Techno finds its roots in tribal music. Its repetitive patterns allow deep self-reflection and strong connection to inner feelings.

Not really. Not in the in sense of where the music came from. I'd agree on an enjoyment level it taps into something similar. But the roots of the genre as far as I am aware owe nothing to tribal music.

What tribes? Where? When?

Techno is the sound of automation, or as one of the Detroit originators said, 'like James Brown and Kraftwerk stuck in an elevator together'.
