KICK OFF THE NEW YEAR RIGHT WITH AN EPIC ADVENTURE OF FAST TRAXX FROM STRATEGY
MOTOR is pleased to host our first mix of 2018 from the prolific, multi-faceted Portland-based producer/dj, Strategy. Our guest starts things off with a twisted acid ripper from his label Community Library, and we’re plunged headfirst into a 2 hour plus lesson that seamlessly traverses breakbeat, electro, techno, deep house, dubstep, and garage.
Paul Dickow’s Strategy moniker needs no introduction. With releases going back to 2003 across a diverse set of styles from ambient to house, techno to dub, experimental and beyond, his work has landed on labels such as Kranky, Further, Peak Oil, 100% Silk, Field Hymns, ZamZam, and his own Community Library. MOTOR was lucky to host Strategy for a live set back in 2015, and we’re psyched to release his epic mix to welcome the new year.
Strategy comes to Seattle January 19th for Research at Kremwerk with Volvox and MOTOR alum AOS.
