      Musician, songwriter and sound engineering visionary Mikael Ramel released a couple of records under the 70s. Amongst them "Till Dej" and "Extravaganza". They feature several respected musicians. He also worked with the Swedish jazz/rock-group "Fläsket Brinner" (The Flesh is burning).

      Mikael Ramel's albums are little known outside of Sweden but are worth investigation. Till Dej (1972) was his strongest effort, featuring many of Ramel's friends from the Silence label, Fläsket Brinner and Life. This contains hippie-rock which veered off in a lot of different directions supplemented by witty Swedish lyrics and wacky studio effects (vari-speeding is used frequently)! It's much like an eclectic, stranger version of Pugh Rogefeldt's first album. Extravaganza (1974) was a similar album, basically made by the same bunch of musicians. Some tracks are similar to those on the studio part of Fläsket Brinner's second album. Others are better described as hippie-folk, featuring backwards guitar and other tape manipulations. It's another recommended album.
