Gumboot dancers typically use traditional South African music, particularly styles rooted in the culture of the gold mining communities where the dance originated. The music often features rhythmic clapping, stomping, and the use of gumboots as percussive instruments. Additionally, songs may include call-and-response vocals, incorporating elements of Afro-pop or Folk Music that reflect the dancers' experiences and heritage. The overall sound is energetic and lively, complementing the dynamic movements of the dance.
