Monocule is back together with Tim van Werd for their new release \u201cOn My Mind,\u201d a deep progressive gem that perfectly represents Nicky Romero\u2019s alter ego\u2019s already signature sound. Opening with soulful vocals coupled with a subtle bassline and dreamy melodies, \u201cOn My Mind\u201d culminates in undulating low ends and ethereal melodies that make the track both dark and emotive. This is the second time that Monocule and van Werd have joined forces; Tim collaborated with Nicky when he was debuting Monocule back in 2020 on the very first Monocule\u2019s track \u201cTime To Save,<\/a>\u201d which also served as the main single of Monocule\u2019s debut EP. Tim\u2019s recent releases also include \u201cIcarus\u201d EP<\/a> well as \u201cWho Are You\u201d EP<\/a>, in addition to his stunning performances from Dutch windmill Molen de Hoop<\/a> in Gorinchem and Pyramid of Austerliz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After taking the world by storm with early hits such as \u201cLegacy\u201d with Krewella and the #1 single \u201cI Could Be The One\u201d with Avicii, Nicky Romero quickly proved that his talent is ever-evolving and here to stay. After launching his Protocol Recordings imprint in 2012, the renowned performer, producer, and label head continued his personal successes with a string of high-profile releases, ranging from collaborations with Armin van Buuren, David Guetta, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, W&W, Timmy Trumpet and Steve Aoki to remixes for the likes of Robin Schulz, Kygo, Rita Ora, Steve Aoki, Martin Garrix, Jess Glynne and more. While showcasing his label\u2019s roster via his weekly Protocol Radio show, which just surpassed 500 episodes, Nicky Romero continues to innovate and evolve, and with his annual \u201cNicky Romero & Friends\u201d ADE showcase and the launch of Monocule alter-ego<\/a>, he keeps proving his ability to turn into gold everything he touches.<\/p>\n

Tim van Werd\u2019s interest in music began at a young age with the drums, trumpet, and piano through training in classical, pop, and jazz music. As a dance music producer, this expertise shines through in his seamless productions and dynamic style that blends elements of different genres. After receiving early support and track signings from Hardwell, Dannic, Fedde le Grand, and Nicky himself, Tim produced his hit \u201cBalkan Disco,\u201d which has amassed over 4 million plays and put him officially on the map. He followed up with \u201cBreak The Night\u201d and \u201cMessage From The Whales,\u201d all of which got attention from some of the industry\u2019s biggest names. 2020 found van Werd returning to his true love of house music on \u201cOne Inside<\/a>\u201d with Marcus Santoro, \u201cWars\u201d ft. LAKSHMI, as well as a remix of Michael Gray\u2019s legendary song \u201cThe Weekend.\u201d Proving himself a formidable up-and-coming talent, this is only the beginning of Tim van Werd\u2019s rise to the top.<\/p>\n
