About deep house
Deep house came out of Chicago and New York in the late 1980s, mixing house rhythms with jazz and soul chords. It is warmer and slower than mainstream dance music, built for long nights and lounges rather than peak-time drops.
AI models produce convincing deep house when the prompt focuses on groove and chords: rounded bass, offbeat hi-hats and warm organ or Rhodes stabs.
