Music can help calm the mind by creating a state of relaxation. Sleep expert James Wilson added: “When creating the right conditions for sleep, it’s important to feel emotionally and physically secure, as a feeling of safety will allow the nervous system to relax. I can’t wait to get the track out there and help a nation of bad sleepers finally get the rest they’re craving.” With that legacy in mind, the opportunity to collaborate with OTO on the creation of a Sleep Remix was one I couldn’t turn down.
Once released, the track became an anthem for a generation of late night clubbers who, as the lyric goes, were also getting ‘no sleep’. Being in there all day and then DJ-ing at night was like having permanent jet lag, so I came up with the title ‘Insomnia’, because I literally couldn’t sleep. ASMR via an updated reprise of the iconic lyric ‘I can’t get no sleep’ĭiscussing the project, Sister Bliss said: “It’s hard to believe we produced Insomnia 27 years ago in a garden shed.An orchestra of 15 musicians (encompassing strings, woodwinds and percussion) re-create the original Insomnia riff, mimicking a rhythmic pulse similar to isochronic tones, which are often embedded into music to help sync brain waves to their frequency.A reduced tempo of 100 beats per minute, which aligns with the normal resting heart rate for sleep in adults, and is therefore optimal for inducing sleep.Incorporating elements of sleep science and key insights from James, Insomnia: Blissful Sleep Remix, features: A quarter (24%) have tried CBD sleep aids like OTO to improve their drop off, citing positive effects of feeling calmer, improved quality of sleep and an ability to fall asleep faster.Almost two fifths (39%) of those struggling with their sleep experience low mood and emotional irritability (36%).Almost half (43%) of Brits find it hard to switch off, 34% are stressed, 26% are anxious for the day ahead, and 20%believe it’s down to too much screen time.82% of UK adults suffer from Insomnia and over half (55%) consider themselves ‘bad sleepers’.Taking a deep dive into the state of the nation’s sleepless nights, OTO’s research uncovered: Fusing science with sound, OTO and Faithless also enlisted the support of sleep expert James Wilson (AKA ‘The Sleep Geek’) to help develop the track. Contrary to its name, however, the new track is designed to lull listeners into a deep, restorative sleep, and has been informed by sleep science and new research into the state of the nation’s sleep habits.Ĭreated specifically to help us all fall asleep more soundly, the duration of Insomnia: Blissful Sleep Remix is 27 minutes - the average amount of time it takes Brits to ‘drop off’. The release marks the first time the band has re-written Insomnia since its original release in 1995.
