“You order a circuit board and you get maybe some chips. There’s the paperwork that tells you where to put stuff and you solder it in and hope that you don’t make any mistakes. ”The 32-year-old Dickow has made very few mistakes creating his own elastic malleable electronic music for 10 years under the guise Strategy but soldering is new. Sporting a blue Ben Sherman shirt and thin wire-frame glasses he strains to avoid hitting his head on his home studio’s low ceiling as he searches his computer to play me cuts from his latest project. Dickow gets animated and visibly geeky when talking about his craft cuing up samples of a few recent pieces (he’s taken a cappella versions of songs by the Beastie Boys and Erik B Rakim and created shifting amorphous textures to put behind them) as he tries to find the remix he just completed for Starfucker’s “Rawnald Gregory Erickson the Second. ” Though Strategy released two of the decade’s best electronic records (Future Rock a gorgeous amalgam of dub Krautrock and dreamy pop; and last year’s ambient suite Music For Lamping) he’s better known for his remixes for artists like the Blow the Juan MacLean and Stars as Eyes. “I keep almost everything of the original or almost none of it” Dickow says of his remixes.
