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.

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. 

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.  

Chris will be performing at this year's Ritvales festival on November 2 and 3 at El Parque Norte, in Medellín, Colombia. RITVALES, is the largest outdoor electronic music festival in Colombia, presents the daily lineup for its 2024 edition. RITVALES promises two days of incredible music and experiences, featuring the best electronic music talent on the planet. For more info on Ritvales go to: https://ritvales.com/

COMBINE: Mix Series | Lisa May.

Lisa May, an Indigenous Australian Techno DJ and producer, captivates audiences with her dark, heavy beats and dynamic live performances honed over a decade. Transitioning from vinyl to digital DJing, she crafts flawless sets that energize crowds. Joining Melbourne's Eat The Beat agency in 2023 elevated her career, landing her main stage slots at the city's premier techno venue and supporting renowned DJs. Her studio work shines, with her debut EP on Volta Records gaining recognition, including a remix by Thomas Schumacher and high rankings on Beatport. Lisa's second EP, also on Volta Records, made waves on Spotify's Techno Bunker Playlist. With a packed schedule for 2024 and bookings across Australia, the Nabiac native continues to push boundaries, proving her prowess as a rising techno star.

COMBINE: Mix Series | Sigvard.

Sigvard, Tom Hades’ alternate ego. Launched in the late 90’s with driving techno, containing elements of percussion and very precise resampled material, Tom has evolved over the years in many mixtures of musical styles. During the pandemic lots of time was spent in the studio where he gained his old love back on using external gear and the simplicity, but super effective production style using different layers coming from different gear. Sigvard was born as a fusion between pulsing rhythm and sharp dissonant synths, the result of the above studio working methods. Constantly curious how to improve both production and mixing and mastering techniques, Sigvard is on a constant growth in sound. Do not expect anything but detailed tracks, full of organic and human changes, going from pure direct techno to very complex IDM tracks through ambient soundscapes. Sigvard will not limit himself, the only thing in common will be his love of music and machinery.
