After 10 Years Away, Jimmy Scott Free Returns with Purpose on “Turn Back Time”

Jimmy Scott Free knows what it’s like to walk away from everything. The Southend-born artist spent his teens promoting club nights, built a sound system from scratch with his brother, and played alongside some serious names like Peter Hook and Groove Armada. By 2010, he’d even snagged Best Dance Track at the Exposure Music Awards. Then life happened. His brother left the band, the music industry wore him down, and Jimmy packed up for Spain. “I lost my heart for music,” he admits. For ten years, the studio stayed quiet.

“Some stories just need time to find their ending.”

“Turn Back Time” features vocals from the late house legend Kim English. This infectious EDM track doesn’t try to be clever, as it’s just honest about missing what you had and wishing you could go back. Kim’s contribution brings weight to the track, her voice carrying decades of dance music history while Jimmy’s production skills keep things warm and radio-friendly without losing that underground edge he’s known for.

Jimmy’s story reads like a reminder that sometimes you need to step away to come back stronger. When a friend convinced him to fire up the studio again last year, the music started flowing like it had been waiting. The collaboration with Kim English feels significant. It connects Jimmy’s return to house music’s roots while proving he belongs in that conversation. “Turn Back Time” showcases Jimmy simply making the music he’s been wanting to make, informed by experience and driven by rediscovered passion.

If this is what Jimmy Scott Free’s return looks like, we’re ready to hear what comes next!
