Paul Dickow's Strategy project makes its debut on the superb Under The Spire imprint, and once again it's
a highly limited run of just 100 copies. For this release, look beyond the 5" packaging and you'll find the
music takes the form of a single twenty-minute track spread across a 3"CD. Awareness Is Fruit comes as
a welcome expansion of the multilayered ambiences that made up Dickow's Music For Lamping long-
player, tackling the contemporary drone-scape with an agenda that eschews minimalist convention in
favour of a sparkling, densely populated narrative full of dissolved acoustic timbres, wah-wah filtering
treatments and big, warm bass depth charges. Genre buzzwords like 'kosmische' waft indelibly into the
consciousness, but there's little that's retro about Strategy's sound - these beatless, watery vistas are
psychedelic in a very 21st century sense of the word, bringing humanised, jam-band dynamics to a pristine
electronic idiom.
