About Me

Me, Myself, and I
Chris Liebing had his first Residency as a DJ in a small club called "Red Brick" 1991 in Giessen, near Frankfurt. There he was playingall sorts of music from Soul, Hip Hop and Pop to House. In 1993, bying his records at Downtown Records in Giessen, he discovered the more electronic side of music, and one year later, he decided to open up a Techno Club, called "Spinclub". Already beginning of 1995the club had to close down and Chris began working for Eye -Q Records in Frankfurt. During that period, he met his friend and partner Andre Walter. Together they started to built up a studio and worked on music. Later that year, the first record on Global Ambition was released. Also together with Tommy Bingel from Downtown Records and Toni Rios, they founded the house Label SOAP. Various Records and Remixes were released, like Traveller on Harthouse, Noosa Heads and E.H.R. on Soap, Strictly Ryth, and others.

In November 1995, Chris had a chance to play at the OMEN in Frankfurt ans shortly after became Resident DJ. About a year later, influenced by his Djing, he created "fine Audio Recordings" together with Under Cover Music Group. Chris gained first worldwide recognition with releases like Audio 07 and Audio 11.

Between 1978 and 1999 he hosted his weekly radioshow on Evosonic Radio. Very much happened than in 1999, Chris played the first time for the U60311 and started his Residency every first Friday of a month with " Es ist Freitagaaabend�!", playing along with his favourite DJ´s and Live Acts from around the world.

He joined the Cocoon Agency in Frankfurt to take care about his growing Booking Schedule and also in the same year he moved on with his Labelwork and created his own Recordcompany "CLR". From then on the Labels CLR, Clretry, CLAU, Stigmata and Soap were distributed by Prime in England.

Since August 2000 you can hear Chris and Pauli Steinbach in their "Pitch Control" on HR XXL every Thurday night. In may 2001 he mixed this double CD ans started working on his Album for CLR hopefully released within the following year. In 2002 he left Cocoon Booking to manage the Booking Schedule by himself. From now CLR is taking care also of his Bookings

    It's no overstatement to say that Chris Liebing is one of the biggest and brightest stars of European Techno, and he is in fact confirmed year by year in the DJ Mag list of Top djs of the world. From early beginnings in the late 80s, working at seminal label Eye-Q, Chris soon started a busy career in club promotion, djing and production. In the early 90s, a prestigious DJ residency at the Omen club in Frankfurt, his expert programming and his succesful releases on his 'Fine Audio Recordings' label, put him firmly on the map of the best electronic dance music. In the mid 90s, his popularity grew bringing further opportunities: a weekly radio show, a new club residency at U60311 and the set up of his new label CLR (and sublabels Clretry, CLAU, Stigmata and Soap). At the beginning of the new millenium, a new successfull challenge has been the collaboration with the experimental techno producer Speedy J. Both artists, in fact, were eager to join forces and play shows which were "dynamic, varied and adventurous and able to keep the crowds attention throughout the entire set". Their 12" for the Collabs 300 series and then the album METALISM, both on Novamute, are among the best techno releases of recent years.
