How to make Deep House in FL Studio

120–128 BPM · Minor or Dorian mode (warm, soulful feel)

Soulful, hypnotic house music with warm chord progressions, rolling basslines, and subtle groove. Think late-night dance floors and silky vocals.

Track elements

• Kick — Soft, deep 4-on-the-floor kick with subtle low-mid warmth.
• Bass — Rolling, melodic bass with movement every 2–4 bars.
• Chords — Jazz-influenced chords: 7ths, 9ths, and 11ths.
• Hi-Hats — Subtle, swung 16th-note hi-hats with light velocity variation.
• Vocal — Deep house vocals are smooth and soulful — think Chaka Khan over a four-on-the-floor beat.
• Structure — Long intro (16–32 bars) to build the atmosphere slowly.
