  • Exploring Music Trailer
    Oct 24 2019

    The SyncLodge Podcast Series Exploring Music Trailer, to give you a bit of a taste of what is to come when we launch Series 1 on November 4th at 5am UK Time.

    SyncLodge podcast Exploring Music, where we explore the obscure, where we delve in deep, into the vast vaults of great, but maybe, not so known, music.

    For each episode we will bring together two music industry professionals, to discuss in depth an area of music they are passionate about and have an intimate knowledge of.

    My name is Lionel Lodge and I will be your reluctant moderator, preferring to let my guests do most of the talking.

  • Exploring Music E 06 Left Field Electro part 01 of 02 with Adam Bushell and Adam Lieber
    Nov 4 2019

    In this conversation Adam Bushell and Adam Lieber discuss the original artists of the electronic music known as Left Field and the long lasting effects they have had on popular music.

    Click to listen to a Spotify playlist with all the music mentioned in the 2 parts of this conversation, all listed in order of mention.

    Adam Bushell, is a freelance music supervisor who has experienced many sides of the sync licensing industry. Starting out as a music supervisor at Soundtree Music, then working in the synchronisation department at publisher Spirit Music Group. And most recently as founder and Creative Director of Tin Drum Music, where he oversaw the music for the Engine Group.

    And joining Adam is our second Adam. Adam Lieber who has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Cape Town where he DJed and threw large scale events hosting the likes of ninja tune and other artists. He studied sound design, performance and audio/visual production at Fabrica and has a MA in communication art and design from the Royal College of Art. Adam Lieber, for over 11 years, has been running his own company Shtik, which provides bespoke sonic solutions and composition for advertising, film, television, brand identity, digital and interactive experiential media. Plus, over the same time, Adam has been the Director of Schmutz Films which is a boutique production studio specialising in music, fashion, the arts & of course food, because apparently, they love to eat, feed folks and believe food is the way forward! Plus, and I am serious here, Adam is a serial-fermentor teaching the magic of fermentation in his spare time. But before all this Adam was at Soundtree Music as a freelance music supervisor, composer and sound designer for 6 years.
