They say that ‘real recognize real,’ which is best validated when two parties come from opposing backgrounds. While Pharrell Williams was busy crafting the pop sounds that would become the soundtrack to our adolescence through the ’90s and ’00s (and still to this day), Canadian producer Daniel Lanois was creating a lush, atmospheric aesthetic in another realm.
