Future Shock by Strategy
Released in late 2018 by Nite Owl Diner! From the label's PR team:
"Portland's STRATEGY is one of the most versatile producers in the game, and a 20+ year certified elder statesman of the dance music scene. With an omnivorous approach to style and genre, Strategy’s explorations have landed on techno label Peak Oil, Bristol's bass-heavy Idle Hands, dreamy house label 100% Silk, dub reggae 7” imprint ZamZam, and legendary ambient label Kranky, among others.
His debut for The Nite Owl Diner serves up four rave-inspired dancefloor cuts: "Future Shock" channels early Joey Beltram with its insistent, driving energy; "Forgotten Encounter" fractures Amens into a 2-step shuffle; "Looks Beautiful From Here" layers lush pads into an epic emotional experience; and "Monsterzellos" closes out with a banging deep bass warble. Sounds from our past recontextualized to point us toward the future."
