UK Bass/Bass music - what is it. How to produce?

hey guys,

I've been listening to some so called 'bass music' but I honestly can't yet put a finger on what exactly it means. Seems like so much stuff is being grouped into it - from deep house to drum and bass too dubstep.

Especially I want to know because I want to try producing it. When I am told house music I know its usually 4 on the floor kick pattern. With bass music i cant seem to find any tutorials online.

Id appreciate any insight into what UK Bass and Bass Music is and how can I get producing it.

Thanks
