Playing a pivotal role in the development of electronic music, Insomniac began as an underground movement within the electronic space nearly 30 years ago, curating global tastemaking festivals such as Electric Daisy Carnival, HARD Summer Music Festival, Secret Project, and Nocturnal Wonderland.

Launched as Insomniac Records and later expanding into the Insomniac Music Group, the platform is also a full-service provider across music distribution, publishing, label management resources, marketing and sponsorships, solidifying them as a leading, premiere dance music platform.

Sarah Landy, FUGA's SVP Americas said, “Insomniac is a leading platform for electronic music, standing at the forefront of the genre, and we’re excited to be partnering with such a progressive music company. We look forward to working with the label group across our full suite of distribution, marketing and label services, and further expanding Insomniac's audiences globally.
