Chris Liebing joins for DifferentSound Podcast #209.

We are excited to present our next special guest in the mixtape series: the legendary Chris Liebing!
Chris Liebing has been a driving force in the techno scene for decades, creating a whole genre back in the 90s with hard, fast banging techno and continuing to push the limits of electronic music today, His infectious energy and friendly demeanor have made him a beloved figure in the industry, and his dedication to elevating other artists has helped the scene flourish

Growing up in the German town of Giessen, Liebing’s journey has taken him from a passion for early electronic music to opening a nightclub (“Spinclub”), working in the Eye Q record store and an acclaimed, lasting career in techno. Dedicating himself to a life of creating and sharing music, Liebing has pioneered the European techno scene whilst always staying true to himself.His DJ sets have forever been fast-paced and immersive, physical workouts, though in more recent years they have tended towards a deeper, hybrid approach of layering multiple recordings into something uniquely his. The track selection draws from an encyclopedic knowledge of the techno genre and its history; he interacts with the crowd, intermittently smiling and retreating deep into concentration. An extensive collaboration with DJ software developer Native Instruments has provided Chris tailor-made, DJ technology for himself, and his expertise has provided the same for DJs around the world. As well as club and festival performances, Chris has a weekly radio show called AM/FM; like his involvement in the NovaMute label, it’s one of many ways he stays ahead of the curve with new music.

DifferentSound invites Chris Liebing / Podcast #209

Cisco Ferreira aka The Advent is a true legend of the techno scene. The young Portuguese Cisco discovered Acid House when he started clubbing in London in the 80s and since then his life's goal has been about making his mark on the electronic music scene. Or, as he put it himself: “I’ve been doing this for quite a few years and I’m not going anywhere.” This sums it up pretty well. You won’t see him naked, shooting promo videos, carrying a dog, or publicly worrying about the sincerity of the average EDM jockey. He’s everything about techno you’ve learned to love, without the circus.

Fresh out of college, Cisco’s hunger for sound landed him a job as assistant sound-engineer in several recording studios. There he learned about the art of translating feelings to frequencies, while at the same time recording various high profile artists from the world of Rock, Pop, Dance, and Reggae. When acid label ‘Jack Trax’ moved in next-door, Cisco started recording for the likes of Adonis, Fingers Inc, Marshall Jefferson, and Derrick May. These rendezvous sparked the inspiration for his first EPs on R&S and Fragile.

In 1994 Ferreira signed a record deal for 12 EPs and 3 albums together with Colin McBean. This was the beginning of an era during which the duo set a worldwide standard for high quality underground Electro and Techno. They hit the world with a refreshing sound, both as The Advent, and ‘G Flame (Cisco) and Mr G’, the alias Colin is still using. Nowadays The Advent is a solo project, bombarding crowds around the world with its trademark raw, energetic sound. After playing after festival and event during his tenure imaginable, we are truly honoured to welcome him to the series.

We are thrilled to present an exclusive mix from the iconic Techno maestro, Chris Liebing. A luminary in the techno world since the 1990s, Liebing's journey began in the city of Giessen, Germany. His meteoric rise was marked by the acclaimed “Evosonic'' radio show that resonated across Germany's airwaves. In 1999, capitalizing on his rising fame and successful collaborations, Liebing established the now-renowned record label CLR (initially Chris Liebing Recordings, later rebranded to Create Learn Recognize), solidifying his status in the techno realm.

Over the years, Liebing's influence and prestige have only soared. He has graced the decks at every prestigious club and festival globally, forging collaborations with some of the most eminent names in the industry such as Ben Klock, Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Adam Beyer, Charlotte De Witte, and Drumcell, among others.

Today, we're beyond excited to showcase Chris Liebing's 2023 set from the famed Elsewhere in Brooklyn. Elsewhere has been a trailblazer in Bushwick's official club scene and has evolved into a versatile venue, welcoming a diverse range of artists for live performances. This set is a testament to Liebing's enduring legacy and his continuous innovation in the dynamic world of techno.

Undermind Podcast Episode 48: Chris Liebing

What a magic night that was 😍🤯
So happy to have been back at Hammahalle after all those years. The energy was super intense and I was sad to stop „already“ after 3hours. Tbh, i thought that i will end up playing a bit deeper as it was getting late/early but nope - no chance 🥵😀
Hope you enjoy the set as much as i did playing it! 🫶🏼

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/

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.

Screens Don't Capture Reality™ . Living in the moment does. 

Undermind is a creative collective, music label and animation studio inviting our community into deeper self-discovery by asking:

Who are you when you’re free?

A love letter to 90’s warehouse raves, freedom of expression is the only rule. Our community finds beauty in difference of opinion, style, and identity—getting lost in the unknown, wholly immersing ourselves in the microcosm of the moment. 

Everything we do questions fundamental human truths, challenging each other to reevaluate perceptions of reality in favor of a better, more inclusive tomorrow. 

Our inspiration comes from the origins of rave culture, before phones lit up the dance floor, with hyper-digital looks into the future. All Undermind artists and their artforms have total freedom to create and collaborate without reservation, building a supportive, creative-first community. So far, this has culminated into a multi-year podcast, 3D animation studio, and experience driven events and galleries. 

It’s time for us to break away from the predictive mundane to build the world we crave. No matter how you got here, we celebrate who you are.
