Review:
Berlin-based party Leisure System continue to grow their label outpost with this high-grade three-tracker from one of the main residents, Barker. The event's tendencies towards dancefloor-minded electronica are more than evident on Like An Animal. The title track comes to life on a bed of percussive techno, only to drop away to a bass-loaded stepper with industrial hits and a dark pop edge. "I Feel" come from the Plaid school of melodic content, only to be ripped at the seams by a ferocious amen break and then splintered into fragments. Bursting with originality and a healthy balance of raveability and intellect, this EP promises a lot for the future of Barker.
