HILLS OF KATMANDU (PATRICK COWLEY & JURGEN KOPPERS MIXES) by TANTRA

Restored reissue of this progressive slice of Italo Disco - with its ‘Moroder-on-steroids bassline’, menacing female vocal and warbling synths taking you on a trippy disco journey.

Originally available on vinyl in 1982 on San Francisco’s “Hot Classics” DJ Service”, Patrick Cowley’s “Original Underground Mix” is a work of pure genius that unleashes his skills on the synths and somehow manages to surpass the original.
On the flip-side, there is the original 16’20 minutes version of the Jurgen Koppers mix, an extended re-edit of the original Celso Valli version, which appeared first on Disconet in 1979, and in the following year on the US (Importe/12) release of the “Tantra – the Double Album” longplayer.
