The proliferation of AI-generated audio (so-called "deepfake" audio) poses significant threats to information integrity, from voice cloning fraud to synthetic music copyright disputes. We present a temporal coherence analysis framework built upon Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining (CLAP) embeddings that spans speech, instrumental music, and music with vocals. By computing pairwise cosine similarities between audio segment embeddings and extracting statistical features from the resulting distributions, we train lightweight ensemble classifiers that reliably distinguish authentic from synthetic audio. Our work provides an interpretable, computationally efficient alternative to common deep learning methods while still achieving competitive performance across speech and music domains. Further, we reveal two notable empirical findings about audio deepfakes: (1) a feature-label inversion phenomenon in which 21 of 29 statistical features reverse their discriminative direction between training and in-the-wild deployment, and (2) a speech--music direction reversal in which entropy discriminates in opposite directions for speech and music deepfakes.
