Deep house is a genre of House music that grew out of Chicago House during the mid-1980s. Pioneered by Larry Heard and Marshall Jefferson, the genre is characterized by a relaxed tempo of around 110-125 BPM, soft pads, and muted basslines, and often features samples from Soul, Jazz, and Funk. Originally emerging from Chicago and New York, the genre spread to Europe in the early 1990s, where it saw considerable popularity. Deep house remained popular into the 2000s and 2010s, seeing some crossover with Tech House and Progressive House.
