I'd suggest to use a calendar table, when you'd like to show data for 2017, then pick up 2017 in the slicer. when to show data for Q1 2017, pick up Q1 in 2017. May I know why you don't like this way?

 

As to your requirement, there's some tricky way with complicated measures, the measures values could vary according to the slicer like 

value =
SWITCH (
    LASTNONBLANK ( yourFilter[YMQ], "" ),
    "Month", CALCULATE (
        SUM ( yourTable[col] ),
        FILTER (
            yourTable,
            yourTable[date] >= DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY ), 1 )
        )
    ),
    "Quarter", CALCULATE (
        SUM ( yourTable[col] ),
        FILTER (
            yourTable,
            yourTable[date] >= DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY ), 1 )
                && CALCULATE (
                    SUM ( yourTable[col] ),
                    FILTER (
                        yourTable,
                        yourTable[date]
                            < DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY ) + 3, 1 )
                    )
                )
        )
    ),
    "Year", CALCULATE (
        SUM ( yourTable[col] ),
        FILTER ( yourTable, yourTable[date] >= DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), 1, 1 ) )
    )
)
