2) Insomnia is also 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.

3) Insomnia was a four-piece psychedelic / screamo band from R?ga, Latvia formed in year 2005.
