CYRK is a live show and studio project by Sammy Goossens and Pascal Hetzel. They mix up a love of Italo, Detroit-influenced techno, acid and electro on cult labels like Running Back, Polari and Lone Romantic. This one sees them link with Hard Ton, aka Wawashi Deejay and heavy metal singer Max. They have been leading the way in Italo disco and Chicago fusions since 2008, often with anthemic vocal tracks that come with a proudly oversized queer persona.

‘Take Me To The Top’ is a superb collision of worlds—throwback 80s synth sounds, crashing drums, and Italo arps are all topped off with sensual vocals. The results are raw and physical but steeped in heartfelt emotion and brought to life with plenty of retro-future colours.

Remixer Jorkes is a force on the European underground who has the queer community at the centre of his work. He has released passionate house and disco on labels like Robert Johnson, Permanent Vacation and Freeride Millenium. The remix is a slightly more paired back trip infused with pixelated chord magic and warm, heartfelt grooves that cruise through cosmic worlds with style and grace.

This exclusive re-edit sees Freeride Millenium boss and respected DJ/producer Jorkes reinvent a cult gem from German language queer band, Rosenstolz. Rosenstolz were a Berlin duo operating through the 90s and 00s and this song, ’Sex Im Hotel’ brings together their sex positive attitude with a real feel for their political outlook. This is something that obviously resonates with Jorkes, a continual crusader for sexual and social positivity and a much loved face in Europe’s queer music scene. Jorkes’ Freeride Millenium label has been a beacon of quality music over recent years with contributions from the likes of Benjamin Frohlich, Hard Ton nd_baumecker, Rotciv and many more.

The imprint was also behind the charity compilation ‘Queer Base’ which was hugely critically acclaimed and raised money for the charity of the same name in Jorkes’ adopted home of Vienna. For this Rosenstolz remix, Jorkes twists up the original in sea of squelchy acidic lines, providing a perfect new sound-bed for the distinctive vocals of Rosenstolz’s AnNa R. It’s a delightful re-edit that is sure to get you on your feet! You can check this out here and head over to Jorkes’ Bandcamp page to download.
