Track Description

This video is the next preview from Dark Model’s full album. This track begins with a dark piano intro and builds dramatically with full orchestral arrangement and massive electronic beats.

Regarding Dark Model’s first album, please refer to this article.

It may differ from what you would expect from the title, but this track was not inspired by the famous movie “Broken Arrow.” Not limited to the feudal era in Japan or the Middle Ages in Europe, there have been many parables and anecdotes where “arrows” come up as symbols of human bonds and wills such as loyalty, trust, creed, or even fighting spirit. Those symbolic connotations inspired me. Having said that, what I wanted to incorporate in this music was, “Your (fighting) spirit never dies even if your arrows are broken.” That is the opposite of most contexts where people figuratively use broken arrows.

「たかが…されど…」という言い方には違和感がある。「たかが」で物事を深刻にとらえすぎず、執着しないよう自分に言い聞かせておきながら、「されど」で未練や割り切れなさを表す。この曖昧さや心の揺らぎ、余韻は、ある意味とても詩的で情緒的なのかもしれないけれど、結局誰も幸せにしない気がする(笑)。暴論かもしれないけれど、全部「たかが」で生きた方がストレスが少なく、本当に大切な時間と人を大切にして、充実した人生を送れるのではと思うのです。

すべての場所がそうとは限らないが、アメリカでは普通に暮らしていても警戒心が強くなる。とはいえ不安だらけでお先真っ暗というわけではなく、仕事でも遊びでも「動けば動いただけ報われる」充実感を得られることが多い。日本は治安や医療で質の高い平和を実現しているが、「運命は自分の手で変えられる」と思える風土があるとは言いがたい。ストレスの質が異なる複数の世界を知ることは、結果的にストレスの量を相殺し、自分の可能性を広げることにつながる。

久々にレヴィ・ストロースの業績に触れる機会があり、「ブリコラージュ」という概念を思い出した。彼に指摘されるまでもなく、日本人はこの「ありあわせの道具や素材を使ってものを作る」ことがとても得意なので、この言葉に親近感を持つ人も多いはず。30年前に自分が曲作りを始めたのも、まさにこの手法。ただ、「ブリコラージュ」の相対する「エンジニアリング」も非常に大事なアプローチで、この2つの技術をたゆまず磨いてこそ創作が前進するのだと思っている。
