The album, set for release on December 9, is a collection of songs performed by the teenage rock sensation throughout the series.
Mastin's performance of Celine Dion's All By Myself was panned by the judges towards the end of the competition, causing them to doubt whether he would make it to the grand final.
The album is dominated by rock classics and features Mastin's winner's single, Good Night, as well as Dream On, Closer To the Edge, Joker and the Thief, Paradise City, Break Even, She Will Be Loved, Always, Staying Alive, Ironic and I Kissed a Girl.
"It's nuts, I'm still in shock."
Mastin said he hoped to take his rock 'n' roll genre into the next generation.
"I want to go international so badly, I don't want to not use this oppotunity, and I will give 110 per cent to get as big as I can.
"I don't think there has been someone singing rock 'n' roll for awhile. It is missing so hopefully I can bring it back.''
Mastin said he would have a mentor to help him get through school as he forges a music career.
After the show, elated mentor Sebastian said he always knew his boy would take home the title.
Despite battling vocal strain, Mastin was the clear crowd favourite from the get go.
Mastin closed the grand finale singing his "winner's song'' Good Night to screaming fans.
Victorian runner-up Andrew Wishart, 41, was his charming self as he conceded the defeat.
The former nut salesman of Seaford graciously thanked mentor Natalie Bassingthwaighte and his much loved wife and children.
Perth contestant Johnny Ruffo was the first grand finalist to be ousted from the competition.
"We love us some Johnny Ruffo, your journey has been incredible," judge Mel B said.
In his speech a shell-shocked Ruffo thanked the wardrobe department, the crew, Sebastian, his mum, family and fans.
Chemical warfare victim turned X Factor singing sensation Emmanuel Kelly gave a moving rendition of The Beatles song Imagine, later accompanied by the top 12 to sing Let It Be.
The pop princess sang a sultry stripped back version of I Should Be So Lucky accompanied by an orchestra to a rapturous crowd.
