majesty all while using modern techno to amp up the adrenaline. If you’re looking for more out of electronic music than five-second loops and bass drops, dig into Dark Model. There’s a whole other universe to explore.”

(Jon C. Ireson, Music-News.com)

Music-News.com is a UK-based leading music publisher who is also called as “the BBC of the music industry.” We appreciate Mr.Ireson’s thought-provoking analysis on the musical jargon “epic, ” which is worth reading, and his detailed review on “Saga.”

Music News.com - Dark Model - Saga review

“Oe absolutely got it right with ‘Saga.’ The beauty of this release is undeniable, the musicianship is stellar, and the conceptualization and composition is exquisite. Throughout, there is foreplay, buildup, climax, and then calm. ‘Saga’ is a universal work of art that will no doubt be universally enjoyed; it has no country, no ethnicity, no age, no era, no genre.”

(Susie9mm, M.I.R.P 411)

M.I.R.P 411 (Music-Interviews-Reviews-Photos) is a music news & review website in the US. We appreciate that Susie9mm, who is the author of the article, chose “Saga” and wrote the very creative, track-by-track review.

MIRP - Dark Model - Saga review

“Saga is a great album for classical listeners who would love a more modern bent as well as indie and electronic fans who enjoy the drama and intensity of classical suites.”

(Layla Marino, Ellenwood EP)

Ellenwood is a popular Los Angeles-based online music magazine. We would like to give big thanks to the author Layla Marino for reviewing the track “Storm Goddess” in detail.

“The song (“Storm Goddess”) opens with powerful snares and violins, produced in such a way that the listener will have a hard time figuring out what parts of the piece were done by performers and what parts are digital. This is especially true with the drums, which though they are one in a techno breakbeat style, truly sound like they could be being played by a highly skilled drummer.”

We have just published “Storm Goddess” on Dark Model Facebook page. Hope you enjoy the music.

以前、英・中・西の3言語で世界の3分の1(約28億人)という話を書いたけれど、日本語の話者は世界で約1.5%程度。ネットであれ現実であれ、日本語だけが交わされる空間は、小さな部屋に人が密集している状態だということ。その密度の良し悪しは人それぞれだけど、世界の98.5%の人はその中でのせめぎ合いを全く知らずに過ごしている。そう考えると、日々の些末なことがあまり気にならなくなるのでは?パゴーヂ(サンバ)の名曲で良い週末を。

以前住んでいたアパートはスタッフがほぼラテン系で、一番仲良かったのはモーガン・フリーマン似のドミニカ共和国出身のベテラン男性。「君をわが家のパーティーに誘おうと思ってたのに、最近会えなくて残念」とある日言われた。当時、彼らの間で大流行していたのがバチャータ。あの超情熱的できわどい踊りの輪に僕を誘うつもりだったのか…そんなわけない(笑)

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。
