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.

LautOderAus... der Name ist Programm.. Der aus Thüringen stammende Bubi '86 in Mühlhausen geboren und später als Teenager in die Nähe von Kassel gezogen.
Schon früh kam Er mit Musik, auch aus dem elektronischen Genre's in Berührung. 
Damals die wöchentlichen Charts jeden Donnerstag noch mit ,,Kassette/Tape" aufgenommen, legt er heute sowohl mit Software ( Traktor, Fl ) als auch mit Hardware, wie diverse Controller, Club-Mixer, Korg Electribe ESX & EMX etc. auf. 


Dabei hat er sich auf kein bestimmten Stil beschränkt, sondern hat ein breites Spektrum die von smoothen elektronischen Beats wie z.b. Electro, Minimal, Tech-House über Techno und Hardtechno bis hin zu HardTekk reicht und damit nicht nur eine große Masse der elektronischen Freunde anspricht, sondern zudem auch solche, die eher weniger aus der typischen Szene kommen. 
Seine Set's spielt Er meist mit 125/135bpm aber auch gerne Mal mit 170bpm oder flotter. 2009 fing Er an sich das Techno ,,auflegen" beizubringen. Ein knappes Jahrzehnt später, Ende 2019 erlernte er zudem noch das produzieren im HardTekk Genre.
