Electrifying virtual popstar J786 prepares for global and digital domination with the release of his debut album on indie label IAG Entertainment.

(LOS ANGELES, CA) – May 13, 2010 – The future of Pop music has arrived courtesy of IAG Entertainment/Starbug Records with the launch of their International Pop Sensation J786. The Electronica-pop inspired singer-songwriter is steadily working on his debut album tentatively scheduled for a Summer 2010 release. With production from what seems like the year 2030 and Triple Grammy Award Winning engineer Joel Numa by his side, (Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Beyonce) J786 looks to dominate the music charts and dance floors with a new era of electronic music.

With artists such as Lady Gaga, Ke$ha and Black Eyed Peas dominating the airwaves, it’s hard for a new Pop act to breakthrough and standout among the crowd. Where musicians feel the need to imitate to be relative, songs like, “Working Hard” and “I Wanna Be Free” show that J786 is in a league of his own. The smash hit, “I Like You” hypnotizes listeners with saw-buzzing synths, Indian riffs, heart pounding kicks and memorable lyrics.

“We’re taking Pop music back to its roots where it was refreshing and fun,” states J786. “I can say with sheer confidence that we are ahead of the curve and starting a trend with the style of music we’re bringing.”

“We are excited to bring J786 to an International audience,” says IAG Entertainment Co-Founder, Dilip Sontakey. “He is reviving a lackluster genre with music that transcends the 21st Century. We are definitely going to shake things up a bit in the music industry.”

In addition to planning to take over the world by song, J786 plans on taking over humanitarian issues with his non-profit fund. 100% of J786’s proceeds will provide aid and relief for socio-economic issues and awareness through organizations such as the National Association of Free Clinics which has recently been endorsed by MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann. Growing up in a poverty stricken household, J786 witnessed his mother succumb to a fatal illness at an early age, due to lack of medical health insurance.

“I love music, but humanitarianism is my passion,” remarks J786. “If I can use music to give to those what was denied to my mother, then I will work day and night until it happens.”
The star plans to release singles, “I Like You” and “Working Hard” this month via iTunes and other online distribution networks. If his sound is any measurement of J786’s foregoing success, then the future is now.
