JEFF SORKOWITZ'S 'MOVE SHAKE' EMERGES AS A SUMMER CLUB FAVOURITE
Brooklyn’s Jeff Sorkowitz continues to build serious momentum with ‘Move Shake’, a minimal-leaning club cut that has quickly taken on a life of its own. Released via IN / ROTATION, the track has gained early attention after soundtracking Carl Cox’s viral stage walk ahead of his sold-out Château de Chantilly performance, placing the record in front of a wider global audience.
Built around a stripped, rolling groove, ‘Move Shake’ captures the kind of underground energy that has long shaped Sorkowitz’s sound. It is direct, percussive and made for movement, balancing a dubby sense of depth with the kind of club-focused rhythm that works across both dark warehouse spaces and bigger rooms. Rather than relying on oversized breakdowns or obvious peaks, the track locks into its groove and lets the rhythm do the work.
That approach has become central to Jeff’s identity as both an artist and label head. As the founder of Short Circuit, one of the better-known names in the minimal and deep tech space, Sorkowitz has helped cultivate a sound rooted in tight drums, low-end pressure and underground sensibility. The label’s music has travelled far beyond Brooklyn, with releases being played in major club spaces including Printworks London, DC10 Ibiza and Space Miami.
Alongside his work with Short Circuit, Sorkowitz has continued to build his own reputation as a producer capable of moving between dubby, clubby and peak-time spaces. His music has earned consistent support from heavyweights including Michael Bibi, Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati, Marco Carola and more, reflecting a growing presence within the wider underground house and tech scene.
With ‘Move Shake’, that momentum feels like it is reaching another level. The track’s connection to Carl Cox’s viral Château de Chantilly moment has given it a strong story, but the record itself stands on its own: a clean, functional, groove-heavy cut built for DJs and made to move dancefloors. For Jeff Sorkowitz, it marks another confident step in taking the Short Circuit sound from Brooklyn to the world.
