Knock2 Channels Vintage Progressive House In Stunning Single, "hold my hand"
Knock2 is young, hungry and one of today’s biggest breakouts in the electronic music scene. At only 24, he’s thrown down on the stages of Coachella and Lollapalooza, among many other major festivals
Despite his fresh sound and larger-than-life presence, the EDM.com Class of 2023 star isn’t afraid to pull inspiration from classic artists. His new single, “hold my hand,” channels classic progressive house to deliver one of his best releases yet.
After first teasing the euphoric track as the closer of his riveting HARD Summer set, Knock2 dedicated “hold my hand” to one of his longtime inspirations, Zedd. The track blends Sophia Gripari’s captivating vocals with propulsive drums and a vintage electro melody, delivering a vibrant mix shimmering with both nostalgia and novelty.
“I started this song July 2023 with my friends Nick Smith and Sophia Gripari, we were writing multiple songs this day but this one really resonated with all of us,” Knock2 said in a press release. “Felt like it all clicked when we discovered the chord progression, I immediately knew what direction to take the record. Something that felt nostalgic and bittersweet. I love playing this song at the end of my sets, it’s my goodbye to the fans and a sweet way to end the chaos.”
It’s clear that “hold my hand” isn’t just a single—for Knock2, it’s a world-building venture. It arrives alongside a compelling music video, which introduces fans to the universe of his long-awaited debut album, nolimit. Directed by 3D animator Alec West, the video brings Dash, the main character, to life as he embarks on adventures across a sprawling metropolis.
“hold my hand” is out now via 88rising. Watch the music video below and find the new single on streaming platforms here.
