mothership transmission #6… After the genre-smashing, seven vinyl pressings deep (and counting) success of Viktor Casanova, there is no way that the Italoboyz could possibly top their first appearance on Mothership, right? Wrong! We are happy to report that they have created an organic techno masterpiece in ‘Bahia,’ enlisting the help of one of the greatest jazz musicians of our time – John Coltrane.

You’ve never heard the master like this – the Italoboyz have molded the original ‘Bahia’ into a stomping peak timer as only they can. Their trademark monster kick underpins stuttering jazz kits, a playful piano line, and an insistent, soulful tenor sax sample from the man himself (cleared after four months of intense negotiations). Bahia’s intro leads into one of the most surprising and euphoric breaks you will ever hear. There are two versions to choose from – the Party Swing mix gets right to the point, grabbing you by the scruff of your neck. The flip side’s Mucho Lungo mix is perfect for those late night warehouse moments, taking its time to deliver the sweet payoff.
