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.

何事も経験を積むことは大事だけど、経験を積んだことで「何をすべきか」じゃなくて「何をすべきでないか」が先に浮かぶようになって、結局進めなくなったり、リスクを冒せなくなったら意味がない。知識や経験を得るほど臆病になり、快適領域でものを考え、バカなことをしなくなる。それを防ぐ一つの方法として「好奇心を持ち続ける」ということがあると思う。「これは自分の領域じゃない」と関心を限定しすぎない。ただし、噂話とかゴシップとかじゃなくて(笑)。

当然ながら、自分の作った曲の中でも、動画のアイデアが浮かびやすいものとそうでないものがある。音でストーリーや感情を伝える行為と、動画でそれらを表現する行為は、必ずしも相性が良いとは限らない。特に時間の制約がある場合はなおさら、ふさわしい音楽にも制約が出てくる。目下、「ショート動画を作りやすい曲」を選んでいるのだが、他の名義に比べてOEの曲は選びやすい曲が多いかも知れない。

「時間の使い方」についてのノウハウはあちこちで耳にする。だが、その大半は時間を「いかに効率良く使うか(How)」という話に終始している。果たしてジェームス・ダイソンは時間を効率的に使って、試作機を5,000も作っただろうか?ピカソが5万点もの作品を遺したのは、タイパを意識したからだろうか?一流のアスリートや演奏家はどうだろう?彼らは時間の効率を追ったのではなく、自分が何をすべきか(What)を絞り込み、それに「惜しみなく時間を使った」。
