Chris Wood & Frank Leicher – Two Of Three EP
LNZ 22-6

After their first and all over Germany well acclaimed Deep House production „Geisha“, released on the limited LNZ 20 edition, Chris Wood and Frank Leicher now come up with a complete 3-tracker. With this accordingly titled „Two Of Three“ EP the young team exeeds all expectations.
Already the first track „Into The Jungle“ with almost 9 minutes of play time captures the listener into a new dimension of breathless House tribalism. Be ear witness how Wood and Leicher Voodoo priest alike stich their percussive elements into the body of party puppet to make the will-less audience dance to the point of ecstasy. And now we all know: the haitian jungle begins right behind the city limit of Frankfurt/Main: dark, atmospheric, sultry, full of vivid sounding dangers and the abstract hoots of LNZ serviles on the warpath.
The second track „No Way Back“ is also phenomenous ritualistic, but more freewheeling due to the percussions and bouncing 808-kick completed by roomy reverbs and delays. But also a demonic vocal sample that makes clear: There’s no way back to the safety of the base camp. The final EP track „I Feel The Night“ is masterpiece of housy minimalism with brilliant plucking bass sounds and sunny latin american impetus.
