Musical style
Bunt's musical style is described as "electronic folk music" and noted to be heavily influenced by late electronic music pioneer Avicii along with influences from musicians such as Justice, Basement Jaxx, Swedish House Mafia and Calvin Harris with elements of Fred Again.. When it was still a duo, BUNT. publicly stated that they are huge fans of Avicii, who had given them the inspiration to start creating their style of songs, which mixes electronic music with folk house music, which is something that is still new in the electronic music world. In a fan reply, BUNT. has publicly stated they were happy to be able to complete the song 'Crocodile Tears' as a final tribute to Avicii.
