Xeno & Oaklander - "Insomnia" (Official Video)
Музыка
The single "Insomnia" from Xeno & Oaklander's 'Hypnos' on Dais Records.
A collection of sparkling electronics blurring the lines between 60's French Pop, 80's wave and contemporary modular synth pop. Romantic and mythic, a dreamlike journey through dense harmonies and complex polyphonic compositions...

CREDITS:
Direction, cinematography, and editing by Liz Wendelbo.
Between waking and dreaming, Insomnia explores that very moment when the mind slips into the surreal. In this sci-fi inspired video, we see Xeno of Xeno & Oaklander roam around the grounds of an abandoned mansion by the sea. Using a dead tree branch as a shamanistic communication device she is summoned into outer space by alien life-forms in the shape of vintage perfume bottles.

LYRICS:
White nights
Insomnia
Black lights
Insomnia
Hide from the stars that never set
Lay down your head and be at rest
A rhythm is rising
No-one is watching
And still there’s no waking
White nights
Insomnia
Black lights
Insomnia
A day without end
Rays of the stars
Shield me from dark
And careless nights
White nights
Insomnia
Black lights
Insomnia
A vigil below the sidereal sky
Insomnia

I love listening to this song while riding a bike. It gives me a sense of freedom. We need a lot of freedom
Every sleepless night, I m haunted by this song and this ghostly Eau de Cologne de Guerlain's bottle
In the pandemic I found Xeno and Oaklander and I bathed in the bliss of their sound till the world was liveable in again

Wow.. This is real electronic music, not the fake music called electronica just using sound effects. I like so much good music only. After just a few seconds of hearing xeno...i loved them . I am very critical of music. Xeno ..is the real deal !

The mixing on this album gives their sound so much added punch, and Liz' double-tracked vox sound better than ever. And the bassline on this song is as funky as anything they've ever done.
X & O are time travelers...into the future. Gorgeous music & imagery.
Drab Majesty brought me here. So I’ll be checking out there whole discography because I love this.

Super excellent.
Awesome work!
The missing link between Chris and Cosey and Hard Corps. Just when you think McBride and Wendelbo Are about to hit a formalised path a totally unexpected chord progression anonces itself. Mixed feelings that X + O have widened their sonic pallet with digital drums and poly synths-on the album this track is taken from ... but that’s only because I love their SH101 sounds so much. l o v I n g t h I s
