Tarraxinha
Tarraxinha is a dance and music genre that originated in Angola in the province of Benguela. [1]
During its inception, tarraxinha was criticized for being too sensual. [2] In recent times, more tarraxinha dancers have turned to music styles such as Ghetto-Zouk, and alongside kizomba, tarraxinha has been the influence of Urban Kiz. [3]
Tarraxo and Tarraxa
Tarraxo is both a dance and musical style that originates from Tarraxinha.[4] Tarraxo music appeared in the early 2010s in Lisbon in the Afro-Portuguese communities with pioneers such as Dj BeBeDeRa and Dj Matabaya Moreira. [4] In contrast, Tarraxo dance appeared in the late 2010s and varied from Tarraxinha in that you were able to move around more.[1]
Tarraxa is another word that has been used (outside of Angola) to refer to tarraxinha (the dance) as well as tarraxo (the dance and music), which has caused some confusion. [1]
