The music styles featured on "Happily Tired" are drum and bass (dnb) and drumfunk.

Booca’s Happily Tired begins with an unconventional bass-line melody. The breaks are broken and layered with sound effects, pushing and pulling at the rhythm and tempo. Starting with a Halfstep feel, the percussion edits crescendo into a heavily syncopated Two Step pattern. Booca’s Drum and Bass style ends up being close to Breakcore or Glitch. The harmony is in the background until the breakdown which reveals a new melody much like the sun rising in the morning.

Booca’s Secret Secretary features gentle tones amongst the chaotic, rolling drum beats. The rhythm stays constant despite detailed percussion change ups and effects. Vocal snippets, sax notes, synthesizer notes, and guitar all carefully build into the same tones as the harmony.
