Tribal

(Tribal House Music ) tribal house is a form of electronic dance music derived from house music but being highly drum-centric and often without a core melody.

In many tribal house tracks, it is rare to find a core melody or prolonged synth sound, such as those found in techno music and similar electronic music styles. Instead, tribal house tracks rely on sophisticated drum patterns for their rhythm. A track can consist of several different drum sounds.

There is no clear-cut definition of tribal house music, instead tracks are usually classified or perceived as tribal because of their live sound. Tribal house is reminiscent of the ethnic music of various tribes of Africa and South America, and it is not unusual for this music to feature chanting and ululation as a cappellas. Tribal music can be produced with either live (ie. with real drums and instruments) or digital instrumentation: however, live-produced music of this sort in the purest sense is seen as ethnic, while digital tribal music is called 'tribal house'.

tribal dances

The dances that black people and wannabe black people do at certain gatherings that involve dancing, such as school dances, clubs, and even on the street. These "dances" are random movements of the body that look completely retarded as if they are having a seizure with style, but unfortunately everyone thinks it's cool because they are black. Black girls tend to do this the most, while their friends watch and say the phrases "that's hot" and "OOOoooooOOO straight goods". The word "tribal dances" originates from the greek/latin word "tribalous o dancenous" and "dumbassous o dancingmoronous"

Billy said he benched 600 pounds the other day after a 12 mile run, it was a little bit of a tribal boast.
