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.

「上達は真似から始まる」というのは、語学やスポーツの習得だけでなく、作曲や芸術のような創造的な活動にもよく当てはまる。でも、なぜ人は「真似したい」と思うのだろう。集団への帰属意識や憧れ、求愛、承認欲求など様々な理由があるはずだ。オウムのスノーボールが踊り始めたのは最初、飼い主の動きを真似たからだろうが、今では14の振付を自分で創り、習得している。オウムに元々踊る特性があるのか、彼が「師匠を真似て、そして超えた」のかは分からない。

先日作ったYouTubeのMERチャンネルに『Shakedown』をアップしました。このブログを読んで下さっている皆さんの中で、ごく初期の『Twist & Shout』位しか知らないという方はいないと思いますが、他の名義も含めModel Electronic Recordsのリリース作品を100曲以上聴いた方はまだ少ないかもしれません。自主管理の音源は豊富にあるので、様々な角度から動画を披露し、この音楽の世界をより多くの方に楽しんでいただけたら嬉しいです。

楽曲の放送や配信へのライセンスに関するガイドラインを更新しました。コロナ禍の影響もあると思うが、日本では音楽の権利処理に関する改正が著しく、海外とは独立した動きをしているので、それぞれを正確にキャッチアップするのは大変。この手の話は海外の場合、現場を切り盛りしている実務家が率先してゲームに参加するのに対し、日本では役人の答弁や弁護士のコメントが目立つ。彼らは必要不可欠な存在だが、使用料をもらう側でも支払う側でもない。
