Set the Mood is the debut studio album of British singer-songwriter David Jordan. Before the release of the album, Jordan had written between 60 to 100 songs. These songs were then whittled down to 11 for the final track listing of Set the Mood. The album was produced by Trevor Horn, who has also worked with Seal and the English dance-pop band Frankie Goes To Hollywood. "Place in My Heart" was released as Set the Mood's lead single on October 22. The album was released simultaneously in the UK, France and Germany a week later. Set the Mood and Jordan received many positive reviews following the album's October 29 release. The singer was dubbed the British version of Justin Timberlake, and compared with artists such as Lenny Kravitz, Prince and Michael Jackson.
Prior to recording Set the Mood, Jordan had written between 60 to 100 songs, within a four year time period. The singer's record company then chose the best 11 songs for the album. "Sun Goes Down" was written when the musician was 16 years old. Jordan stated that the song was about the parties he and his friends held at Old Street Studios in London, and what he would see there. "It's about when the sun goes down in London, all the madness starts." The album was produced by Trevor Horn, who has also produced for Seal and the English dance-pop band Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Horn assembled the album over 18 months before the final product was created. Jordan praised the producer, stating, "He's everything people say he is; he's a genius really and I'm having a great time working with him". Jordan discovered by Horn's wife, Jill Sinclair, co-founder of ZTT Records. Initially, Jordan was not aware of who Horn was. "My reaction was, 'Who?' I'd never heard of ABC, Seal or Frankie Goes To Hollywood. I wasn't aware of Trevor's amazing track record but when I discovered who he'd been involved with I felt honoured."
