The Unseen Architect of Pop William Orbit's passing has left a profound impact on the music world.
Few producers have had as significant an influence on the sound of popular music in the 1990s and beyond, yet few are so frequently overlooked when discussing their own creative contributions.
Orbit's work with Madonna is a prime example. His collaboration with the singer on "Ray of Light" earned him three Grammys and cemented his status as one of the most sought after producers in the business.
