Alan Peck – Dazed (2022)
When you first fall in love with someone, there comes a moment when you wonder if what you feel is a deeper commitment or a fleeting moment. This has been picked up by Alan Peck and turned into the battle between true love and infatuation that is ‘Dazed’. While hitting all the right notes to capture a single moment, there is a wider feeling to the track that lets you know that there is no right answer.
Bringing a soulful RnB flow to our ears, Peck takes us into his musical world where we can forget about reality for a moment and sink into the musical moments he creates. Peck’s musical journey started at age 14 and saw him auditioning for shows like America’s Got Talent and American Idol as soon as he was old enough. He sang in an award-winning choir, but decided to branch out when he moved for college and was able to embrace his own unique style.
‘Dazed’ opens with a really relaxed melody that transports you to a beach where you relax with a cool drink while the ocean laps on the sand. It is a really chilled vibe that comes through the melody only to get this little twist of soul. The warm heat of the sun beats down on your skin as you soak up all the pleasant vibes of the single. While relaxing, the melody gently moves you into the vocals with a light sway, like the breeze drifting over the ocean and ruffling your hair. The relaxing vibe of the music echoes the warmth and happiness that comes with falling in love. This ignites an ember of affection in your chest that glows like a beacon through the soundscape. Throughout the melody, there is a rise and fall into a shimmer of sound that takes the feeling of being by the ocean to another level.
As you sink into the richness of the melody, Peck’s soulful vocals sidle up next to you, sling a comfortable arm over your shoulders and draw you close. It is a happy embrace that you will relax into and is made more comfortable by the melody. Through the lyrics, he considers the feeling of falling in love and how you feel dazed by the affection you feel. It is a wonderful ode to the feeling of falling before it taps into the question of whether this is infatuation or true love. This question has been delicately woven into the vocals in a way that leaves you feeling the love without any judgement.
Alan Peck has you sinking into the rich sound of ‘Dazed’ as he transports you to the beach through the relaxed and soulful flows of the single. The melody is a wonderful combination of soul and RnB that chases all tension from your muscles. His vocals are like an affectionate embrace as he draws you into the feeling of falling in love.
