Chris Liebing today shares a new track from his forthcoming album,
Another Day, set for release
November 19 on Mute.
The new track,
“Fault Line (feat. Miles Cooper Seaton),” is a bittersweet moment on the album. The former Akron/Family man’s rich baritone – which glides over stark hissing beats – is one of his last performances due to his sad and untimely passing earlier this year.
“I am still shocked and deeply saddened by Miles’ passing,” says Liebing.
“He was such a fantastic human and artist, he took my music to another level. I will forever miss our late night conversations on the phone talking about music and life.” Listen to “Fault Line (feat. Miles Cooper Seaton)”
here.
Another Day will be available on double vinyl and CD – both with a silver finish and 16-page booklet – as well as digital platforms. Pre-order
here.
The two tracks already released from the album,
“Whispers and Wires (feat. Ladan)” and
“Something Half Way” have both been given the Liebing club mix treatment, the perfect primer for his forthcoming dates which include appearances in the US, UK, and Europe. Full details below.
MORE ABOUT ANOTHER DAY“With this album, I wanted to take myself out of it as much as possible,” explains Liebing. After three decades working dancefloors with pummeling techno, Liebing has a formidable reputation as a DJ and is certainly comfortable with being in the spotlight, but for his solo work he has chosen a different avenue.
Another Day sees Liebing once again collaborating with an eclectic mix of artists, including several who were involved with
Burn Slow.
Miles Cooper Seaton, in one of his last performances following his sad and untimely passing earlier this year, and
Polly Scattergood lend vocals to a track each, while
Ralf Hildenbeutel returns to produce.
Ladan,
Tom Adams, and
Maria Uzor (Sink Ya Teeth) are new collaborators for Liebing.
Despite Liebing very much directing and driving the shape, tone, and essence of the album, he ultimately views it as one rooted in collaboration. One noted contributor to the album is Mute’s own Daniel Miller.
“Daniel's input was just incredible,” Liebing says.
“He brought his modular setup in our studio and he added this extra flavor.” This added element, combined with Hildenbeutel’s silky production skills, the eclectic presence of the guest vocalists, and Liebing’s intuitive ear for compositions, results in something truly unique.
