S2 Ep13: The Sync Report | Des Shaw

Des Shaw is currently working with Tony Defries on a podcast series that explores the history of Main Man and the groundbreaking work Defries did with Bowie, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Marianne Faithful and dozens of others in the '70s.

Des’s audio production work includes projects with Johnny Depp, Bono, Annie Lennox, Susan Sarandon, Antonio Banderas, Cameron Crowe, Tony Visconti, Deborah Harry, Laura Marling, Smokey Robinson and Sir Tim Rice.

Des has won international radio awards for music based projects that include The Sgt Pepper's 40th Anniversary, The Guitar That Changed the World, The History of Rolling Stone Magazine, Bruce Springsteen: Long Walk Home, The Beatles Final Concert among others.

His film credits include authorized profiles on John Lennon, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Queen, Mick Ronson, Bruce Springsteen, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and Live Aid.

Listen to Des talking about how learning to play the clarinet and to read music in his early years helped him gain an understanding of music production. Find out how Des went from working in commercial radio to producing TV specials and tour documentaries and how he met Sir Bob Geldof, with whom he co-founded Ten Alps - now called Zinc Media.

Plus we have an exclusive play of Mick Ronson’s guitar recording from the original studio recording of "Moonage Daydream" by David Bowie.

Hear from Milfredo about his early music life as part of the huge 90’s band EMF and how "Unbelievable" became such a huge hit.

Then stay tuned as we listen to Director Kevin Sharpley’s final three song choices for his indie movie Deadly Night Out. Plus we hear Christmas & Holiday sync submissions for The Sync Report 2022 Christmas special.
