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.

大航海時代が生んだ豊かな音楽文化の話を書いたが、歴史にはこんな不調和もある。18世紀初頭、英国の「南海会社」は南米との貿易独占権を盾に、実態のない株を乱発して「政府の借金を肩代わりする」という怪しい金融ビジネスに興じた。世界初のバブル崩壊劇だ。本日上場を迎えるスペースXを取り巻く熱狂を見ていると、この事件を思い出さざるを得ない。現代の南海=「宇宙劇場」への賭けは、果たして吉と出るか、それとも泡と消えるか。

アルバムのマスタリングが終わり、これまで聴きたかった音楽を漁っている。先日ゴスペルの話を書いたが、視点(聴点?)を非西洋圏へ広げると現在進行形の面白い音楽が多すぎて時間を忘れてしまう。本日は南アフリカ、南インド、ポルトガル、ブラジル、そしてUKやオランダを巡るリズムの旅を満喫。大航海時代以降、香辛料や宗教、科学だけでなく、グルーヴも海を行き来し、相互に進化や変化を遂げたのだった。

生成AIの検索1回には、従来のGoogle検索の約10倍の電力がかかるという。僕はSDGsや循環型社会を唱えまくる人間ではないけれど、僕が暇つぶしにくだらない質問を投げかけ、AIが長文で回答を返すまさにその瞬間、どこかのデータセンターのサーバーがフル稼働し、(スマホを数分充電する程度の)電力を消費してCO2を排出している。半導体景気に狂喜乱舞する昨今、自分も含めたこのアンチ・サスティナブルな暴走の矛盾に、ふと寒気がする。
