Magnus Uggla - Sommartid

It's about time for some Swedish exotica or balearica for that matter. Obviously all Swedes are well aware of herr Uggla as he's a well known figure and musical Joe Pesci character. But as most singers he's had his rebelious times, early in his career. And these are from that time.
I usually dig these out for the summer season as the title - 'Summertime' requests for that. . 
So here you go, to close the summer season; Magnus Uggla - "Sommartid" in the 12" remixed version and the later remix from 81' off the 'Godkänd pirat live' LP.
Hope you dig!

Richard Pinhas - L' Éthique

Here's a bit of an oddity that I came across not too long ago. And as impulsive as it can get, I was on the case. Apparently monsieur Pinhas is a kind of avant gard-ish producer from the late 70's and onwards. Somehow this track, and the flipside, appealed to me; sitting somewhere between early techno-ish electronics, italo and the contemporary bits that i'm into at the moment. 
Sure usable as a secret dj weapon for the more pretentious crowd.
So, from a french promo only release is Richard Pinhas - "L' Éthique".
Hope you dig!

Sarr Band - Magic Mandrake

Here's a bit of obscure, and dare I say cosmic(?), disco. From Sarr Band in "Magic Mandrake", who delivers all the sweet strings, funky horns and pumping bass you could ask for in complete disco banger. When looking for the 12" you should avoid the dodgy bootleg (as always!) that came out last year or so.
Hope you dig!
