Like its predecessor, Subliminal Sandwich, the album deeply intertwines multiple forms of electronic music with live instruments such as the bass clarinet, saxophone, drums and Fender Rhodes. However, Actual Sounds + Voices is more influenced by jazz,[5] coupled with a darker tone and characterized by persistent erratic breakbeats.
