Loke used to be a member of Lust For Youth. How does this collaboration differ from that previous configuration of the band? Is it simply a matter of semantics? Are there different creative dynamics?

Fischer: Just before Loke and I joined LFY in 2013 the two of them did the record Pomegranate as LFY and Croatian Amor. The initial idea for All Worlds was revisiting that space but it quickly turned into something entirely different. Early on in the process the ideas were a bit all over place, but nothing was discarded and we sort of just went along, which felt liberating. And in the end the tracks belonged together.  

Norrvide: Working the three of us again was a new experience. We worked separately on the writing, meeting weekly or sharing ideas back and forth, building and revising each other's work. This was refreshing for me, especially after feeling stuck with computer-based creativity, where endless options felt paralyzing. For this record, we embraced a sense of freedom I hadn't experienced before. Ideas and influences I wouldn’t have considered in the past became central to the process. I’d start with something unexpected, like a harp sample, and challenge myself to make it fit. The playfulness and open-minded approach was inspiring for me.

Could you talk about your upcoming single?

Fischer: “Kokiri” was the last track that made it on the record. It’s very simple in its structure and gradual dynamic buildup.

Rahbek: I like “Kokiri” a lot, it’s one of my favorites. Hannes came up with the name, I think it’s perfect.
