簡介。。。。。。
Just half a year since “Allt hänger samman” and the fourth album from Sagor & Swing, “Orgelplaneten” (“The Organ Planet”) is here. The energy has been turned up quite a bit. This more energetic side of their sound has been showing a whole lot during their concerts, but this is the first time that it has been captured on record, as a document of how the duo have sounded live. It also stands out from their three earlier records by adding Moog and accordion to the usual setup of organ and drums.

A more playful and joyous atmosphere runs through the record. Many of the songs e.g. “8-bitarspolskan” and “Äventyr i Alperna” have an electronic sound reminiscing of synthesizer experiments á la Jean Jacques Perrey. “Distro” and “Postmodernism” are both full-on instrumental pop songs while “Smedjebacken by night” echoes of lazy hotdog-stand reggae. But the fairyland-music and Sagor & Swing’s unmistakable touch is still there, just below the surface.

This album marks the end for Sagor & Swing. Echoes and shadows will certainly turn up in the future, but “Orgelplaneten” is the final record from the group as we remember them.

我的碎碎唸。。。。。。評價指數:7.5/10
在這張唱片之後,Sagor & Swing宣告解散,每一支很棒的音樂團體解散,我都會感到很難過很遺憾。這張專輯與Sagor & Swing之前的發行相比,明顯地強烈很多,跳動很多,也吵鬧很多。不知兩人是否在這時產生了某些摩擦,還是什麽原因,這張專輯像是某种衝突、或者是某种爆發,充滿著力量,與之前的風格迥然不同,卻與Eric Malmberg的solo album有些相像。兩人以這樣一張富有動感的專輯結束了他們3年來的合作。
