Conchita incorporates different elements from multiple music genres into Conchita Wurst's typical
baroque pop sound.[2] Several electronic genres can be found on Conchita with influences from
dubstep to
house in general on "Out of Body Experience" and "Somebody to Love". For example, "You Are Unstoppable" and "Up for Air" draw heavily from
electropop while fourth single "Colours of Your Love" includes
club music in its composition.[2] With "Firestorm" Wurst links
house to
Europop.[2]

Critical reception
In an early review of the album, Luis Gonzalez of Album Confessions wrote, "With a solid blend of pop, dance and opera, the artist's inspiring way with words creates powerful, impressive and soaring numbers that should bring a smile to any listener's face. Isn't that what pop music should do? Cause a smile? Wurst may use the persona of 'the bearded lady' to stand out from the crowd, but she really doesn't need it. Her beautiful performances across the album do all the talking."[2]
