Music

The album includes 15 songs broadly categorised as dance-pop with a tropical influence. Billboard magazine mentioned its potential crossover pop appeal due to its "stirringly emotional moments and dance floor feelings". Earmilk also noted the album's Latin influence due to collaborations with Enrique Iglesias and Yashua. Dancing Astronaut called attention to Matoma's "sun drenched style" on the album and its changes in tempo, with "Slow" being "tamer" while tracks like "Sunday Morning" are "high energy".
In a track-by-track rundown of the album, Matoma explained that he decided to include "False Alarm" again because "the story behind the song and how much it has meant to me deserves a place on this album".
