Patrick Topping – Baby Daddy (Sperm Donor) [Trick]

Opening his 2025 schedule in style and setting the tone for yet another huge year ahead, Patrick Topping returns to his mighty Trick label for its landmark 100th release. Right from the off, ‘Baby Daddy (Sperm Donor)’ oozes with attitude, thanks to its anthemic and raw female vocal and amped-up house beats. Big drum fills and sweeping synth filters build up the track’s unmistakable mainstage energy, paving the way for beefed-up basslines and trippy FX to make this a surefire crowd-pleaser.

“It’s TRICK’s 100th release, and it only felt right to commemorate it with one of my own! I’ve wanted to do something with this vocal for years. If you’re an OG, you would have heard me play it in my sets back in 2014! I’ve always loved DJ Nasty—ever since I first heard Jamie Jones playing an edit of a different track of his in ‘09. I then brought this vocal back as an acapella in my sets last year, and everyone went mad, so I thought it was about time I made my own version!” – Patrick Topping.

Fresh off his ‘4 For The Floor’ smash EP late last year, which garnered widespread support from BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong to Jamie Jones, Geordie trailblazer Patrick Topping is back on home turf for his Trick imprint’s 100th release, ‘Baby Daddy (Sperm Donor)’. Patrick Topping and his Trick imprint have long been at the forefront of the electronic scene, giving rise to a vibrant array of breakout talents and diverse sounds like Ben Hemsley, Hannah Laing, and Schak, to name a few. With a long list of accolades to his name, including ‘Best British DJ’ at the 2022 DJ Mag awards and his upcoming third consecutive residency at Hï Ibiza, Topping is one of the most in-demand DJs in the world.
