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)

「太陽神」と聞くと、僕はアース・ウィンド・アンド・ファイアーのアルバムタイトルを思い浮かべてしまうのだが、太陽の神様は天照大御神からラーまで世界中に存在する。中国でも古くから太陽崇拝の文化があり、山東省の煙台市はその聖地なのだそうだ。これは最近知った話なのだが、きっかけは建築雑誌でこの「Sun Tower」を目にし、強く惹きつけられたこと。現在は韓国経由でしか行けないようだが、いつかこの場所から太陽を眺めてみたい。

ヨーロッパやアメリカの名監督たちに「映画は死んだと思うか?」とインタビューしていく、身も蓋もない映画に遭遇した。僕自身、20世紀の欧米文化やアートへの思い入れはある。けれど、良いんだか悪いんだかよく分からないものを、映画祭や内輪の評論家、メディアが持ち上げて守ってくれる「エコシステム」は、もう終焉を迎えたのだろう。「映画は終わった…」なんて嘆くヒマがあったら、彼らも『RRR』のキレッキレのダンスを見て、前に進むしかないよね(笑)。

TVerで見た番組で、旅人の岩崎圭一さんのことをたまたま知った。ストリートマジックで稼いだチップを糧に自転車で世界一周を続けているという。その逞しさに画面に釘付けになったが、彼が「Britain’s Got Talent」に出場していたと知ってさらに驚いた。エベレスト登頂、大西洋を手漕ぎボートで横断、そしてあのサイモン・カウエルを芸で唸らせる…。「人力(人間力)の可能性」を教えてくれる、国宝級の存在だと思う。無事に帰国されることを祈っております。
