William Orbit, the production genius behind Madonna’s Ray Of Light, died last month, it has today been confirmed. We were lucky enough to speak with him in 2022, as he plotted a return to the fray.
A seasoned veteran of the studio, Orbit produced and collaborated with some of the biggest names in pop, including Madonna, U2, Blur, Pink, Robbie and Britney to name but a very few.
He won countless awards and sold millions of records, while also becoming a leading figure in the electronic music scene with his incredible Strange Cargo series and the classical reinterpretation album Pieces In A Modern Style.
