I could go on about how it perfectly marries just the right type of piano part (euphoric but not too cheesy) with stripped down, deep, bass-y, almost pre-jungley vibes. I could try to explain how the massive repetition of a few key elements (an amen, a melody reminiscent of mr monday &#8220;future&#8221;, a couple of vocal samples and some deep bass) somehow drive these sounds deep into your brain making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.  But if I said all that stuff, I&#8217;d probably be hyping it too much, and with a simple tune like this I&#8217;m sure most people would scan the audio and not even see what the big deal. So, pretend I didn&#8217;t say any of that. Download it, give it a few listens, give it a few more listens &#8211; see if it worms its way into your brain the way it did for me.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/Insomnia-Down-To-Earth-Nostalgic\/master\/61640\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/insomnia2.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/Insomnia - Nostalgic.mp3\">Insomnia &#8211; Nostalgic<\/a><br \/><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-2872-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"\/blog\/audio\/Insomnia%20-%20Nostalgic.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"\/blog\/audio\/Insomnia%20-%20Nostalgic.mp3\">\/blog\/audio\/Insomnia%20-%20Nostalgic.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s see, how to accurately convey how amazing this tune is&#8230; I could say it&#8217;s &#8220;one of my favorite oldskool tunes ever&#8221; , but I probably say that about half the tunes I post.
