The article lacks contemporary practices in the genre, the current sub-genres, and it could use a touch on its history and characteristic.

Deep house is a subgenre of house music. It originated in the 1980s, initially fusing elements of Chicago house with 1980s jazz-funk and touches of soul and disco music. Today the term Deep House is a generalization of underground styles of dance music that stick true to the root

Deep house tracks generally have a tempo of between 120 and 125 beats per minute (BPM).

This style of house music can often have an acoustic feeling. The genre is commonly associated with a rhythmic four the floor pattern based around a groovy bassline

The online music store Beatport is credited with driving the popularity of deep house, but also mislabeling a number of artists in the process and giving rise to the future house genre.
