About

There are multiple artists named Insomnia: 1) Insomnia is an influential Norwegian improvisation group originally formed by Arild Kristoffersen in 1981. They have moved from variations of psychedelic rock to free jazz and noise and still perform regularly. Today, still very close to its original line-up, the group consists of Knut Erik Sandli, Øyvind Hellner, Espen Ursin Oddvar Karlsmyr, Terje Lerstad (who has written music for the BBC orchestra among others), Sergi Massó, and Øystein Sandsdalen out of Le Corbeau and Serena Maneesh. 2) Insomnia is a minimal dark ambient project, who has released 3 CD-Rs on Nothingness Records. This project has been discontinued, but its 3 albums, (forming a trilogy) are now available for streaming and download on Archive.org. 3) Insomnia is an experimental / electronic project: "1 of 27 Reasons to..." are 27 songs based on the Fruity Loops shareware. That was the first concept but then, Insomnia / Leon has changed his mind and some samples from computer games, classic music and movie soundtracks were added to the compositions. Finally, guitars and vocals were added (both recorded live). All the "reasons", despite various tempos, are trying to catch this "stuffy" and a little bit psychedelic touch. 4) Insomnia was a four-piece psychedelic / screamo band from Rīga, Latvia formed in year 2005. Band have gone through many changes between members; played many shows around Latvia - including almost all open-air events, such as Fono Fest, Zvērā and other; recorded studio recording sessions - the last of them at Hodila Records in Valmiera, Latvia in year 2008; performed with such foreign bands as Abduktio, Disney and many other.
