Kaya Project
British electronic music project
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kaya Project is a British electronic music project launched by Sebastian James Taylor (Angel Tears, Shakta, Digitalis, Hibernation) in the early 2000s, upon meeting Kazakh singer Irina Mikhailova,[1][2] who subsequently sang on the debut Kaya Project album, Walking Through, published in 2004, as well as numerous subsequent releases. The second Kaya Project album, Elixir, features contributions from Turkish musician Omer Faruk Tekbilek and British Indian dhol drummer Johnny Kalsi.[3] In 2010, the English singer Shahin Badar sang on the Kaya Project track "Ummah Oum", from the fourth album, Desert Phase.[2] Tekbilek returned to sing on the 2016 Kaya Project track "Crossing the River", with a remix by Anglo-Italian musician Gaudi.[2]
