Per a press release, OTHERtone will feature interviews with people from the worlds of music, tech, business, art, and fashion, with the aim of offering “a glimpse into the minds of our culture’s unicorns — how they think about life, art, and everything in between.” The initial slate of guests includes Zendaya, Rosalía, Clairo, Tristan Harris, and Jaron Lanier, while there were also be some unique quest pairings, like Malcolm Gladwell and Kenya Barris, and Eric Andre and Harmony Korine.

 

 

In a new trailer for the series, Pharrell explained his hope for OTHERtone, saying, “I want to lift people and I want people to be inspired by people who inspire us.”

Vener added in a statement, “We’re looking forward to curating subjects and people in a way that lets the audience be a fly on the wall listening to conversations between artists that most people don’t get to hear.”
