Por la última decada, El Tule ha venido perfilando su sonido que es una combinación de Cumbia, Merengue,Cubano, Salsa, Rock y Raggae, entre otros. La música ha sido influenciada por el arte, la historia, y la cultura; enfocando leyendas, tradiciones y lo místico. Entre los favoritos de los "fans" están: "El Chupacabra," una espeluznante interpretación de un animal que le chupa sangre de las cabras o corderos. "La Ruta Maya" donde se otorga tributo al famoso camino de los Mayas, y Media Noche, una elegía a los sueños evocados entre las horas de la media noche y la aurora. Los Sonidos musicales están constantemente en una progresión que nos transportan a recuerdos, experiencias e influencias; Siempre paralelo a la meta principal del grupo, la música adquiere su propia dimension y en forma natural trasciende los niveles culturales y sociales. Dicho simplemente, El Tule está para aquellos que les gusta el baile, sienten y disfrutan todo lo que es positivo en lo que se expresa con la música.
