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)

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」時期というのは、実は大化けする直前のサインなのかもしれない。

日本人観光客で賑わうホノルルのホテル。週末の夕刻には、サモアやタヒチ、ハワイといったポリネシアの伝統ダンスやファイヤーショーが披露され、その爆音と熱量に圧倒される。ポリネシアのパーカッション音楽には昔から魅せられ、レコードやCDを掘っては「一通り知った気」になっていた。しかし実際は、島やエリアによってリズムパターンや演奏法がかなり異なるという奥深さがあったのだ。このところ惹かれているのはクック諸島のグルーヴと演奏スキル。

1980年代からUCSFのメルツェニッチ教授らが発表した「脳の可塑性」の研究は、脳神経科学の常識を覆す決定打となった。日本での「大人の脳も鍛えれば変わる」という脳トレブームの基礎にもなったが、僕が注目したいのは記憶やスキルの「能力向上」ではない。能動的に注意を向け、新たな意味を与え続けることで「認知の枠組み(ナラティブ)」を物理的に書き換えられる—つまり感情システムすら再構築できるという視点だ。
