deep funk
Serious emotional slump
Deep funk describes a state of profound depression or dejection—a low mood more intense than ordinary sadness: After the divorce, he fell into a deep funk for months.
The phrase also names a subgenre of funk music characterized by heavy, raw grooves and sparse arrangements, emphasizing rhythm over polish: The DJ played nothing but deep funk all night.
