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.

「それは自律神経の乱れです!」最近は「自律神経」という言葉が科学的知見から離れ、一種の「マジックワード」と化しているところがある。海外でこの言葉(automatic nerve)を使うのは医療従事者くらい。身体や心の不調を「身体システム(神経)のせい」と捉える日本人と、「メンタル(脳・心)のせい」と考える西洋人。と単純化するのは良くないけれど、これに関しては日本の風潮の方が話がこじれにくくて合理的だと思う。

OpenAIのビジョンについてChatGPTに質問したところ、「サム・アルトマンはAIを“製品”ではなく、“電力”や“OS”にしたいと考えている」とのことだった。確かに現在の米国AI投資バブルを見ると、ジョブズとゲイツの時代どころか、カーネギーやロックフェラーの「金ぴか時代(Gilded Age)」を彷彿とさせる。一方、Deepseek創業者・梁文鋒氏のインタビューを聞くと、至って地に足が着いている。両者の違いがどんな結果を生むのか、楽しみ。

高校の先輩(年が離れていて当時は面識はなかったが)で、国内や外資系企業の経営を手掛けてきた方の話。彼がインタビューで「人生を変えた英語の先生」と語っていた人物は、まさに僕が英語を教わった先生だった。僕自身も、その型破りな教育スタイルに大きな影響を受けたので、強く共感した。大学では熱心に講義に通った記憶がなく偉そうなことは言えないが、その後の人生で、あの先生を超えるほど刺激的な教え方に出会ったことはない。
