Smoke. Hilton. Champagne. Maro Music has a gift for knowing how to produce music that gets people up and dancing. Try as one may, it's futile attempting to remain still. Maro Music's "Insane" (Addicted To Music) is out now.

"Insane" is a tight package, a rare commercial tune with bona fide dancefloor appeal. Able to cross over from radio airplay to peak-time at a music festival, "Insane" distills the essence of youthful insouciance into a wickedly playful aural romp. The track kicks-off with a staccato march that serves as a call-to-arms, followed quickly by a stirring percussive pattern that erupts like gunfire. An unexpectedly groovy, house-y harmonic synthesizer progression moves-in like a suavely dressed fashion model floating through a room full with gaping onlookers. Images of a mischievous-looking female uttering the repeated lyric are unshakeable, curls of hair falling teasingly over sultry, bedroom eyes. One imagines an extreme close-up of a woman's luscious lips intoning, "Boy you make me feel insane / let's smoke / Hilton / and Champagne." Wonky horns and dissonant, acid-tinged effects get expert sonic distortion as the momentum pulses forward. There's a lot happening on this track, yet it feels tight, balanced and never overdone. Nods to bass music and trap anchor "Insane" firmly in the arena of cool. Maro Music's production is exquisite and expertly done. A lion's roar, a growling monster, heavy syncopation and a low-end swagger are enough to fuel this track for long-term commercial and underground viability. "Boy you make me go crazy / let's do some shots / and get hazy!"
