Chris Liebing

Chris Liebing (born Christopher Liebing; 11 December 1968) is a German techno DJ, music producer and radio host and the founder of the record label CLR.

Biography Liebing was born in Gießen, Hesse. In the early 1990, he became active on the Frankfurt dance music scene. He opened the Spinclub techno club in 1994, and worked at Eye Q Records in Frankfurt. He formed his first label, 'Audio' in 1996, which was followed in 1999 by CLR.

In 2005, he worked with Speedy J on the Collabs 3000: Metalism album, released by Novamute.

In 2009, he launched the CLR Podcast, which was made available every Monday via iTunes and CLR's own website. The podcast was voiced by Liebing and featured guest mixes from a wide variety of techno DJs. Amongst the more notable guests was Depeche Mode's Martin Gore. The podcast ran weekly until 2015 when the 315th and final episode was broadcast. It was replaced by a new weekly podcast entitled am/fm, which features only mixes and live recordings by Chris Liebing himself.

Liebing has played at Space and Amnesia in Ibiza, Fabric in London, Berghain in Berlin, Cocoricò in Riccione and large festivals such as Time Warp. In 2018, Liebing launched his first album in eight years: Burn Slow on Mute Records. The album art was derived from a painting by Jan Brueghel the Younger.

In May 2023, Liebing did a remix for Depeche Mode's Ghosts Again.

In March 2025, he released his second original album "Burn Slow," which includes vocals by Gary Numan, Cold Cave, Polly Scattergood, Miles Cooper Seaton and Aleen.
