In June 2023, Lust For Youth and Croatian Amor shared the stage at the iconic

Sydney Opera House during the Vivid Live Festival. This encounter reignited

their creative partnership, laying the foundation for their collaborative new album

All Worlds.

Drawing inspiration from the Golden Record sent into space as humanity's

message to the unknown, All Worlds mirrors this longing for connection and

understanding. Each track captures a fragment of emotion, culture, or memory,

offering a kaleidoscopic view of the human experience.

The album's title reflects the idea of collecting fragments from disparate places,

feelings, and stories. Each song unveils a unique "world," contributing to

overarching themes of exploration and introspection. These "worlds" represent the

inner landscapes we carry, shaping our identities. The title also gestures toward

connection-as if these worlds float through space, waiting to be discovered and

understood. Ultimately, All Worlds embodies the quest for belonging and meaning.

Through a sonic journey of isolation, resilience, and wonder, introspective lyrics

intertwine with lush, evocative soundscapes. Retaining the dreamy atmospheres

characteristic of both Lust For Youth and Croatian Amor, the album's reverbdrenched production lends it an ethereal, nostalgic quality. While themes of

melancholy and longing are central, energetic beats and uplifting arrangements

introduce a bittersweet harmony that oscillates between vulnerability and euphoria.

The album marks a shift in tone, moving away from Lust For Youth's synth-driven

post-punk roots. Instead, All Worlds embraces a dance-oriented aesthetic, weaving

pulsating rhythms and techno-inspired motifs with layered vocal samples. The

result is a textured soundscape-an exploration of emotional fragility through

shimmering production and introspective melodies.

Celebrating twelve years since their 2013 ambient-industrial album Pomegranate, All

Worlds reflects the evolution of Lust For Youth and Croatian Amor. This album

serves as both a response to their earlier work and a progression informed by a

decade of growth and change. It deepens their exploration of sound and meaning,

speaking directly to the present moment.

Like the Golden Record adrift in space, All Worlds is a collection of moments

waiting to connect with those who choose to listen.
