Kirk Franklin Tribute Mix
Soul of Sydney

In celebration of one of the greatest modern gospel artists of our time, Soul of Sydney presents a special Kirk Franklin Tribute Mix — a journey through gospel-inspired funk, soul, hip hop, and a touch of disco goodness.

Kirk Franklin has redefined gospel music for generations, bridging faith, culture, and the dancefloor with fearless creativity and undeniable groove. This mix pays respect to his influence beyond church walls — into clubs, community, and global music culture.

Curated as Kirk Franklin heads to Australia on tour, culminating in his Sydney Opera House Steps performance next week, this tribute blends uplifting energy, classic gospel moments, and soulful rhythms that honour his legacy and impact.

Expect:
✨ Gospel roots with funk & soul edges
✨ Hip hop energy and crossover anthems
✨ Feel-good disco touches and joyful praise
✨ Music that moves both spirit and body

Turn it up, feel the love, and celebrate a true icon.

Soul of Sydney — music, culture, and community.

RARE GOSPEL DISCO VINYL MIX by GIANO ARPINO

Many many years ago in Sydney, we bumped into a local DJ, CRATE DIGGER & all-around good bloke GIAN ARPINO warming things up for DAM FUNK tour. On that night he dropped some of the finest 1980s-inspired boogie funk we had heard at the time.

Has been sending us dope mixes, podcasts & wine recommendations for the best part of 15 years now since we hand this FUNK blog. We connected then & he introduced & educated us to so much of the music that has formed the foundation of pretty much everything we do today. This latest mix is a special one for us being massive fans of GOSPEL, it is an Easter mix showcasing some of the rare GOSPEL DISCO goodness in his record collection under his new project COLLECTED RHYTHMS.

Check him out on socials for more info on any releases, podcasts & gigs around town & wine recommendations.
