Arntzen’s approach to composition is marked by a delicate interplay between improvisation and structured melodies, forging a path that encourages emotional authenticity. He often employs minimalistic arrangements that allow each instrument's voice to breathe, resulting in a sonic landscape where silence becomes as significant as sound, thus enhancing the overall emotional weight of his pieces.
