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.
