* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: C418 is an odd person, which is reflected in his music and his digital footprint. Even the ambient ''Minecraft'' music he's known for poses some semblance of strangeness to it, even if he ''is'' trying to fit into the elegant freeform environment the game provides with his music.

* NonAppearingTitle: "Tsuki No Koibumi", "Semantic Sanitation", "Septic Shock", "Seismic Stratigraphy", "Ample Time", "Habitual Crush", "Round Up to the Inevitable End", "841", and "Blank Cubicle" are all songs with vocals, but their titles never appear in any of those songs in question, or come close to doing so. In terms of "Tsuki No Koibumi", though it's in a foreign language, the phrase is never heard, and in terms of "841", the entire song is a repeat of the ''reverse'' number (148) like the title of the album it's from, so its title never appears either.

* TheAntiNihilist: C418 seems to be ''very'' doubtful about his own capabilities as a music artist, as shown in plenty of his songs. This includes "I Jate My Hob" (I Hate My Job) from ''[=LCMSMiP=]'' (the entire album is about his shift into becoming a music artist, really), "Alive" from ''72 [=MoF=]'', which is about him questioning his old job; and "Blank Cubicle" from ''Dief'', which is about him questioning the paths he could've taken in life and the consequences of such.

He's also prone to SelfDeprecation as he thinks that his music is bad, though his fans assure him otherwise. Despite this, the music he makes in itself is somehow cheerful, showing that he doesn't let this negativity overcome him.

The arrangement and general sequencing isn't altered that significantly from their original versions, however, mostly being comprised of the original songs with an electronic beat layered on top and the original song audio slowed down, though "Vierton" is mostly a rearranging due to starting from the second half.
