Anyone here a lawyer? or knows about music law?

I've have been asked to produce some songs for a new artists major label pop release this October.

I've been offered a contract which specifes a sum of money plus a percentage from; Syncs (tv, film, ads etc..), radioplay, live performance and so on.

But...

I need a lawyer who specializes in media to check over the contract. I have been put in touch with some good people but they are expensive.

Anyone know one or can help?

Thanks.

Friend of mine is 'H two O' and he made pence out of that 'whats in gonna be' crap, manager f*cked it up. Get someone decent, if its likely to number 1, it might be worth it.

I heard that Tynan made 'There's no one quite like Grandma'

I ain't no mother fucking lawyer, but I can outline the basics for you.

First you must prove that you have a non-cracked version of Autotune, before we can proceed.

tynan - the theme tune to super gran

I have made a frog crazy (by confusing it with legalese and magic tricks) but had nothing to do with the ring-tone phenomena of the same name.

I heard that Tynan composed the theme tune to Songs of Praise.

The latest Autotune is iLok dongle protected, it's not been cracked (yet). And the old one is not for intel Mac.

Let's proceed.

Test passed.

Music lawyers are scumbags, Alasdair George was my old lawyer... He was Blur's representative too... Only lawyer I ever met that I felt I could trust...
EDIT: Just read his CV and it seems he's moved on a bit since then... Oh well... blushes

...in tynan we trust.

Writer, producer for a "new" artist from Sweden.

I'll also record their vocals here as place holder, with the final vocals and mastering being done by a big studio.

We (Jeepster Records) used to use these guys: http://www.sgdlaw.com/

They're not cheap, but the difference between a cheap lawyer and a good lawyer seems to be enormous.
