James Dyer is back with a strong new single, "How Do You Feel?," that shows a significant change in the way he makes music. Dyer teams up with US producer Michael Estok to create an alternative indie song that makes you feel both close and far away, like the music for a quiet night drive.
The single quickly shows how Dyer can mix deep emotions with movie-like elements. "How Do You Feel?" is inspired by musicians such as Sam Fender and The War on Drugs, combining thoughtful synth-rock sounds with warm, immersive melodies that draw listeners into its deep world. Dan Millice, a Grammy-winning mastering engineer, gave the production a unique openness that lets each note breathe and resonate.
The song's words and music talk about the complicated feelings that come with watching someone you love struggle, as well as the gentle hope that comes with helping them. Dyer's story is interesting without being too pushy. The audience feels seen, welcomed, and inspired in the end. The sound is both modern and classic, taking cues from indie music while creating a sound all Dyer's own.
"How do you feel?" Not only is it a great song, but it also makes you think, reflect, and connect with other people. It has a warm, movie-like quality that makes it great for late-night drives or times when you want to think. It has a well-made, radio-ready sound and an emotional story, showing that James Dyer is an artist who is open to change. He explores both sound and story with depth and honesty, appealing to fans of indie discovery and emotionally resonant songwriting.
Dyer not only invites listeners to "How Do You Feel?" but he also makes sure they feel seen, heard, and surrounded by a movie-like soundscape that stays with them long after the last note.
