Albums of recorded music were developed in the early 20th century, first as books of individual 78rpm records, then from 1948 as vinyl LP records played at 33 1⁄3 rpm. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though in the 21st century albums sales have mostly focused on compact disc (CD) and MP3 formats. The audio cassette was a format used in the late 1970s through to the 1990s alongside vinyl.
An album may be recorded in a recording studio (fixed or mobile), in a concert venue, at home, in the field, or a mix of places. Recording may take a few hours to several years to complete, usually in several takes with different parts recorded separately, and then brought or "mixed" together. Recordings that are done in one take without overdubbing are termed "live", even when done in a studio. Studios are built to absorb sound, eliminating reverberation, so as to assist in mixing different takes; other locations, such as concert venues and some "live rooms", allow for reverberation, which creates a "live" sound. The majority of studio recordings contain an abundance of editing, sound effects, voice adjustments, etc. With modern recording technology, musicians can be recorded in separate rooms or at separate times while listening to the other parts using headphones; with each part recorded as a separate track.

"Dreaming" is the third single from Scribe's debut album, The Crusader. In New Zealand, it was released as a double A-side with "So Nice". Lyrically, the song is about Scribe's childhood aspirations. It had commercial success in New Zealand and Australia, appearing on the singles charts of both countries, and topping the latter.
"Dreaming" was included on Pasifika - The Collection, compiled by the managers of the Pasifika Festival. The compilation album debuted at number one on the New Zealand Music Compilations Chart.
According to Russell Baillie from The New Zealand Herald, the production of "Dreaming" by P-Money gives the song "a mix of askew soul-sweetness". "Dreaming" is about Scribe's childhood ambitions, which gives it an "autobiographical out-from-under theme...without sounding cliched or tryhard".
The music video for "Dreaming" was directed by Chris Graham. Funding was provided by New Zealand On Air. It opens with shots of clouds moving across the sky in a time-lapse style, followed by Scribe writing a song, and later recording it. He then raps with friends in an urban area. The video is interspersed with childhood pictures of Scribe and others.
Dreaming is a 1945 British comedy film directed by John Baxter and starring Bud Flanagan, Chesney Allen and Hazel Court. Its plot concerns a soldier who is knocked unconscious during a battle and has a series of bizarre dreams.
"Dreaming" is a song by British band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark released in 1988 as a single from their compilation album, The Best of OMD. It was a hit in the United States, reaching number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 6 on the Dance chart. The track had limited success in the band's home country, where it peaked at number 50 on the UK Singles Chart. The cover art was designed by Stylorouge, with photography by Andrew Catlin.
Until OMD's reformation in 2010, "Dreaming" was the last single to feature the group's original line-up; lead singer Andy McCluskey was the only core member to appear on their 1991–1996 output.
Stewart Mason, in a retrospective review for AllMusic, described the song as "dynamite", and wrote: "['Dreaming'] is easily the group's best single since 1983's 'Telegraph'... It's a near-perfect pop song, perhaps the last great single by an '80s synth-pop band."
All the single versions include "Satellite" as a B-side. The other B-side, "Gravity Never Failed", was a bonus track on the CD single. This song was originally titled "Georgia" and dates back to the 1981 Architecture & Morality sessions. However, the band lost their favour with the song and was thus shelved, and the title "Georgia" was given to a new song and featured on the album.
