Description:
Breath Of The Heart, from Krishna Das, is the latest chapter in the unfolding story that began 25 years ago in India at the foothills of the Himalayan mountains amongst the kirtan (chant) assembly of the Indian holy men. Breath Of The Heart was recorded in the heart of Los Angeles at the legendary Cello studios under the auspices of producer extraordinaire Rick Rubin. With a choir of 50 people in tandem with an orchestra of ten top Eastern and Western musicians Krishna Das and his Kosmic Kirtan Posse create a magical mystery tour back to the ancient motherland: India. The result is Krishna Das' most transcendent recording to date. It captures and transmits the moment where both time and space cease to exist and we are left with the pure essence of the primordial sound - the Breath Of The Heart.
Biography:
Krishna Das spent his early musical years leaning towards jazz, blues and rock and roll. When his spiritual path took him to India he was naturally attracted to the spiritual aspects of the Indian culture. Further travels that took him to the Far East and Africa continued to influence his musical perceptions adding new flavors and broadening his horizons. He has absorbed these influences, in particular Indian devotional music, and has translated this music for a western audience.
In 1990 Krishna Das founded Triloka Records. Early travels became the foundation for his work as a producer, musician, singer and songwriter and as head of A&R for the label, Krishna Das plays a pivotal role in establishing Trlloka Records as a vehicle to enable artists to offer their indigenous traditions to a new global audience.
“When I was living in India I heard much kirtan (chanting). I found that I could listen to the singers and sense the depth of their connection with God through the purity of their devotional singing. Krishna Das is an example of someone whose heartsongs open the channels to God.” - Ram Dass
