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.

I LOVE THE MUSIC.   DJ ZENPRARYU ∆ ∞ ∞  CANAL EN YOUTUBE SOUNDCLOUD...Saludos Familia y que viva la música..“Me gustan los que se callan y me gustan los que cantan, y de tanto andar conmigo me gusta lo que me pasa.
Me pasan cosas como éstas, aunque no tenga importancia andar contándole a todos todas las cosas que pasan.
Porque uno no vive solo y lo que me pasa le está sucediendo al mundo, única razón y causa.
Pues todito es tan perfecto porque perfecto es Dios, que se mueve alguna estrella cuando arranca una flor, por eso si hay uno, hay dos.
Supe del diablo la noche que al hambriento dije no, también esa noche supe que el diablo es hijo de Dios.
Ando solo por la vida como un toro y dominante modestamente cantor sin pretensión de enseñar, porque si el mundo es redondo no se que es andar adelante, andar y andar, siempre andando nada mas que por andar.
No vine a explicar al mundo, sólo vine a tocar.
No quiero juzgar al hombre, al hombre quiero contar.
Mi condición es la vida y mi camino cantar y cantar a la vida es mi manera de andar.
Un día llegue a Tandil y conocí a un anciano que a falta de inteligencia se le dió por ser muy sabio, le pregunté por Jesús una noche al lindo viejo y ahí mismo lo conocí cuando me alcanzó un espejo.
Yo bailo con mi canción y no con la que me tocan, yo no soy la libertad, pero sí el que la provoca.
Si ya conozco el camino para que he de andar al costado, si la libertad me gusta, para que he de vivir de esclavo.
Elegir, yo siempre elijo más que por mi, por mi hermano y si he elegido ser águila fue por amor al gusano.
Prefiero seguir de pie y no en caballo prestado, alguien por una manzana va siempre quedando a un lado, siempre se llega primero el que va más descargado.
El día que yo me muera no habrá que usar la balanza, pues pa´velar a un cantor con una bilonga alcanza.
Doy la cara al enemigo, la espalda al buen comentario pues el que acepta un halago empieza a ser dominado. El hombre le hace caricias al caballo, pa´montarlo.
Perdón si me propasé y me puse moralejo, nadie puede dar consejos, no hay hombre que sea tan viejo.
Me pongo el sol al hombro y el mundo es amarillo.
Me gusta andar, pero no sigo el camino pues lo seguro no tiene misterio.
Me gusta ir con el verano muy lejos pero volver donde mi madre en invierno. Ver los perros que jamás me olvidaron y los caballos y los abrazos que me dan mis hermanos, me gusta… me gusta… me gusta…”

Erstmals spielte Nils 2012 im Juzi (Göttingen), zu der Zeit prägte überwiegend TechHouse seinen Sound.
Aber Ende 2012 kam es zu einem Wandel, seit dem ist Düsterer Deeper Techno sein Motto!
Im Note bei den Seeriösen durfte er sein können beweisen, außerdem in der Capo beim Ersten Freitag und im StadtRadio Göttingen bei Just Crazy.
