Jeff D'Agostino

D'Agostino then wrote and recorded new songs independently, which allowed him to maintain creative control and ownership of his recordings. He re-branded his artist name as Oekiin and showed Tim James at Rock Mafia his new project. James then played one of Oekiin's songs to EDM DJ/Producer Illenium (Nicholas D. Miller), whom he was working with at the time. Illenium loved Oekiin's song "All Together," and asked to add some production to the track. Oekiin's song "All Together" was scheduled for release August 16, 2019 on Illenium's third album, "Ascend," distributed by label Astralwerks/Capitol Records/Universal Music Group.

Oekiin's EPs New Design and Rebel Minds are scheduled to be released in the summer of 2019 through his personal label, Dilemma Music Inc. Oekiin's music is a mix of electronic rock, dubstep, and EDM.

Rock Mafia Records presented D'Agostino's music to Interscope-Geffen-A&M Chairman/CEO Jimmy Iovine. Timbaland accompanied Iovine to the meeting and loved what he heard. He asked to be featured on a song with D'Agostino, which he later recorded. After the meeting, Iovine offered D'Agostino a deal with Interscope Records. D'Agostino signed and recorded one album with the company. Timbaland and Jimmy Iovine left their roles at Interscope and the album was never released. The deal was terminated in 2017.
