In 2006 Top Billin made themselves a household name in Helsinki with bootleg remixes, hot mixtapes and a monthly club night that was packed every single time from the beginning. Then came the first 12” ep and after that nothing was the same. That record became the number one selling item at Turntablelab.com, and favored by club dj’s and party music lovers around the world and since then all Top Billin releases have been high sellers in several good record stores. The now classic first ep has later followed with more top selling EP’s and a split 12” with another hot finnish label, New Judas. Beside running the record label, Top Billin has become a well oiled party machine, rocking shows around the globe from Paris to Berlin and Moscow to New York, with the likes of Justice, Sany Pitbull, Feadz and countless other club favorites. In 2008 they even made their first big tour supporting M.I.A. in Canada Their hometown club night in Helsinki has hosted international guests like Scottie B, DJ Sega, DJ Ayres, Tittsworth, Cosmo Baker, Paul Devro and many others. Beside being club goers favorites, Top Billin have made fans among big name dj’s like Sinden, Tittsworth, Scottie B, Diplo, The Rub DJ’s, Trouble & Bass, Laidback Luke and countless more. They’ve done remixes for artists and labels like Unruly, Trouble & Bass and Stretch Armstrong’s Plant Music. Beside their own label, Top Billin has also produced tracks for T&A Records’ releases. If you like your club music energetic, loud and nasty and you haven’t checked out Top Billin yet – get on with the friggin’ program already. Or, as R. Kelly puts it, “Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.”.

It’s great to see so many artists and events doing their bit to help our Japanese brothers in their time of need… millions of people still without electricity, food or clean water, nuclear meltdowns… it’s truly difficult to comprehend.
That’s why Top Billin have decided to release this compilation (originally compiled for sale in the Japanese market) in return for donations to the Japanese Red Cross. Containing recent remixes and productions from the Top Billin catalogue as well as several previously unreleased gems, the whole thing is available for download in exchange for a minimum contribution of €1 (you’re welcome to donate more of course).

Mad Decent enlist the services of two Faze 2 artists for their latest EP release which sees a bunch of their favourite upcoming producers including Faze 2’s Finnish friends Top Billin alongside dubstep man of the moment Jack Sparrow.
In the words of Mad Decent, “Top Billin turns it (Smasher) into a dark club banger with a brand new hook” while Jack Sparrow comes up with a typically distinct take on the original version of his chosen track “Sacrifice” – in the words of Mad Decent again: “Jack Sparrow removes the sharp edges from the EP’s harshest tracks… using the Badness vocals perfectly and turning a smooth club track”.
