In an interview with BNT, Code Kunst explained why he named the album Crumple. People's faces usually crumple when they really appreciate music or movies. I got inspiration from that. It is a form of admiration that is shown on the face. Music and lyrics 
Code Kunst creates a dreamy atmosphere by using various synth sounds on top of a rhythm with thick texture. While his signature technique of combining noise and vocal sources is used, variations in beats such as the second half of "Dig!" and "What I Feel" stand out. Meanwhile, the featuring artists share their stories by rapping tightly as if they were competing with each other. "Golden Cow" depicts the past and present of C Jamm and Code Kunst. "Edison" bodies out the image of experimenting in a laboratory through variations in the hook and bridge. "Love Scene" is the suicide note of a "pathetic" Asian man who fell in love with a beautiful white woman but got beaten up by her boyfriend. It reinterprets the texture and mood of hip hop drums in Britpop style. Critical reception 
Lee Jin-seok of Rhythmer rated the album 4 out of 5 stars. According to him, it is evident that Code Kunst paid close attention to the texture and sound of each track and the instrument and sound sources are well harmonized. Critics of Music Y rated "Address" 4 out of 5 stars. According to Kim Jeong-won, it reflects Hwaji's concern about how to tell his story and reveals Code Kunst's ability to bring it forth.
