Frederick Jorio Presents Sextravaganza – Tribal Sextrax - A Collection Of Underground Tribal House is one of the best tribal house albums in the history of electronic music. The Tribal Sextrax album is a collection of underground tribal house songs he produced and arranged himself. This album serves as “Best Of” and Greatest Hits” for him in a way. However this album is different because of the number of songs which were used to make Tribal Sextrax a full album. Tribal Sextrax is another beautiful work of tribal house music performed by Frederick Jorio himself.
The sound and style are similar to Sextravaganza – Return Of Sextravaganza. The production on this album is very Afrocentric centered which is why you can hear Afrocentric beats and jungle beats all over the album. There is a lot of tribal madness on this album due to the tribal house sound and jungle house sound. Think tribal jungle. The sounds of dance and electronic meet each other on this album. This album has a melodic dance sound which meets the polished sounds of electronic music. Tribal Sextrax is extremely well produced and polished in an efficient manner. His work is extravagant as always. 90s house music can’t get any better than this. The sounds of 90s electronic music leaves much to be desired for the ears whether good or bad.
(All I Want Is) Sex is a sexy tribal house song perfect for the bedroom, night club, dance, or the dance floor. Orgasmic, sexy, and tribal are three words to describe this song. The song uses both tribal beats and jungle beats.
(I Want To) Take You Home Tonite is a perfect example of tribal house. The song uses congas performed by Ismael Bruno. Congas follow the rhythm of a kick drum next to a set of groovy bass lines. Now this version is not as orgasmic as the Sex Dub or the Danny Tanaglia mix.
Come On Everyone is driven by a repetitive vocal sample, a jazzy saxophone, bass lines, short electric synths, and a kick drum. Come On Everyone is one of his more underrated works of music. The song is perfect for the dance floor. The song follows a melodic rhythm. Now the saxophone gives the song an ambient sound. Ambient house music meets the sounds of dance and electronic on the song Come On Everyone.
The song Montobi's Raindance is filled with tribal madness as it uses lot of tribal house elements. Montobi's Raindance uses an eclectic Afrocentric blend of drums such as congas, bongos, and timbales. The Afrocentric drums blend in perfectly with the tribal house sound on this song as well as this album. Relaxing is one word to describe the mood of this song. Montobi's Raindance follows a tempo of 125 BPM. This is tribal America. The bass blends in perfectly with the Afrocentric blend of drums.
The Orgasm (Never Get Enough) (Sextribe Break) is one of the more orgasmic songs on the album. The Orgasm has a vibe, sound, and style that are similar to (All I Want Is) Sex.
Hey You is one of more well known songs that circulated in the underground scene of New York City. The song even managed enough buzz for the TRIBAL label to issue a single just for this song.
The song Montobi (Sextribe Mix) is filled with tribal madness as it uses lot of tribal house elements. Montobi (Sextribe Mix) uses an eclectic Afrocentric blend of drums such as congas, bongos, and timbales. The Afrocentric drums blend in perfectly with the tribal house sound on this song as well as this album. Relaxing is one word to describe the mood of this song. Montobi (Sextribe Mix) follows a tempo of 122 BPM. This is tribal America. Montobi (Sextribe Mix) is just as orgasmic as (I Want To) Take You Home Tonite.
Electric Jungle is an electronic hodgepodge of synths, notes and beats. This song uses a mixture of Latin jungle beats and Afrocentric tribal beats. Think jungle house for example.
Theme From Sextravaganza uses a funky bassline which is accompanied by synths and dance beats. This song is a mixture of electronic and dance music. The song is basically a tribal house instrumental laced with electronic synths and sounds.
I Won't Waste Your Time (Underground Smoothness) uses the smoothness of R&B and electronic in a tribal song. Joi Cardwell was the lead vocalist on this song. Her vocals are sung in perfect harmony and are sublime as always. You can’t go wrong with Joi Cardwell as the lead vocalist.
Come Drums serves as the closer for this album and uses a barrage of Afrocentric tribal house beats. The beats are not processed and are raw & unfiltered.
I rate this album 5/5*****!!
