Deep house samples feature warm sub basslines, lush chord pads, brushed snare loops, jazzy electric piano phrases, and silky pitched vocal cuts. Emerging from Chicago's existing house scene in the mid-1980s, deep house was further shaped by the influence of jazz, soul, and funk. Its introspective, groove-centered aesthetic set it apart from harder-edged house styles and went on to influence other dance movements like UK garage, afro house, and amapiano.
