Dark Model – Broken Arrows

Dark Model 2014

This is the next preview from Dark Model’s first album which will be released on May 16th, 2014. This track begins with a dark piano intro and builds dramatically with a full orchestral arrangement and massive electronic beats.

By the way, this may be different 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 has 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 into this music was, “Your (fighting) spirit never dies even if your arrows are broken.” That is opposite to most of the contexts where broken arrows are figuratively used.

For details of Dark Model’s first album, please refer to the album page.

This track has been licensed and featured in some media projects such as Mr. X Inc’s 2016 trailer. (article)

年季の入ったブルースマンやR&Bミュージシャンのインタビューを聞いていると、”We was” という表現が出てくることがある。これは標準英語とは異なるが、彼らの間では決して間違いではない。こういうのは Vernacular(自然発生的な日常文法) といって、Slang(俗語・流行語) や、地域的な Dialect(方言) とも少し違う。このバンドの名前 Sho-nuffは、「あたりきよ!(Sure enough)」みたいな、レトロで味のあるスラング。

シンガポールの元外交官で、国連大使として安全保障理事会議長も務めたキショール・マフバニ氏は、アジアの躍進は歴史の自然な流れだと長年語ってきた。この講演では、多くの西洋人の聴衆を前に、「世界人口のわずか12%に過ぎないあなた達が、残りの88%(グローバルサウスやアジア)に説教する時代は終わったんです」と指摘する。G7などを通じてその「西洋」の側に足を置き続けてきた日本にとっても、ズシンと響く話だ。

蒸気機関の大幅な改良で、産業革命の立役者となったジェームズ・ワット。輝かしい功績とは裏腹に、彼の歩んだ道のりは挫折の連続だった。成功が見えないまま10年近く研究と資金繰りに追われたどん底の時期、彼が友人に宛てた手紙に残した言葉は、「人生のあらゆることの中で、発明ほどバカバカしいものはないよ」(出典)。「必死にもがいているのに全然報われない」と感じる時期こそ、実は大逆転が起こる直前のサインだったりする。
