.

This new record label was based out of
New York City
. Most of the artists signed to the label are successful overseas and European acts. American acts like Rockell and
Reina
, however, had Billboard Hot 100 hits. Spanish DJ Sammy gave Robbins its first top 10 Hot 100 hit in 2002 with "Heaven" which featured Dutch recording artist
Do
. The Belgian group D.H.T.'s 'Listen To Your Heart' also made #8 on the U.S. charts, and #1 on Pop Airplay. Two other Belgian acts - Ian Van Dahl ("Castles in the Sky") and Lasgo ("Something" & "Alone") also made the U.S. Billboard charts. Robbins was able to attract further foreign talent as Germany's
Cascada
following this, which helped the company gain more success when Everytime We Touch,
What Hurts the Most
, and most recently
Evacuate the Dancefloor
became mainstream pop hits as well.
