If you’ve been following Alan Dreezer, the Eastbourne-based pop-soul artisan for any amount of time, you know he never shows up empty-handed—or without something deeply heartfelt to say. His new single “APART” is the fifth teaser from his upcoming third album, and it’s safe to say the emotional stakes just went up a notch.

This isn’t just a single—it’s an open letter, a soul-searching confessional wrapped in melody and vulnerability. And for an artist who’s built his solo career on lyrical honesty and lush, clean pop production, “APART” hits particularly close to the chest.

“APART” feels like the quiet sigh of a relationship unraveling in real time. The track is built on a bed of gentle synths, layered harmonies, and that signature Dreezer warmth—melancholy, sure, but never cold. His voice has a way of sounding both resigned and hopeful, like someone clinging to the last fragile thread of connection, even while admitting it's slipping away.

If “BUTTERFLY” was dreamy and poetic, and “TAKE ME BACK” was nostalgic with a touch of urgency, then “APART” is the moment of reckoning—the moment when love is still present but drifting, when silence speaks louder than words.

It’s minimalist but rich. Quietly produced by longtime collaborator Elliot Richardson at Highfield Studio, the song is a masterclass in restraint. The piano flourishes, ambient textures, and clean rhythm section never overwhelm—they make space for the lyrics to land, and land they do.

Alan Dreezer’s strength is his lyrical precision. He doesn't need to scream to be heard. His words linger, like a message you read twice to fully absorb.

This is a breakup song that’s not about anger or betrayal—it’s about distance, emotional detachment, and the way relationships fade without anyone saying it outright. That level of nuance is something Dreezer excels at, and it's what makes “APART” feel so personal—even if it's not your story, it somehow becomes your story.

Let’s be honest—Alan Dreezer’s been on a winning streak. From chart-toppers like “TAKE ME BACK” to the award-winning soul of “Love Didn’t Hurt Me (It Was You)”, he’s proven that independent artists can deliver pop with polish, heart, and staying power. He’s not chasing trends—he’s creating timeless, grown-up pop for listeners who want to feel something.

With “NOTHING CHANGES IF NOTHING CHANGES” on the horizon, “APART” suggests this third album won’t just be a collection of songs—it’ll be a journey, a meditation on growth, resilience, and emotional evolution.

Let’s not forget, this isn’t a newcomer we’re talking about. Alan’s decades of experience in bands, duos, and now as a solo artist inform every note he sings and every lyric he pens. His voice isn’t just technically solid—it’s seasoned, expressive, and unmistakably his.

“APART” is an elegant, emotionally honest pop-soul gem—the kind of track that sneaks into your head and stays there, not because it’s flashy, but because it’s true. It’s introspective, smooth, and sonically satisfying, continuing Dreezer’s tradition of crafting music that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable.

This one’s for the late-night thinkers, the broken-hearted healers, and anyone who’s ever felt close to someone while feeling galaxies apart.
