The project was recorded on the famous Italo-Disco-label Memory Records, headed by producer Alessandro Zanni. All compositions of "Baby's Gang" were characterized by a significantly synthesized sound and a clear dance rhythm, which was a cross between Italo-Disco and Electro-Pop. Most of the songs were performed by the children's choir, the female voice in the compositions belonged to Denise Bonfanti.
