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.

Heisenberg wurde am 30. August 1980 in Waldbröl geboren und wuchs in einem kleinen Dorf in Rheinland-Pfalz auf. Bereits im Alter von 15 Jahren entdeckte er seine Leidenschaft für Musik, als er begann, erste Tracks mit einfachen Mitteln und großer Neugier zu erstellen.

Seinen prägenden Moment erlebte er, als er die TV-Sendung „HR3 ClubNight“ sah. An diesem Abend war Chris Liebing der Gast-DJ – ein Auftritt, der Heisenberg so sehr inspirierte, dass für ihn klar war: Es mussten Platten aufgelegt werden. Sein Fokus stand fest: Techno!

Im Laufe der Jahre hat er sich von vielen internationalen Künstlern der Technoszene inspirieren lassen und seinen eigenen Stil kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt. Seine Leidenschaft für Musik ist dabei unverkennbar – damals wie heute.

Heisenberg hat verschiedene Genres der elektronischen Musik durchlaufen und dabei seinen unverwechselbaren Techno-Sound geformt. Stets auf der Suche nach neuen Klängen, nutzt er seine Kreativität, um energiegeladene und mitreißende Rhythmen zu schaffen, die das Publikum auf der Tanzfläche in Bewegung versetzen.

Techno ist für ihn mehr als nur ein Genre – es ist eine Lebenseinstellung.
Techno…….what else?

forever socially distant. split time on the west coast.
