Souped Up is a London-based drum & bass label that drips with some of the fattest rollers and wobblers around. Led by D&B badmen Serum and Benny V, Souped Up have been carving their instantly recognisable bass face sound since it burst onto the scene in 2017. The forward-thinking label has so far churned out tunes from the likes of: Voltage, Bou, Dutta, T>I, Need For Mirrors, Mozey, Current Value, Levela, Ego Trippin and more. Rave favourites include Serum’s ‘Chop House’, Bou’s ‘Veteran (VIP)’ (feat. Trigga) and Bou, Simula and Bassman’s weapon, ‘Heavy & Dark’. Souped Up has a clear, colourful and unpretentious aesthetic and each release cover features a statement cartoon character. Reflecting their good humour, the label is also home to steroided-up soup can cartoon mascot, Vinny.
Review: Some dads clean up your mess. Other dads make you mess yourself. Other dads make the mess and expect you to clean it up. We don't even need to tell you what type of fathers Serum and Voltage are, but in case you're unaware of the mischievous influence they have on each other, let's just say they're not changing any nappies tonight. 'Pum Pum Rule' is a splat-and-dash dust-up with some of the funkiest drums the pair have ever programmed while 'Metamorphosis' takes us back to the late 2000s style of tear-up with very messy consequences. Watch out for volume two when they try and tell us about the birds and the bees. Eek.
