Song of the Week: Chris Liebing & Charlotte de Witte – ‘In Memory’
Charlotte de Witte and Chris Liebling have often attracted attention through B2B sets. The two seem to get along very well musically. As a logical consequence they have now released a joint EP. Charlotte and Chris are among my favorites when it comes to raw techno sounds. My song of the week is the so-called B-side of the EP, ‘In Memory‘. I also like the track ‘Liquid Slow‘ very much. But the acid elements in the second track convinced me completely. On RA there is a good review about this release.
Of course the track is at the top of the ‘Trending Techno’ playlist:
Also new on the ‘Trending Techno‘ playlist: Take It Off (Klanglos), Tootski – AlBird Remix (MESS:IAH), Skytheme – Extended Mix (Koen Groeneveld), Sangre II – Original (Oscar Mulero), Do It (Anna Reusch) and Betelgeuse – Original Mix (Nikoretti).
Chris Liebling and Charlotte de Witte complement each other perfectly. Here is a B2B set of the two artists from Miami Pool Party 2019, at The Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel:
