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.

故・立花隆さんの大学講義からの一節を思い出すことがある。「精神的健康を養うために、若いうちは、できるだけ沢山の思想的浮気をすべきなんです。(中略)浮気が足りない人は、簡単に狂うんです。単に溺れて、自分が溺れているということにすら気がつかないことになるんです。人間の頭は狂いやすいようにできてるんです。」思想だけでなく、教育、文化、政治、職業などあらゆる枠組みに当てはまる気がする。人は信じやすく、狂いやすい。

21世紀末には世界人口の8割以上を「グローバルサウス」が占めると言われる。この地域のアジアやアフリカ、中南米などのIT事情を現地取材で届ける「Rest of World」は貴重なメディアだったが、立ち上げ数年で単体での配信停止となった。Google元CEOの娘が100億円近い私財を投じたプロジェクトだったと知り、その「Rest of World(その他の世界)」という名に込められた目線に複雑な思いがしつつ、あっけない幕引きに驚いている。

本棚を整理していて栗本慎一郎氏を思い出し、懐かしの『パンツをはいたサル』を読み返す。同書で紹介される「過剰と蕩尽」理論の本家、ジョルジュ・バタイユの『呪われた部分』は久しく開いていないが、昨今のAIの暴走や相次ぐサイバー攻撃のニュースに触れ、まさにこの現象だと感じた。過剰な2010年代を経て、様々な局面で蕩尽が始まっているように見える今、内なる声に耳を傾け、ひたむきに生きたい。
