Jimi Jules returns to Circoloco Records with Baby Run, an EP that reminds us why subtlety still matters in electronic music. In a scene increasingly driven by volume, drops, and instant impact, this release takes the opposite path — choosing emotion, restraint, and storytelling over easy formulas.
This is not a record made for algorithms or peak-time shortcuts.
It’s built for listeners who still care about feeling something on the dancefloor.

Baby Run — A Love Song at the Wrong BPM
At the heart of the EP lies Baby Run — its emotional anchor and most unforgettable moment.
It’s rare to find a dance track that can feel comforting and painful at the same time. Baby Run manages both. Warm melodies carry a strong sense of nostalgia, while the groove keeps pushing forward, almost indifferent to how deep the emotions run underneath.
What makes the track truly special is its tension.
It feels like a love song…
but played at the wrong BPM.
The tempo is too driven for something this tender — and that contradiction is exactly what gives the track its power. Instead of building toward obvious drops, Jimi Jules lets the melody breathe. The rhythm supports the emotion without ever overpowering it.
It’s a track that changes with time and place:
-
At sunrise, it feels hopeful.
-
Late at night, it feels fragile.
-
On a dancefloor, it catches you off guard when you least expect it.
The Rest of the EP
While Baby Run sets the emotional tone, the EP remains consistent from start to finish.
Turbo Rosso raises the energy with a more confident, driving groove. It works perfectly as a mid-set tool — building momentum without disrupting the mood. Powerful, but never aggressive.
Dreamin’ closes the release on a softer, more introspective note. Floating melodies and gentle rhythms create a dreamlike atmosphere, ideal for transitions, closings, or moments when the floor needs space rather than pressure.
Together, the three tracks form a coherent journey rather than a collection of tools.
Yalla Techno Outlook
Baby Run EP is a reminder that electronic music doesn’t need to shout to be effective.
Jimi Jules delivers a release that balances groove with vulnerability — working just as well in intimate listening moments as it does on serious sound systems.
For Circoloco, this EP fits naturally into their tradition of prioritizing soul over hype.
For listeners, it’s the kind of record you return to — not just to dance, but to reflect.
This isn’t just an EP you play.
It’s one you experience.
