Combining a drifting melody with dynamic vocal shots and his ability to forge records that captivate its listeners time and time again, Mike Hawkins makes his welcome return to Armada Music after 'Follow' and 'Louder'. 'I Just Wanna Know' is another one of those highly distinctive smashes the Danish studio magician churned out lately, not to be confined by the limitations of any genre. Judging by the sheer impact of these tunes, that's the key to making something sound truly timeless. And Mike Hawkins has perfected that craft.

Summary
The very talented Mike Hawkins continues to unleash great tracks that have a unique sound and want to tell their own story. I Just Wanna Know is a melodic spacey progressive house production with distinctive distorted synthy riffs and cool vocal sample that will attract the attention of the listener. With bubbly grooves, energetic basslines and feel good sunkissed melodies this track sounds ready for Ibiza Action. It definitely needs additional clubbier remixes. Love It
