Tribal House

By the early '90s, house music had undergone several fusions with other styles, creating ambient-house, hip-house and, when the four-on-the-floor punch was blended with polyrhythmic percussion, Tribal-House. The style covers a bit of ground, from the mainstream leanings of Frankie Bones and Ultra Naté to the electro-hippie sensibilities of Banco de Gaia, Loop Guru, and Eat Static (all denizens of the U.K.'s Planet Dog Records).
