ChrisLiebing AMFM🙂

On January 22nd I played my only gig in January, yes, thanks to the omicron wave we had to deal with loads of cancellations once more beginning of this year. But I do think this pandemic is soon over, the world opens up again and we will see us more and more on the dance floor. Nevertheless that one gig that I played in January was an absolute treat. It was for @blackworksclub at the venue La Rivera in Madrid and I am not sure exactly what it was, but the night was a total blast. What a crowd! For those who were there and read this now, thanks so much for those awesome vibes! You went totally wild, jumped on top of each other and didn’t stop raving and smiling, not even only for a minute. What an energy in that place, kind of made up for all the non happening gigs that month. Thank you so much. I hope that comes across in the recording. This is the second of three hours that I played there, hope you enjoy the set!

Luigi Madonna @ Awakenings Festival 2019 (30-06-2019)

am/fm | 262

@juhokusti, DJ, producer and founder of Deep Space Helsinki based in Berlin. 

1/ Who are you? What do you do?
I have been playing record for the last 20 years, I have a radio show called Deep Space Helsinki that I have been doing with my dear friend, Samuli Kemppi, for over 10 years now. We also expanded to a record label of the same name in 2012 and did a couple of vinyl releases but it's been on a hiatus for while. I have also produced music for labels such as Semantica, MindTrip, Reclaim Your City and provided remixes to other labels as well. I have had residencies at Helsinki's Kaiku Club, Kuudes Linja (where we used to organize Deep Space Helsinki parties between 2011-2016) and Ääniwalli but since my move to Berlin in 2016 I've had to give them up, unfortunately. I also share label duties with my friend, Ville Vähäsaari, for our label, No Future But What We Make, but we've only put out one record since we established the label, so things are running pretty slow. Other than that, I am a pretty easy-going guy.

2/ If you were a movie character, who would you like to be?
Godzilla, very randomly.

3/ If music didn't exist, what job would you like to do?
Film Editor

4/ The naughty / improbable anecdote during a gig?
I was kicked out of my own gig once, for selling my free drinks to the customers. There was this shitty bar I was playing with a couple of older guys right when I had started playing records. We got pretty hammered and then these customers kept mistaking the DJ booth for the bar so I thought: "Fuck it, let's get these idiots their drinks and overcharge them". That didn't go too well with the bar management and I was relieved of my duties and got banned from the bar. 

5/ Your podcast in one word? 
Trash.

Chris Liebing is synonymous with techno. His legacy is long assured, but his craft never stops evolving. Whether as label head, podcast curator, DJ or producer, he continues to challenge himself and his audience to explore new realms in the electronic world. And often ahead of the curve, too, from the early, hard-edged and loopy 90s sound which is back en vogue today, through his more stripped-back turn of the millennium minimalism and onto the cinematic atmospheres and broader alternative electronica of his latest albums on Mute. It's no stretch to say, then, that Chris Liebing's story is closely connected to the story of techno itself. 

Liebing is considered a global techno ambassador, but his ambitious album projects and direct club tracks excite and innovate as much as any new school star. A proudly forward-thinking attitude ensures that is the case as his DJ tools and studio setup constantly evolve. He continues to be an early adopter of emerging technology, too, just as he was with vinyl controllers, Traktor and when leading the way with full hybrid/live DJing. 

These days, Liebing incorporates an ever wider sphere of sound into his own work. After an eight-year break from full lengths, 2018's Burn Slow on Mute was a creative rebirth that received critical acclaim and confounded all expectations. It was a melancholic mediation on gothic moods, looming apocalyptic landscapes and optimistic broken-beat techno that drew from his childhood love of Depeche Mode, Gary Numan and the New Romantic movement. 

Remixes for Depeche Mode and Goldfrapp followed alongside a collaborative single with Charlotte De Witte, and 2021 brought a second album on Mute, Another Day. It found Liebing exploring all new ways of expressing both his euphoric and melodic side, all with high-grade technical skill and meticulous sonic craft with a range of collaborators from Miles Cooper Seaton to Polly Scattergood. This exceptional form continued into 2023 as he returned to the club with his Love Those Who Fight With Passion And Faith EP on CLR, a passionate and politically charged call to the dance floor that joined Liebing and Luke Slater’s remix of Depeche Mode’s iconic ‘Ghosts Again’ in the first half of the year. 

Born in Giessen and active ever since the 1990s, Liebing has always platformed the talent around him as much as himself: a long time before they were commonplace, he famously helmed his own CLR podcast. For many years, it was the scene's most influential series, with a who's who of international pioneers at the helm. After that came the equally important AM/FM radio show, but now following a hiatus, the CLR podcast is back and pushing a fresh techno agenda, as is his iconic label of the same name.

In its first chapter, CLR stood for Chris Liebing Records, then Create Learn Realize, and now Create Learn Repeat - a subtle evolution that is at the heart of everything Liebing does. The label will always be synonymous with exciting techno and is now back hosting parties and festival stages. 

Though his music is underpinned by pulsating menace and a stomping sense of drama, Liebing himself is friendly with a famous smile. It is the music that motivates him and the freedom that comes with increased experience. These days there are no limits, no expectations, but a continued love for the art and craft of techno that is taking him down all new creative pathways.
