about

‘Alpha’, Dexter’s third single, is his most introspective proposition to date, demonstrating the breadth of Dexter’s artistry. A far more somber offering, the arrangement is simultaneously claustrophobic and weightless in its tonal nature. Driven by a smoky 80s-infused synth line, the spacious arrangement has an enveloping nocturnal atmosphere sprinkled with luminous keys and lingering chimes in the outro. Once again, Dexter worked closely with David A. Tapley (Tandem Felix) and engineer Stephen Dunne, with Ryan Hargadon playing saxophone on this brilliantly dynamic and sophisticated soundscape.


Countering the ethereal instrumentation is Dexter’s commanding raspier cadence which steers the composition, exemplifying his extraordinary vocal range. One that is a continually captivating presence across his multifaceted material.
