Currently, the music label features artists from around the world including artists from Korea, South Africa, India, and of course, the Philippines.
The music label's first project might be the release of apl.de.ap's first solo album, which features You Can Dream, his debut single featuring the voice of another Fil-Am international singer Billy Crawford. The album is said to be released sometime this August. And in an earlier interview with Asian Journal, he disclosed a collaboration with Filipino-American hip hop music producer Chad Hugo of The Neptunes to incorporate traditional Filipino instruments into his music.
