Notes on the label:
As indicated by the FPY stamper prefix, some titles are clearly designated as Phillip Yap productions. Apart from these titles, some label credits also give production credit to Phillip, with the balance assumed to be Justin Yap. The accuracy of these Top Deck production credits demands more research before they can be considered accurate or confirmed. Additions or corrections are always invited and encouraged.
