Miki Peled was one of the most prominent figures in the Israeli entertainment industry for decades, producing the Hasidic Song Festival and "Kazablan," and managing artists including Shlomo Artzi and Yehoram Gaon.

The groundbreaking British musician who produced the biggest hits for Madonna, Britney Spears, and Blur passed away at his home, with his family refusing to disclose the exact cause of death.

The family of Orbit, who worked with Madonna, U2, and others, released the announcement of his death; the cause of death was not disclosed. "We will miss him dearly, as will so many whose lives were touched by his music, his friendship, and his kindness," they wrote.
