"Dreamworld" drifts in on Under the Blacklight, the 2007 album that turned out to be Rilo Kiley's fourth and final one, and Blake Sennett wrote it with Morgan Nagler. The record put the band back together after a spell of solo projects, Jenny Lewis's Rabbit Fur Coat and Sennett's Sun, Sun, Sun with the Elected, and Jason Lader, who produced this track with the band, recorded it as well, with Adam Hawkins mixing.
The album reached British shops on August 20, 2007, a day ahead of its American release on Warner Bros., after the band had already streamed the whole thing on MySpace, and it came in a jewel case tinted purple, like a blacklight.
