Background

edit

Only in Dreams was announced in January 2019.[1] To promote the album, the duo released "Take Me Home" featuring English singer Jem Cooke in February.[2][3] In an interview with Dancing Astronaut, the duo cited the song as one of their favourites from the album, reasoning that it allowed them to represent the variety in their sound.[4]

To further promote the album, Delta Heavy announced a world tour, which began on 1 February and concluded on 15 June.[1][5]

In an interview with EDMIdentity, Simon Hall described that despite the lack of a concrete concept for the album, he and Ben James came up with the title independently and that it was relatable.[6]

Reception

edit

Only in Dreams was met with positive reviews.[7] BroadwayWorld praised the album on release, calling it a "work of maturity and bristling confidence."[8]
