DJ SOUP @ SOUL OF SYDNEY OCT 2025 | ACID JAZZ FUNK & HIP HOP VIBES | SOS441

Sydney’s own producer, beatmaker and crate-digging legend DJ SOUP set the tone at the SOUL OF SYDNEY 2025 season opener with a smooth and sun-soaked session of feel-good grooves. His 60 min selection was a masterclass in laid-back rhythm and deep musical knowledge, weaving together acid jazz, funk, golden-era hip hop and soulful instrumentals that perfectly matched the afternoon’s easy energy.

Known for his seamless blends and razor-sharp ear for dusty breaks, DJ SOUP took dancers and loungers alike on a journey through rare grooves, jazzy samples and head-nodding beats that celebrated the roots of soulful street culture.
