Protocol veteran Timmo Hendriks teams up with Scott Forshaw and JJ Beck for his new single “I Need To Know” featuring singer/songwriter Sam Welch. Hendriks stays true to form with his sonic style on this one, which opens with moody vocals on top of piano melodies to create a soulful and emotive vibe. The track builds into a groovy bassline with undulating waves that give “I Need To Know” that deep progressive credibility. This is Forshaw and Beck’s first time on Protocol; the two previously worked together on “Inside My Heart,” which has over 1.5M streams on Spotify to date. The new release follows Timmo’s recent tracks on Nicky Romero’s imprint, such as “Salvation” with Marcus Santoro ft. Able Faces, “Heroes For One Day, and Timmo’s solo work “Make You Mine.”
