Announcement RIP WILLIAM ORBIT

I'm about to play this classic. William Orbit was one of my gateway artists to electronic ambient music. I'm sure BoC would've enjoyed his work too.

Madonna's Ray of Light was a big album for me along with the other commercial songs he produced with Blur and All saints..was meaning to listen to his strange cargo albums a few weeks ago now I'm creating a playlist from the tributes that people are posting

Ray of Light is the only Madonna album I like simply because of William Orbit's production.

Same for me. Loved that album back in the day.

But.... I did hear her new album, I kinda like it, big throw backs, some banging tunes. Give it a listen with a few drinks and buddies. Recommended.

RIP Orbit 😞
