Cartalavonu is a diverse work that contrasts playful moments with majestic and techno tracks. It features a 2-note bassline in "Making Waves" and a Giorgio Moroder-style Moog pattern in "The Several-Night Stand". "Things Have Come to a Pretty Pass" includes a persistent falsetto vocal line, while "Additional Information" pays tribute to web synthesizer guru Cuckoo. The album also includes the enveloping techno track "Ci Siamo Chiusi Fuori" with mysterious Italian lyrics and the schizophrenic drum pattern in "Dancing Trees".
