Resident Advisor kicked off a fun video series called Origins where they feature a producer returning to their hometown while he/she recounts their early days. In the first video of the series, they profile CLR label head Chris Liebing as he gives a very intimate account of his childhood, quitting school to managing his own club, his bankruptcy, and more:
CLR label head Chris Liebing continues to do what he does best, create monster techno sets that enthrall fans the world over. I've been watching Chris Liebing sets over the Internet for quite a while now and in my opinion he is the best peak time techno DJ on the planet. Don't believe me, just watch this 2 hour set and find out for yourself:
From an interview conducted by Lessthan3:
"I work with two computers that are linked via ethernet cable. One runs Traktor, which is the master clock, and one runs Ableton. I'm using an Allen & Heath Xone:92 with sends and returns, so I have four channels coming out of Traktor. I have Maschine running as a plugin in Ableton, and I control that with another controller. And I have the internal effects of Ableton running, as well as external effects via Traktor. It's all automatically synced, and some people try to give me sh*t about it, but it has to be for the way I play."
Who cares about beat matching when DJs have this at their disposal.
