The company emerged from the fanzine published by Frank Kühl between 1983 and 1990 with an attached mailorder . The mailorder was sold in the early 1990s and has been active under the name Soundflat ever since. It was first published on the label in 1986. In the mid-1990s, the focus of business activities shifted to artist management and the music publishing business.
The music publisher, founded in 1999, represents works by bands such as King Khan & The Shrines, mardi gras.bb and Sono , as well as titles by German-speaking bands such as Angelika Express , Family 5 and Voltaire . With a sales change to Rough Trade Distribution , the label activities were expanded again in 2010 and artists such as Dikta , Uncle Ho and David Pfeffer & Band were signed. The artists represented by Smarten-Up also include music producers such as Dave Anderson.
