Dutch DJ Tiesto and Canadian singer-songwriter Tate McRae have teamed up for a new single, 10:35, and the music video was shot at Dubai's ultra-luxury resort Atlantis The Royal.

The song, which was released on Thursday, made its broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop and Paramount Times Square Billboards. In the video, the two acts perform in various locations around the Atlantis The Royal, with the Dubai skyline in the background.

"I’m very excited to be partnering with this iconic new property," said Tiesto. "Tate and I wanted to create a song that captured the energy of an experience at Atlantis The Royal, and I’m proud to say the feeling of 10:35 and this property are both infectious. So excited for the world to finally hear it."

In the video, McRae can be seen posing in the lobby, with Droplets in the background, an 11.5-metre-tall metal figure depicting drops of water made from 5.5 tonnes of stainless steel. She also performs in an outdoor pool and with the hotel towering behind her.

"I’m happy to announce I’m doing a partnership with the Atlantis The Royal property in Dubai with Tiesto," said McRae. "It’s always exciting to branch out and work with different brands and artists. The music video is unlike anything I’ve seen before, and the hotel is just unreal."

How to wear a kandura

Dos

  • Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion 
  • Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
  • Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work 
  • Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester

Don’ts 

  • Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal 
  • Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying

How will Gen Alpha invest?

Mark Chahwan, co-founder and chief executive of robo-advisory firm Sarwa, forecasts that Generation Alpha (born between 2010 and 2024) will start investing in their teenage years and therefore benefit from compound interest.

“Technology and education should be the main drivers to make this happen, whether it’s investing in a few clicks or their schools/parents stepping up their personal finance education skills,” he adds.

Mr Chahwan says younger generations have a higher capacity to take on risk, but for some their appetite can be more cautious because they are investing for the first time. “Schools still do not teach personal finance and stock market investing, so a lot of the learning journey can feel daunting and intimidating,” he says.

He advises millennials to not always start with an aggressive portfolio even if they can afford to take risks. “We always advise to work your way up to your risk capacity, that way you experience volatility and get used to it. Given the higher risk capacity for the younger generations, stocks are a favourite,” says Mr Chahwan.

Highlighting the role technology has played in encouraging millennials and Gen Z to invest, he says: “They were often excluded, but with lower account minimums ... a customer with $1,000 [Dh3,672] in their account has their money working for them just as hard as the portfolio of a high get-worth individual.”
