Angel Tears is a fusion musical duo based in Tel Aviv composed of Sebastian Taylor, aka Shakta, and Momi Ochion.
Background
The duo is Momi Ochion (Israel) and Seb Taylor (UK). Ochion, whose roots lie in Israeli pop and world fusion music, is the melody man of the duo—the brain behind the composition of the album and a lot of the studio work. Sebastian James Taylor, who composes and performs much of the material, lives in London and is known for his work with the electronic groups Kaya Project, Shakta, and Digitalis. Other members include various vocalists.
Angel Tears' music appeals to fans of world electronica and new age spiritual. The duo use a wide variety of rhythms, from electronic beats to Bedouin dharbouka and other indigenous drums. The music ranges from clubby to tribal and all points in between. Asian and Middle Eastern vocals give a spiritual quality to the tunes, and instruments include Tibetan flutes, Indian sitar, Arabian violin, Middle Eastern horns, grand piano, electric guitar, and synthesizers.
The duo have tracks on many global fusion compilations, including Buddha Bar 2, Buddha Bar 8, and Lotus Lounge. Their music is also heard on popular TV shows including Sex And The City, Third Watch and The West Wing. Angel Tears have released four CDs on LoveCat Music (New York) and the artist's label MP Master Productions (Tel Aviv).[1]
