The release of the album was accompanied by a 33-minute visual album featuring a series of music videos for six tracks from the album such as Dance with Danger, White Rabbit, Glow, Ivory, Grey Skies, and Wildest Dreams. The visual album was directed by Dominic Bekaert.[3]
Ever since Lustre's move to Careless, her sound has evolved from bubblegum pop to pop-soul and urban indie, as heard on singles such as "St4y Up" (2018), "I Like It" (2018), and "No 32" (2019). Although production and conception of the album had started before the COVID-19 pandemic, Lustre admitted that she was able to do a lot of writing for the album during the government-imposed community quarantine. She collaborated for the songwriting with Massiah (Haissam Morton), Bret Jackson (KINGwAw), James Reid, Marcus Davis, and Calvin Fernandez. Production was done by Jackson, Reid, Davis, Fernandez, Isagani Palabyab, and Kahlil Ho Atienza.
Lustre released the title track "Wildest Dreams" as the album's lead single on October 16, 2020.[4]
On October 12, 2020, an announcement that Lustre would be releasing a single entitled "Wildest Dreams" was posted on Careless Music's Instagram page.[4] The single's sound and genre was described as having a "contemporary R&B punch" and as "dance pop with an experimental injection of dark dreamy R&B and a cinematic climax to boot".[4] The song was written by Lustre herself, together with fellow Careless artists, KINGwAw and Massiah. Isagani Palabyab, KINGwAw and James Reid were credited as producers, with mastering done by Marcus Davis.[4]
On October 14, 2020, it was reported by Rappler that aside from the single, Lustre was also set to release a full-length album, which was also called Wildest Dreams.[1]
