Press Info:
Lisbon’s DJ Dextro returns to Chris Liebing’s CLR with the ‘Age of Aquarius’ EP, marking his third EP for the label, set for release 28th August 2026.

DJ Dextro’s ‘Age of Aquarius’ EP kicks off with the absorbing ‘Sempre os Mesmos’, opening up with impossibly tight, taught kick drums and sleek, howling bass. The precise, mechanical rhythm comes alive with freaky sound effects, soft hi-hats, and various warped, fizzing stabs that bring tension and a freaky, alien character. ‘Conjectura’ is another brilliantly deep and heavy Techno roller with sonar pulses and loopy synth motifs that all serve to hypnotise mind and body, while ‘Os Vendidos’ sweeps with bass and another precision-engineered rhythm that is sleek, futuristic and absorbingly dark. This beautiful bleak vision of a post-human world closes with the buoyant Techno of ‘Age of Aquarius’, which is imbued with a subtle sense of hope and euphoria that gets you on your toes.

DJ Dextro is one of the architects of European Techno. He has held several vital residences across the last three decades, all while turning out meticulously crafted deep, dark but warm Techno for the likes of CLR, Second State, Planet Rhythm, Terminal M, and his own Codein Music. His sound is focused on rhythm and groove, with a touch of old school but plenty of evocative, cinematic designs that make it as appealing to the head as it is to the body, once more on full display with the ‘Age of Aquarius’ EP for Chris Liebing’s essential label.

Founded by influential Techno lynchpin Chris Liebing in 1999 and reemerging in 2021 after a five-year hiatus, Create Learn Repeat (CLR) has hosted a range of artists like DEAS, Shlomi Aber, Risa Taniguchi, Truncate, and more, while also focusing on developing newer acts in the scene such as The Southern and Klint.

Press Info:
Tokyo-based producer and DJ Risa Taniguchi returns to Chris Liebing’s CLR with the ‘Magnetic’ EP, landing 26th June 2026. She has released four EPs for the label, alongside releases on labels such as MOOD, Second State and more, and has won support from artists including Amelie Lens, Perc, and Daniel Avery.

Risa Taniguchi’s ‘Magnetic’ EP opens with the title, riding on thumping kicks, distant bell tones, and cavernous sub-bass that gives the groove its full weight. Carefully sculpted details, from groaning textures to dusty hi-hats, add depth throughout as the track unfolds into a driving and cinematic techno workout. ‘Masks’ keeps the pressure high with a more extroverted energy, layering hammering percussion, fractured synth lines, and vocal yelps into an urgent peak-time cut charged with tension and momentum.

Founded by influential techno lynchpin Chris Liebing in 1999 and reemerging in 2021 after a five-year hiatus, Create Learn Repeat (CLR) has hosted a range of artists like Dubfire, Flug, Bjarki, Shlomi Aber, and more while also focusing on developing newer acts in the scene, such as The Southern, and Klint.
