Jaime Merlo a.k.a JimiTheGenius is a South Florida producer, remixer and dj that has leaped into the Worldwide Bass Music spotlight for countless years now. With his dope productions covering everything from modern day Miami Bass, Electro, Booty and Techno. His Miami Electro Bass sound, is a unique style of low end mixed with his dirty Kuad dropping futuristic sounds. For years now, his one of a kind JTG remixes have been known to help dj's get the party started off right. He has played throughout the East and West coast, while holding down the South at all the various massive shows 
throughout the country.

In 2003, Jimi joined forces with his good friend Richard Zarate a.k.a. Ashrock, to form Hydraulix aka Hydroz. Their first commercial release as 
Hydraulix, which was released on their self owned imprint (co-owned with Dj Merlyn), @kuadrecordings The buzz which “The Hydraulix E.P.” generated, was unimaginable and props began to role in for the duo. They've been a staple in the Miami Bass Electro scene and their Bass bumpin beats with their dirty low end, have been damaging dance floors worldwide for decades now. 

In 2009, Jimi joined forces once again with Supernaut, to form $uper Geniu$. They both have been dropping straight Miami Bass x Breaks heat for years now, up and down the East coast and at festivals like EDC Orlando, FSOB, and Culture's Candyland festival to name a few. 

JimiTheGenius and his low end sound, has quickly become a worldwide favorite in Bass music. And one can only ensure that his sound will continue to push the low end boundaries through out the world of music.

In 2003 I was at a friends house, partying,  when a friend of friends randomly invited over a group of people who came in with a bunch of gear and set up in the living room. I had no clue what was about to fill the room that blew my mind and set the hook deep in my soul that changed my future forever. It was my first experience with Breakbeats and it resonated with me instantly in a way I never to this day could comprehend. I sat by the booth watching for hours before I asked if I could try my hand at it and luckily for me, these guys(whom I still hold a friendship with today), who were extremely friendly and generous, handed me the headphones. This arbitrary house party takeover was the cherry popping to putting the needle on the record! From that point on Music was in every breath and I set out to get my own setup - pawnshop here I come 😂

Since then I have played many venues and events nationally and internationally. Sharing the booth with local talent to throwing down alongside celebrity headliners, from after parties that lasted for days to hole in the wall bars to big stages in front of a sea of bodies! 

Over the years my tastes in music has largely remained the same but has changed in dramatic fashion as I feel a DJ shouldn’t be a restricted to one sound.


I love to experiment with genres and play dynamically and prefer to sidestep popularity musically so as to earmark a standalone sound but with that being said, even open format is fun sometimes 🤪

With the typical obstacles many of my fellow wax heads encounter with copyright issues, the desire for sharing the random opportunities I decide to record just hasn’t existed for some time, but I'll be uploading some of my mixes again!

Enjoy. Comment. Share. 💃🏻🕺🏻😎
