[10][11] As opposed to Mellow Moon, which Templeman had written and produced by himself in his bedroom during the COVID-19 pandemic,[10][12] partially due to his childhood interstitial lung disease[10] (first diagnosed in 2019),[13] the artist worked with various other producers on Radiosoul, with the likes of Will Bloomfield, Justin Young,[8][12] Dan Carey, Charlie J. Perry,[10][11] Josh Scarbrow, Karma Kid, Oscar Scheller[1] and Nile Rodgers – who co-produced and featured on the song "Just A Dance" – all being involved in the recording process.

[10] The artist himself described the project as "incohesively cohesive",[8] while citing the likes of Stereolab, MGMT, Dua Lipa, Prince, Talking Heads,[4] The Beatles,[6][9] Todd Rundgren,[9] David Bowie[14][16] and Nile Rodgers—who he had first met with in 2021 and featured on the song "Just a Dance"—as his main inspirations for the album.

[14][15] From a lyrical point of view, the album mainly focuses on Templeman's shift from adolescence to early adulthood, as well as other personal experiences;[2][10][12] the topics include his struggles with mood swings and burnout while touring ("Eyes Wide Shut"),[3] the negative effects of social media overuse (the title track),[4] isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic ("Hello Lonely"),[5] his move to London ("Beckham")[10] and his anxiety issues ("Run to Tomorrow").

[8][9] He also stated that Radiosoul reflected his more mature and meaningful approach to lyrics in comparison to his earlier works,[8][9][11] as he explained in an interview with DIY:[11] I'm so fed up of being nonsensical [in my songs].

With this album, it's about what happens after coming out of it, and saying, "I'm a bit fuzzy".The lead single from Radiosoul, "Eyes Wide Shut", was released on 13 February 2024, together with an official music video.

[17][18] In May 2024, the artist performed on the New Music Stage at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend festival in Luton,[19] where he played an unreleased song from the LP, "Just a Dance";[20] the track, featuring Nile Rodgers, was officially released as the fifth and final single from the album on 2 June 2024.

[23] Dan Harrison of Dork praised Templeman's artistic progress in comparison to his previous works, writing that "in many ways, Radiosoul feels like the debut album [he] always wanted to make".
