Chris Liebing returns to District 8 to do a three hour set tonight for the Subject crew amidst much excitement. Liebing is a German DJ, Producer, radio host of a weekly show and the driving force behind the labels CLR and Spinclub Recordings.

His sound has continuous­ly evolved during his DJ career, always true to his Techno roots. He was one of the first DJS that used the new possibilit­ies in the course of the digitaliza­tion of music in a consequent and creative way.

The real-time manipulati­on of the individual elements plays an important role in his sets. His DJ setup offers him practicall­y endless possibilit­ies.

He is a worldwide requested DJ and also part of the Collabs live act, together with the Dutch producer Speedy J.

His production­s and remixes appear in the play lists of numerous renowned DJS. Starting off his career in Giessen,germany in 1990, he was mainly playing Hip Hop, Soul, Pop and House. Soon after his growing passion for electronic music saw the opening of his own club named Spinclub in 1994.

Making fledgling moves into production around this time also he had his first studio outings and founded the label Soap Records.

A job at the iconic Trance label Eye Q Records in Frankfurt provided him with useful experience­s and contacts in the scene and in true DJ fairy story style he was called to fill in for a friend at the legendary Omen club, received enthusiast­ic reactions from the crowd and ended up resident for four years until the club closed.

At the beginning of the 00s he founded the pure remix label Clretry and released mixes by producers like Marco Carola, Gaetano Parisio, Adam Beyer, Steve Rachmad, Speedy J., Chris Mc Cormack, DJ Rush, Ian J. Richardson and Ben Sims.

He also started to work on his first artist album which received massive media attention and acclaim across the techno world.

Some 10 years ago the first residency of the Spinclub Radio Show started in Ibiza on Ibiza Sonica.

Quickly followed by another weekly slot on Ibiza Global and on to bigger and better things – support tonight is from Moduse (Reza Fer) and tickets are €20 with doors at 11pm.
