Up The Stuss is a house music label founded by Chris Stussy in 2020, born on a dancefloor in Sydney, Australia. The name originated from fans chanting "up the stuss" at his sets and became a hashtag on the Identification of Music Facebook group. Dedicated to releasing high-quality, limited-edition 12-inch vinyl pressings alongside digital, UTS has become a vital platform for cutting-edge electronic music. The label's debut release from Fabe set the tone for groovy, timeless electronic sounds, and releases from East End Dubs, Janeret, and Kolter quickly became top-sellers and instant record bag mainstays. Now celebrating five years, UTS continues to champion a roster of exceptional talent across deep house, minimal, and tech house. The label also hosts the USS event series, which launched with a sold-out daytime show at London's Roundhouse in February 2025, with further events planned at Pacha Ibiza and beyond.
Founded in 2020 with 45+ releases in their catalog, Up the Stuss is a House, Deep House and Minimal / Deep Tech label based in Amsterdam, NL.
