Typically deep haus ranges from 110 to 125 bpm, but that line has been blurred so much since the development of digital mixers.
Beyond the bpm deep haus music is heavily baseline driven with spacious use of percussive elements, rhodes, soft keyboard sounds (pads) and chord structures. Although it has to be said, the sound varies broadly with spoken vocal, soulful lyrics, beautiful keys and more. Ultimately the deep haus sound is more about a feeling.
Deep haus has a global appeal but South Africa has developed as the home of deep haus in recent years with artists such as Jullian Gomes symbolising the new era of deep house there. People such as Lars Behrenroth, Andy Compton, Atjazz and more regularly tour there to huge audiences and my own social media stats show massive online appeal there. Other hot countries for deep haus are the USA, India and Europe.
Everyone has their own favourites - a Google Trends search ill show you The Godfathers of Deep House SA are huge! For me Miguel Migs, Mark Farina, Julius Papp, Atjazz, Larry Heard, Maya Jane Coles and Masters at Work are the biggest names. That said, one of the great things about the deep house genre is that is continually has new and exciting names to enjoy - many of which you can hear first on my own weekly podcasts and deep haus mixes.
Depending on whether you like your deep haus soulful, jazzy, disco infused, deep and dirty or just dark and moody. To be fair, there's a hundred great labels out there all pumping out decent tunes
