Melbourne meets Sydney in a debut remix that turns personal confusion into a fully realised electronic pop statement, and lands like it has been waiting four years to drop. We ❤️🔥 this.
Nicosongs – Insane (sb90 Remix)
Nicosongs and producer sb90 have made something brilliant here: a debut that hits hard and keeps you thinking long after the drop.
“Insane (sb90 Remix)” is built on all the right kinds of tension. The production swings wonderfully between high-impact climaxes and quieter, reflective passages that kinda catch you off guard, and that contrast is where the track earns its keep. Lyricist Nicosongs wrote the core of this in Sydney in 2022 alongside Taka Perry, but sb90’s remix opens the whole thing up into something with genuine dramatic architecture. The bold sound design keeps on track: the hooks land, the energy peaks precisely where they should, and the lyric “everywhere I look my world is black and white” lands harder for the space sb90 leaves around it.
Nicosongs is a Melbourne-based artist whose influences sit squarely in the theatrical end of pop: Lady Gaga’s commitment to emotional scale is an obvious touchstone, and you can hear it in his instinct to reach for the cinematic rather than the comfortable. He has already played The Workers Club and The Evelyn Hotel in Melbourne and opened for Sam Perry, winner of The Voice Australia 2018. “Insane (sb90 Remix)” is his debut official release, and it arrives fully formed: a record that treats disconnection and confusion as starting points rather than endpoints, and that knows exactly how to make those feelings move. This is a banger, honestly.
