Morphology
clusterbumble + style
One constituent, 'clusterbumble', is not a recognized lexical item and appears to be a creative/slang blend; knowing 'style' alone (manner) does not allow a B1 learner to derive the phrase meaning. Even if a learner guessed from parts like 'cluster' and 'bumble' that it implies chaotic or confused manner, this is a nonce/slang formation and therefore unpredictable and opaque to learners without prior exposure.
Etymology
Clusterbumble style may come from combining cluster (a group) and bumble (to act clumsily). Imagine a clumsy bee flying into a group and causing a messy mix-up, so it means 'a confusing or chaotic' way of doing things.
