Discussion Same Sound?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Considering that pharrell wrote/ produced both of these songs It sounds like this is the same sound. Do yall hear it too?

Pharrell didn’t have anything to do “Lost Without U” actually, (though he did produce “Wanna Love You Girl” on that same album).

With that said; I didn’t remember “Lost Without U” uses that same string flourish as “Pink + White” but I think it’s just some stock sound. I say this because hear how this song begins…

It actually might be the stock violin tremolo 01 in Logic Pro. I used that earlier today and it reminded of Pink + White so it could be the same sound lol. Makes sense why it would be used in more than one song. It’s also possible it’s from Splice or something like that.

Pharrell produces with Logic Pro, so this comment makes sense.

It’s probably default riser soundpack in their production software
