Here's a tutorial from Airbase, where he's building a track from scratch. He has many other tutorials worthy to look at.

You may wonder it would be more artistic to dictate, invent trends instead of following them. Experiment, experiment, experiment! Trials and errors may lead you to much interesting results than perfectly following trendy suits.
Also it may happen, when you'll finally master recent years' trendy bass sound, it'll get out of date, and a new one appears.
