Kisses of Kriya is a remarkable solo piano album featuring melodies from Paramahansa Yogananda's Cosmic Chants
collection along with spiritually uplifting arrangements composed by Erin
Rametta. Kisses of Kriya has an organic feel to it and portrays a
folkier, more intimate recording mixed with impressionistic harmonic structures
inspired by Debussy and Ravel. Erin's
unique and playful style will uplift your spirits and induce a mood of
youthful innocence.
We love this special recording by Erin. Each composition is sophisticated and yet delightfully simple. Her music is classy and sublime. We can't stop playing it!
The album was recorded in the bay area of San
Francisco with the help of Erik Ian Walker, a long
time composer/engineer who is well-known in the modern dance world for his
exquisite soundtracks particularly evident on "The Kisses" album.

Note
from Supreme Swan: Erin is too modest to mention in her bio that she is also a
model - you can see some of her wonderful work in our jewelry, scarves and shawls pages. She
is one of those very rare individuals who can do everything, do it very well,
and not make a big deal of it!
