The release date for Glorious was announced by Arty through Twitter on 12 August 2015, where he stated that listeners can expect "indie dance, old-school progressive, pop and French house inspired records" on the album.

[10] Based on Arty, his first stint in the songwriter studio went awry, as he lacked the knowledge to technically explain his music to the writers, but his subsequent visits became easier as he brought instrumental parts of his tracks to be improved together with the melody and vocals.

[10] Glorious was also influenced by the emotional ups and downs experienced by Arty as he lived through his life, thus every track had a personal background relating to his prior chronicles.

“I had transferred all of my emotions into that musical form.”[12] Arty was also able to experiment with different sounds on Glorious, as his contracts with labels Anjunabeats and Spinnin' Records restricts him from releasing pop-oriented songs through them.

He described "Inertia" as having a "disco house vibe with a modern twist", and "Last Kiss" which "showcases what a gifted pianist Arty is, combining an emotional melody with a catchy beat".
