DEBUT EP / EPK
Jojo Baklawa
Music Style
A club-ready world-music electronic EP about identity, self-expression, and the beauty of human imperfection in an age shaped by automation
The EP, rooted in the nostalgic internet culture Jojo grew up with, instead of chasing one polished, uniform direction, Jojo uses the concept as a home for his versatility, moving between heavier, club-focused tracks and more vocal-driven moments featuring his own voice and the voices of his friends. Each track opens its own world, but they all connect back to the same larger idea.
01 / 04▸ About - who is the human
FROM IZMIR, TURKEY
My Story
who I am, where I'm from
Multi-instrumentalist, producer, and vocalist Raz Ulukaya - Jojo Baklawa, his mom’s childhood nickname - started in his early teens with the Trance duo Status Zero, touring across Europe at a young age before taking a sharp pause to reshape his sound and pursue a more genreless approach. He comes out of the electronic music scene, born to a Jewish mother and a Turkish father, and raised between two worlds: a small village surrounded by farm animals and wheat fields, and an old-fashioned village in western Turkey, near Izmir, his father’s homeland, surrounded by hundred-year-old olive trees and water wells. His parents’ house was always filled with art - both of them true artists and adventurers, painters and musicians living life through total freedom, art, and discovery. Raised through an anthroposophic school environment, from playing piano at the age of 8, to soaking up his dad’s vinyl collection and ethnic string instruments, music was always around him.
++++
I grew up in a home where creativity wasn't just encouraged. It was part of who we were.
Both of my parents are artists at heart.
My dad, always with a camera in hand, captured the world around him. Photos, videos, memories of everyday life, through his lens.
My mom, an art history teacher and painter, brought the beauty of the past to life, and showed me how to see art in everything.
