ZEDD – LUCKY

GRAMMY Award-winning artist Zedd joins forces with genre-bending phenomenon Remi Wolf for highly anticipated new collaboration “Lucky.” Today’s release marks the latest single from the multi-platinum producer’s forthcoming third studio album Telos (out August 30) – his first LP in nearly a decade. Stream “Lucky” HERE via Interscope Records.

Infectious and upbeat, “Lucky” spotlights Remi’s captivating vocals over Zedd’s dynamic production, joining forces for an undeniable summer hit. “Lucky” was first teased last Friday during Zedd’s headlining Perry’s Stage Lollapalooza Festival set when he invited Remi to join him on stage and play the track live for the first time. The smash performance also featured a surprise appearance from Bea Miller, playing recent collaboration “Out of Time”. Keeping in line with his album announcement during EDC, Zedd’s Lollapalooza set ended in spectacular fashion with a 300 drone show above the finale spelling out 1 (800) 602 – ZEDD, a hotline containing a 2-minute minimax snippet from the album.

“Lucky couldn’t have happened without Remi” says Zedd on the track. “Five years ago she wrote the first verse and chorus, but had no intention of staying on it. Earlier this year, I invited Remi to the studio to play her the Telos Album which changed her mind and she decided to stay on the song. We got to work on the second verse and it completely brought the song to life – no one else could sing it as amazing as she does.”

 “Lucky” arrives on the heels of “Out of Time” – which released earlier this summer and served as the first single from upcoming album Telos. The third official studio album from Zedd, the project showcases a more authentic side of the multi-platinum hitmaker, meant to be a ‘profound listening experience’ from start to finish.

Recently, Zedd also announced his upcoming North American tour, kicking off with the 2-night return of his famed Zedd in the Park festival taking place on September 6 and 7 in Los Angeles – presented by Insomniac. With only ticket pre-sales, massive demand across the entire North American run prompted numerous sold-out shows and additional dates added for Zedd in the Park in Los Angeles, as well as New York, Boston, Dallas, Seattle, and San Francisco – with Zedd playing four consecutive nights at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. The tour will conclude on October 15 at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado.

Empowering Businesses with Expert Corporate Legal Guidance

Let’s face it: in the business world, walking the legal tightrope is no child’s play. Whether launching a startup or managing a multinational corporation, navigating the intricate maze of laws and regulations can make or break your success. That’s where expert corporate legal guidance comes into play.

In this article, we’re diving into how seasoned legal consultants can be your secret weapon, safeguarding your business operations and giving you that competitive edge. 

Stick around as we uncover the nitty-gritty of what these legal wizards do and why their role is crucial for aligning your business goals with the letter of the law.

Understanding the Role of Legal Consultants

So, what exactly does a legal consultant do? Imagine them as the guardian angels of your business world. 

These pros specialize in dissecting complex legal jargon and transforming it into strategic advice that aligns perfectly with your business goals. They’ve got your back from sizing up legal risks that lurk around the corner to ironing out your business transactions and drafting watertight contracts.

But it’s not just about dodging legal bullets. Legal consultants also provide valuable insights on regulatory changes, keeping you ahead of the curve and compliant, no matter how the legal landscape shifts. 

Their arsenal isn’t just loaded with deep legal knowledge; they’re also ace communicators, sharp critical thinkers, and negotiation ninjas. 

Whether it’s smoothing out a deal or navigating a dispute, these skills ensure your business survives and thrives in the competitive market.

Types of Legal Consulting Services

Regarding legal consulting, not all providers are cut from the same cloth. 

On the one hand, you have independent legal consultants—the seasoned pros who dive deep into your legal problems. They offer a highly personalized touch, crafting bespoke solutions that tackle your business’s unique challenges. 

Think of them as the custom tailors of legal advice, perfect for when you need a one-of-a-kind solution that fits your business like a glove.

On the flip side are Alternative Legal Service Providers (ALSPs). These outfits bring a more holistic approach. They operate with teams integrating various legal disciplines, providing comprehensive solutions spanning the entire legal spectrum. 

ALSPs are like your one-stop shops for legal services, where collaboration and broad expertise combine to handle complex, multifaceted issues a business might face.

Benefits of Engaging Legal Consultants

Now, let’s talk perks—why should you even consider bringing legal consultants into your corner? 

First off, cost efficiency. Hiring full-time legal staff is a significant investment. Whether independent or part of an ALSP, legal consultants let you tap into expert legal advice without the hefty overhead. You get top-tier legal brains on your payroll only when needed, which is a smarter way to manage your budget.

Another game changer is the flexibility these consultants offer. Tailored engagement and payment structures mean you can sculpt the legal services to mesh seamlessly with your business needs. Need a consultant for a one-off project? No problem. Looking for ongoing advice? They can accommodate that, too. 

This flexibility is crucial for businesses navigating the fast-paced market dynamics.

Lastly, the specialized legal knowledge consultants bring to the table is invaluable, especially for knotty business matters requiring more than just a basic legal understanding. 

Whether it’s navigating international trade laws, cybersecurity regulations, or intellectual property rights, these experts have the niche skills that could be pivotal in steering your business clear of legal pitfalls and setting the stage for robust growth.

Practical Applications of Legal Guidance in Business Operations

Navigating the business world without legal guidance is like sailing the high seas without a compass—risky and potentially costly. Legal advisors are integral across all stages of a business’s lifecycle. 

From the moment you draft your startup’s first business plan to complex processes like mergers and acquisitions, these experts ensure that every corporate transaction is up and up.

During the startup phase, legal advisors help lay a strong foundation. They ensure that your new enterprise stands on solid legal ground, from choosing the right business structure to securing initial funding agreements—all tailored to maximize protection and future growth. 

As the business evolves, these consultants guide you through expansions, partnerships, and major corporate transformations like mergers and acquisitions.

But their expertise doesn’t stop at transactions. In today’s fast-paced market, safeguarding your intellectual property (IP) is non-negotiable. Legal consultants play a critical role here, helping you protect your innovations from potential infringement. 

Additionally, managing corporate governance is another area where their impact is profound. They help ensure that your company meets legal requirements and operates with best practices, keeping your business transparent and accountable to stakeholders.

Real-world Applications

In real-world scenarios, legal consultants have played crucial roles in navigating complex challenges and driving business success. A notable example is Tesla, which faced numerous legal battles in its early years, especially concerning its intellectual property (IP). Tesla’s legal team, along with external consultants, helped the company secure vital patents, protect its proprietary technology, and fend off lawsuits. This legal strategy was instrumental in enabling Tesla to maintain its competitive edge in the electric vehicle market, ensuring the company could focus on innovation rather than prolonged legal disputes.

Another significant example is the merger between Disney and 21st Century Fox. This $71.3 billion acquisition was one of the largest media mergers in history, and legal consultants were key in navigating the complex regulatory landscape. They conducted rigorous due diligence, helped negotiate terms, and ensured compliance with antitrust laws across multiple jurisdictions. The successful merger expanded Disney’s portfolio, allowing it to dominate the entertainment industry further and maximize its content offerings.

These cases underline the tangible benefits of engaging legal consultants: enhanced compliance, effective risk management, and successful negotiations. Such legal guidance not only protects businesses from potential legal pitfalls but also strategically positions them for long-term success and stability.

For businesses looking for tailored legal advice, particularly in navigating complex international laws or corporate transactions, partnerships with specialized firms can be invaluable. For instance, Sobirovs Law Firm offers a range of services that cater specifically to corporate clients, ensuring compliance and strategic legal positioning in international business landscapes. Their expertise can provide the legal backbone for complex operations and growth initiatives.

Choosing the Right Legal Consultant for Your Business

Selecting the right legal consultant isn’t just about finding legal expertise—it’s about finding the right fit for your unique business needs. To start, consider a consultant’s industry-specific expertise. The legal landscape varies widely across sectors, so a consultant with a successful track record in your industry can be a game changer. They’ll bring legal know-how and nuanced insights that can prevent common pitfalls.

Next, evaluate their past success stories. These are proof of their ability to effectively solve complex legal issues and should align with your business’s challenges. Finally, the flexibility of their service model should be considered. Your chosen consultant should offer a service structure that aligns with your business objectives, whether on-demand advice for quick decisions or a more integrated partnership for ongoing strategic guidance.

Conclusion

Throughout this exploration of expert corporate legal guidance, one thing is clear: the right legal expertise is not just supportive—it’s transformative for businesses. Engaging with skilled legal consultants can significantly enhance strategic decision-making and boost operational resilience. As the business landscape evolves, proactive legal engagement remains crucial in safeguarding and empowering your business endeavors. Whether mitigating risks or seizing new opportunities, expert legal guidance is indispensable in navigating the complex world of corporate law.

The Last Ballad of Damrod

ROADRUNNER RECORDS RELEASES “THE LAST BALLAD OF DAMROD” FROM THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RINGS OF POWER SEASON TWO SOUNDTRACK

LISTEN HERE | WATCH HERE

Composed by Emmy® Award-Winner Bear McCreary

Featuring Vocals from Meshuggah Frontman Jens Kidman

Maintaining its position at the forefront of culture and heavy music, Roadrunner Records has unveiled “The Last Ballad of Damrod,” the first original song from the upcoming The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Season Two: Amazon Original Soundtrack). Composed by Emmy® Award winner Bear McCreary, and featuring vocals from Jens Kidman, frontman of Grammy-nominated Swedish extreme-metal band Meshuggah, the song will appear in the highly anticipated second season of the Amazon Original series.

“The Last Ballad of Damrod” (feat. Jens Kidman) is available to stream and download beginning today via Roadrunner Records HERE. Watch a lyric video for the song HERE.

Says McCreary: “When I first glimpsed Damrod, the murderous troll in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Two, I knew immediately I had to call Jens Kidman. The aggressive frontman of Meshuggah, Jens put a searing brand on ‘The Last Ballad of Damrod’ with his blistering vocal performance. I am exhilarated to team up with Roadrunner Records, home to some of my favorite bands of all time like Gojira and Slipknot, to bring our song to the world. My collaboration with Jens, alongside virtuoso drummer Gene Hoglan, on ‘The Last Ballad of Damrod,’ offers an introduction to my exploration of the darker recesses of J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium and sets the stage for the rest of the sweeping score to come.”

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Season Two: Amazon Original Series Soundtrack) will be released worldwide on August 23rd, tied to the highly-anticipated return of the series later this month. Available across all music streaming services, the full episodic score for the second season of the Amazon Original series was composed by Emmy® Award-winner Bear McCreary (Da Vinci’s Demons). Following each episode, Amazon Music will release a weekly soundtrack album containing the score for that episode, only available on Amazon Music.

​​For the epic first season of Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, composer Bear McCreary wove a tapestry of symphonic orchestra, bombastic percussion, and folk instruments from across Europe and North Africa, combined with solo vocalists and choirs singing in the iconic languages of J.R.R. Tolkien’s books. For the gripping second season, McCreary has built atop that foundation with dynamic new themes and colors, including Bulgarian women’s choir and gadulka for Rhûn, children’s choir for the pastoral city of Eregion, Hardanger fiddle for new character Estrid, and deathly whispers for the terrifying Barrow-wights.

​​Season Two of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power will debut on Prime Video on August 29, 2024, in more than 240 countries and territories around the world, and in multiple languages.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth’s history. This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness.

The first season of The Rings of Power has been an unprecedented success, viewed by more than 100 million people worldwide, with more than 32 billion minutes streamed. The highly anticipated series attracted more than 25 million global viewers on its first day, marking the biggest premiere in the history of Prime Video, and also debuted as the No. 1 show on Nielsen’s overall streaming chart in its opening weekend. The show has driven more Prime sign-ups worldwide during its launch window than any other previous content to date. The season finale also created a global cultural moment, with multiple series-themed hashtags, including #TheRingsofPower and others, trending in 27 countries across Twitter for over 426 cumulative hours throughout the weekend.

The second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is produced by showrunners and executive producers J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay. They are joined by executive producers Lindsey Weber, Callum Greene, Justin Doble, Jason Cahill, and Gennifer Hutchison, along with co-executive producer and director Charlotte Brändström, producers Kate Hazell and Helen Shang, and co-producers Clare Buxton, Andrew Lee, Glenise Mullins, and Matthew Penry-Davey. Additional Season Two directors include Sanaa Hamri and Louise Hooper.

Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn

Zeitz MOCAA presents The Other Side of Now, a solo exhibition of film and sculpture by Vietnamese American artist Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn which opens at the museum on Thursday, 22 August at 6 pm. A special members’ preview will take place at 5 pm ahead of the public opening. This exhibition explores the transnational entanglements created by colonisation and war. Attending to the erased voices of Vietnamese, Senegalese, and Moroccan history, it proposes a space for communal healing and remembrance. 

Nguyễn’s films move along spectrums of fact and fiction, past and present, memory and forgetting. He uses the power of storytelling to create speculative visions of painful histories. He opens a doorway of empathy and healing for both the subject and viewer. In letters to a lost family member, imagined conversations between generations, or reincarnation as a means of healing from physical trauma, his work looks at hard pasts to realise healed futures. Read More
