Jorkes presents Center of Attention EP

Jorkes reflects on the fulfillment of short-lived joys dripping with erotic passion and sexual tension on their Center of Attention EP.

Austria-based Jorkes is a celebrated and dynamic house and disco talent whose creativity is rooted in authenticity and LGBTQIA+ pride. Co-running the Freeride Millenium label with partner Daniel Rajcsanyi, they channel emotion, community, and unabashed erotic imagery into every release. Since debuting in 2016, Jorkes has released on AUS, Live at Robert Johnson, and Permanent Vacation, and has lit up the airwaves of NTS and Beats In Space and clubs from Panorama Bar to Bassiani to Basement NYC. They once again serve up music with a social consciousness here.

After climax, we drift apart like particles shot into diﬀerent galaxies. A soft 'thanks, bye' echoes where seconds before there was fire. It's the familiar choreography of a gay bathhouse, a darkroom, a fleeting connection in the shadows: passion distilled into its purest, most concentrated form - intense, wordless, immediate. It's consumed in the present tense. Volatile. Electric. Already dissolving while it happens. Yet something remains. In these brief collisions, we exchange more than touch. We take a fragment of each other - a scent, a memory, a vibration under the skin - and we leave behind a piece of ourselves, surrendered without promise of return. There's something profoundly romantic in that surrender. Something communal. A silent agreement between bodies: we meet, we merge, we let go. No future. No past. Only now.

"Longing (and) Dissolving" has a voyeuristic edge, as if you're tuning into intimate sexual whispers between interlocked lovers. Deep, booming, muscular house kicks fade in and out of earshot, heavy breathing turns up the heat, and sexual tension drips from every beat. "Hungry for Presence" bottles up the rush of a sexual encounter with zippy synths darting about like furtive eyeballs in a crowded space. Clipped drums power on as sweat forms on the brow and acid arrives to take you to ecstasy - it's unadulterated house filth for throbbing dancefloors.
