He continued to release music on his Bandcamp page as an independent musician. He also remixed songs by Katy Perry, Safari Ducks and Black Sabbath.

Kallio made his first game soundtrack for a game under development made by Vlambeer called Luftrausers in 2011. The soundtrack consisted of quirky chiptune sounds and it only had one single song, along with a remix by Jukio himself and an extended version of the original. The soundtrack was continued in 2014 and development for the game was complete. Kallio would later on create soundtracks for various other titles made by Vlambeer.
In 2013, he made the soundtrack for a demo version of Nuclear Throne called Wasteland Kings, both games made by Vlambeer. In 2016, the game would later on become the full game, Nuclear Throne.
Kallio continued making music for other small indie games such as The End (2014), Choice Chamber (2015), Evil Factory (2017) and other various titles.
In 2018, Kallio wrote the music for Minit, an adventure based RPG made by co-founder of Vlambeer, Jan Willem Nijman. The soundtrack would become one of Jukio's most popular soundtracks (at the time of releasing) and the game was nominated for several awards.
In June 2019, Jukio released his debut album, Kuabee Music. It was the first full-length studio album that he released. The album consisted of bright, vocal-driven house music along with many other styles and genres. The album runs for 46 minutes and has 9 tracks.
Following the release of Kuabee Music, In July 2020 Kallio collaborated with Daniel Hagstrom to create the soundtrack to Fall Guys, a game made by Mediatonic. The two would continue to write different pieces of music for each season of the game. In the 2020 Playstation Blog the game won Best Independent Game - Platinum and Best Multiplayer Game - Gold. The game received "generally favourable" reviews, according to review aggregator website Metacritic. During Season 3 free for all in Spring 2023, Jukio stopped composing soundtracks for the game, leaving Daniel Hagstrom alone.
In September 2020, after the release of the Fall Guys soundtrack, Kallio released his second studio album Kuvankaunis. The album consists of acoustic sounds mixed with synthesizers and ambient-ish soundscapes along with realistic vocals. The album runs for 39 minutes and has 13 tracks.
